Colossians3:4

4 When Christ who is our life shall appear , then shall ye also appear with him in glory .

Which will be according to the purpose and promise of God with whom it is laid up, c. 1.5. when Christ by whom they live shall so appear that they shall be like him, 1 Ioh. 3.2. and be taken to be with him in the heavenly inheritance, 1 Pet. 1.4. then their conformity to him began here partly in holiness and partly in sufferings, Rom. 8.18. shall be compleated at last in glory and felicity, Phil. 3.21. Heb. 11.26, 35.

And then shall these adopted Children be brought into glory with him, Heb. 2.10. out of whose hands none shall be able to pullthem, Ioh. 10.28. but however the World look upon them, as despicable, Ioh. 16.2. and sometimes they are so in their own eyes wherein oftimes there be tears, so that they can see but as through a glass darkly, Psal. 31.22. 1 Cor. 13.12. but then they shall see Christ face to face, all tears shall be wip'd away from their eyes, Rev. 7.17. and at the last day▪ they shall shine as the Son in glory, Mat. 13.43. 1 Cor. 15 43, 53. 2 Thess. 1.7, 10, 12.

Marginal references: 1 Cor. 15.43.
