A Response
All
those who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior will
receive a new body fit for heaven and eternal life. Our
present, earthly bodies are perishable and subject to death,
but by God's power, in an instant, they shall be changed
into a new body at the resurrection.
God's promise of eternal
life is God's gift of salvation to all those who believe in
Christ.
1Co 15:42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is
sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
1Co 15:50-57 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood
cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption
inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all
shall not sleep (die), but we shall all be changed, in a
moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for
the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible
must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on
immortality. But when this corruptible shall have put on
incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality,
then it shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death
is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy victory? O
death, where is thy sting? The sting of death is sin; and
the power of sin is the law: but thanks be to God, who
giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Note: This is also known as the rapture. It is written to
the church and there will be believers living at the time
this resurrection occurs. For those who claim that the
rapture is a fallacy the Apostle Paul says,
1Co 15:12-15 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the
dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection
of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead,
then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then
is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and
we are found false witnesses of God; because we have
testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised
not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
