Are you tired of your present body? Do you want a better body, a permanent body, a body that will not weaken, droop, bruise, break, die, or decay? How does it sound to have a heavenly body, a body with powers and abilities that no human has possessed, currently or previously? Does an immortal body in paradise excite your heart? If all these are things you desire, they can be yours in Jesus Christ.
The believer in Jesus has a grand resurrection from death in store for them. Adam and Eve, because they sinned, lost the glory and eternal life that was theirs. (Genesis 3:7). They became merely a flimsy tent that wore out and dissolved back into dust. Jesus came to provide the glory that they lost by removing the sin they introduced into human existence through his spilled blood.
Apostle Paul compares our present body, which is like a tent that will be destroyed, to the new Christian’s body, which is like a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. (1) Our present frail body causes us to groan. Our new body will cause us to rejoice. In Christ, we will not be found naked as Adam and Eve were when they sinned (3; Genesis 3:7). Those who believe and hope in Christ will be clothed in glory as he is in glory. Seek Jesus, and you will live.
