Such a tight link between justification and glorification!
Romans 8: Whom He predestined,
these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom
He justified, these He also glorified.
Notice that "glorified" is a past tense verb? It's not just a "some-day" thing; it's a done deal. It's happened. And it happened because we were declared righteousness (aka, "justified").
And what does Simeon sing? "My eyes have seen Thy salvation ... the glory of Thy people Israel." Our glorification is that we have been saved from our sin.
