Here is the list of Scripture references we'll be looking at this Sunday:

Romans 8:28-29

28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 
29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

Bringing Glory to God

1 Corinthians 10:31
11 whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies--in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 

Psalm 29:2
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness.

Our Salvation in Jesus Christ  
Romans 10:9-10

9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.10 For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.

Ephesians 2:8-9
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,   9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

Romans 8:1
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:9
You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. 

 Romans 8:14
For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

Romans 8:17
and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

Conformed to the Image of Christ

Bodily -
Philippians 3:20-21

20 But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

21 who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.

Hebrews 1:2-3

2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.

3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 
  
1 John 3:2
Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. 

Romans 6:5
For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.

Spiritually -
Hebrews 2:9-11

9 But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone. 
10 For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the founder of their salvation perfect through suffering. 
11 For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one source. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brothers,

May the Lord bless your week.
