Have you heard people say that our faith is dynamic and is ever changing with the world? Do you watch as the very tenets of our faith are confronted, and churches adjust them to suit the ebb and flow of society’s whims? Well that reasoning is not truth, and places our will, and the world’s views above God’s will, and the teaching of Jesus Christ.
It is one thing to say we are Christians, and that Jesus is our Lord, but until we take on His image, and walk as He walked, then we have missed the mark. We can dress ourselves up in all the religion we like, and not win a day in heaven without assuming the likeness of Christ. So if you tell me you go to church every Sabbath, and that you pray each day, or that you have been baptized and take communion... I might still look at you and ask “then why don’t you reflect Jesus?” When you look at your own reflection do you see Jesus looking back?
What will we look like in heaven? I have heard that question many times, and heard it put in many different ways. Young healthy people ask it in curiosity, and the aged or infirmed ask it in fear, or dread. Can we really know? Let’s explore some scripture regarding our redemption bodies.
