b'As Christians, we often wonder what our resurrection bodies will be like. It\\u2019s easy to ask, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153How could the body be raised? What would postmortem life even look like?\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d\\nPaul answers the question in 1 Corinthians 15. He discusses differences between our bodies now and our bodies as they will be after the resurrection. Our bodies are like seeds that go into the ground and are raised in better condition.\\nOur bodies are mortal now, but at the resurrection they will be immortal. This doesn\\u2019t just refer to age, like Tolkien\\u2019s elves, but to any kind of hurt or sickness. In our broken state, we easily get injured and ill. Our eyes get bags under them. Sometimes we have to use crutches just to move around. We get sick and vomit our food. Not so at the resurrection. We will be healthy, strong, and indestructible. We will glow with health, running and dancing with eternal youth and vitality. We will live forever to honor our King, Jesus.\\nWe are a race of sinful, dying people. Our ancestors and their ancestors fought to stay alive, sinned against each other, and died. The human race is locked in a never-ending cycle of sin and death. It is our natural state. But that\\u2019s not the way it will always be.\\nAt the resurrection, our bodies will be raised by the power of the Holy Spirit. That\\u2019s why our resurrection bodies are called \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153spiritual bodies\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d in verses 44-46. The Holy Spirit will not only put us back together, but He will take away our mortality and our sinfulness. He will make us like Christ. \\u2022 Kevin Zeller\\n\\u2022 What are you most looking forward to about your resurrection body? \\n\\u2022 What questions do you have about the resurrection?
