Resurrection of the Body (88)
  1. This blog is a part of our Advent series on the hope we find in, through and given by Christ. Each week’s installment will look at hope from a different perspective with special emphasis on corresponding passages of Scripture.
  2. He is holding you in the faith, even if you imagine your faith has failed you.
  3. The desire to go home—or to find the place where one truly belongs—is latent in every human being.
  4. On episode 6 we heard from Dr. Mike Horton on the resurrection of Jesus and the hope it gives us. On this episode, our good friend from Mockingbird ministries, Dave Zahl, helped us think through the final resurrection, our human flesh and the Gospel truths that this clause has to teach us.
  5. Perhaps you’ll forgive my reticence to care very much about all of this End of Days talk as it seems that opinions on the matter are very personal and can be really intense.
  6. His consolation will accompany us in the midst of sickness and death. He will strengthen us, even strengthen us to carry the cross of old age.
  7. This is why a Christian must keep learning to forget himself so long as he lives.
  8. Heaven is not our ultimate hope. Our promise is not to live forever riding on rainbows and soaring in the clouds.
  9. The story of Christ crucified has a happy ending. Jesus has conquered the grave. He beat the death rap.
  10. In the twinkling of that eye the perishable will become imperishable, and our bodies will be changed and become more glorious than we ever could have imagined.
  11. Then He went to the coffin. He touched it, like a carpenter sizing up the piece of wood He plans to turn into some sort of new creation, running His hand down its side.
  12. You are changing as your eyes move over these sentences. You are aging. You are on your way to death. And nothing, absolutely nothing, can alter that fact.
