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

Explanation: Okay, let’s break down this beautiful verse from Colossians 3:4 together! It’s a really powerful message about the future. Here's what it means in simpler terms: Basically, it says that when Jesus Christ returns to Earth – he’ll return to live and die with us – we will be resurrected and made alive with him. Let’s unpack that a bit: “Christ, who is our life”: This refers to Jesus. He's not just a historical figure; he’s the central figure of Christianity. “Shall appear”: This means Jesus will manifest himself again. He won’t simply be present; he’ll come back in full glory. “Then shall ye also appear with him in glory”: This is the key part! “Ye” refers to us – meaning you and I . When Jesus returns, he will make us part of his life again, and we will be resurrected and glorified alongside him. “In glory” means we’ll be made new, like being transformed into something more beautiful and perfect. It's a promise of eternal life and resurrection. It suggests that our lives after death won’t end, but rather become part of a glorious future with Jesus Christ. Think of it this way: We are called to live righteously now, to be good people, and to love God and others. When Jesus returns, he's going to make us more like that – more righteous, more loving, and more connected to him. Do you want me to explain any of this further?
