God is described as Glory (Shekinah) in Ex 16:7; Ps 104:31; and Isa 60:1. In the New Testament Jesus shares the glory of God (Matt 25:31; 1 Cor 2:8; Heb 1:3).
When the new age arrives with the birth of Jesus Christ, the names of the three persons who comprise the trinity are made more explicit. These names fulfill the deeper meanings of the Old Testament names for God.
In the New Testament God is known as Father (Matt 5:16; 28:19) and Abba (Mark 14:36; Gal 4:6). Jesus is known as Son (Matt 11:27), Son of God (John 9:35), and Son of man (Matt 8:20), Messiah (John 1:41), Lord (Rom 14:8), Word (John 1:1), Wisdom (1 Cor 1:30), Bridegroom (Mark 2:19), Shepherd (John 10:11), Vine (John 15:1), Light (John 1:9), and "I AM" (John 8:12). The Holy Spirit is known as the Helper (John 14:16).
