" RESURRECTION (BODIES) "

How are you today? I just wanted to thank you for stopping by. Today we will be looking into a very real part of our existence. You see it's vital that each person walking this earth comes to know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. Today's subject matter is our " RESURRECTED BODIES."

First things first, if death ended it all, enjoying the moment would be all that matters. But those of us who are BORN AGAIN know that there is LIFE BEYOND the grave and that our life on earth is only a preparation for our life that will never end. What you do TODAY MATTERS FOR ETERNITY.

In light of eternity, sin is a foolish gamble. Have you as a Christian ever been asked about " How are the dead raised? " And with what kind of body do they come? " From the Word of God this is what our resurrected bodies will be like. Question: If you could select your own body, what kind would you choose - Strong, Athletic, or Beautiful? Paul was mindful to explain that we will be recognized in our resurrected bodies, yet they will be better than we can imagine, for they will be made to live forever. We will still have our own personalities and individualism, but these will be perfected through Christ's work.

For God's reasoning the Bible does not reveal everything that our resurrected bodies will be able to do, but we know they will be perfect, without sickness or disease. For those of us who have experienced pain and suffering this is Great News! So that we're clear our present bodies are perishable and prone to decay. Our resurrection bodies will be transformed. These spiritual bodies will not be limited by the Law of Nature.

This does not necessarily mean we'll be super people, but our bodies will be different from and more capable than our present earthly bodies. Our spiritual bodies will not be weak, will never get sick, and will never die.

LAST POINT: Keeping company with those who deny the resurrection could corrupt good Christian character. Beware, never allow your relationships with UNBELIEVERS to lead you away from Christ or cause your faith to waver.

Until Next Time...
