“But our
citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord
Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his
control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious
body.” (vv.20-21)
The
scriptures tell us in 1 John 3:2, “When we see Jesus, we shall be like Him”.
Not only will our bodies be changed to be like His, but all things will be subdued,
put in order, made right. No more sickness, no more death, all tears will be wiped away, and we shall be
reunited with those who have gone before us in Christ.
Yes we as
Christians still eagerly await the second coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ – for He will solve every problem, answer every question, and right
every wrong.
The Truth
“But God,
who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even
when we were dead in our sins, made us alive together with Christ, and raised
us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ
Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace
in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.” (Ephesians 2:4-7)
