This is a wonderful combination, and begins where the combination, Jesus Christ, ends. It occurs 47 times. The combination leads the intelligent student of Scripture to begin with Christ in glory at God's right hand. A Scripture or two showing this will be helpful. We read, that God "hath raised us [believers] up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus." (Eph. 2:6). As we read these words we instinctively think of Christ in glory. Again Eph. 2:10 says of believers, "We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works." Our thoughts turn to Christ in glory as the One, from whom comes all our spiritual blessing. Again we read, "My God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." (Phil. 4:19).
There the riches are said to be His riches in glory. Finally we are bidden to "Consider... the High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus." (Heb. 3:1).
Not till our Lord was glorified did He become the High Priest of His saints. We are told that if He were on earth He should not be a priest (Heb. 8:4). So very plainly does the combination, Christ Jesus, link up our thoughts with our blessed Lord in glory.
