OUR TWO BODIES : TERRESTRIAL AND CELESTIAL
Did you know we have two bodies ? The Word of God says so.
I CORINTHIANS 15:35 But some men will say, "How are the dead raised up ? and with what body do they come ?"
15:36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened except it die :
THE FLESH CANNOT BE MADE ALIVE ; IT DIES.
15:37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain :
15:38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased Him, and to every seed his own body.
HE CREATED EVERYBODY IN THAT SEED AND IT PLEASED HIM.
15:39 All flesh is not the same flesh : but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
NOT ALL FLESH IS THE SAME FLESH.
15:40 There are also celestial (heavenly) bodies, and bodies terrestrial (earthy) : but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
WE HAVE TWO BODIES : THE EARTHY AND THE HEAVENLY.
15:41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars : for one star differeth from another star in glory.
15:42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption ; it is raised in incorruption :
NOBODY STAYS IN A HOLE ON THE GROUND ; WE ARE ALL CHANGED INTO THE SPIRITUAL BODY PREPARING FOR JUDGMENT.
"To be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." (II CORINTHIANS 5:8).
15:43 It is sown in dishonor ; it is raised in glory : it is sown in weakness ; it is raised in power :
THE FLESH BODY IS WEAK BUT NOT THE SPIRITUAL BODY.
15:44 It is sown a natural body ; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
15:45 And so it is written, "The first man Adam was made a living soul ;" the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
THE LAST ADAM WAS CHRIST.
15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural ; and afterward that which is spiritual.
BUT NOT FIRST THE SPIRITUAL, BUT THE NATURAL.
15:47 The first man is of the earth, earthy : the second man is the Lord from heaven.
15:48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy : and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
15:49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
IN OTHER WORDS, WE LOOK THE SAME IN THE SPIRITUAL BODY AS WE DO IN THE FLESH.
15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God ; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
IN OTHER WORDS, FLESH CANNOT ENTER HEAVEN ; ONLY OUR SPIRITUAL BODY CAN. FLESH IS SINFUL AND CANNOT BE WITH GOD.
GOD BLESS
