It’s the same with the resurrection of the dead: a rotting body is put into the ground, but what is raised won’t ever decay. It’s degraded when it’s put into the ground, but it’s raised in glory. It’s weak when it’s put into the ground, but it’s raised in power. It’s a physical body when it’s put into the ground, but it’s raised as a spiritual body. If there’s a physical body, there’s also a spiritual body. So it is also written, The first human, Adam, became a living person, and the last Adam became a spirit that gives life. But the physical body comes first, not the spiritual one—the spiritual body comes afterward. The first human was from the earth made from dust; the second human is from heaven. The nature of the person made of dust is shared by people who are made of dust, and the nature of the heavenly person is shared by heavenly people. We will look like the heavenly person in the same way as we have looked like the person made from dust. (1 Corinthians 15:42-49, CEB)
We are a body made from dust, and one day our bodies will return to dust, but we also believe and confess as a Christian church that we will be raised anew in body and we will be with God for all eternity.
We will be raised anew and live forever in a place with no decay or death.
Death here is merely a step in the process.
Know we will be made of something that will last forever when God’s kingdom is made fully known.
You will not decay.
Loving People. Loving God.
