That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
Glory in the Lord (Jeremiah 9:23-24) - not in the flesh, nor in the world (1 Corinthians 1:29). In contrast to morbid slavish self-abasement, Paul joins with humility the elevating consciousness of our dignity in Christ. God strips us of self-glory, that we may be clothed with true glory in Him.
