1 | Actual bodies in heaven? | 1 John 3:2 | Beja | 213897 | ||
I'm sorry if what I posted made it sound like we don't know what state we are going to be in, that is not at all what I meant. It is my opinion that what John was talking about in the verse I posted was that we aren't sure all the ways our heavenly bodies (as it is called by paul) are going to be distinct from our earthly ones. I think that is all he was referring to, not that it is uncertain if we will have human bodies. If my post sounded that way then I certainly apologize. Like I said though, the high light for me is going to be that we finally are free from this cursed inclination towards sin, that we can finally stop being our own worst enemies as far as righteousness is concerned. The main point I was wanting to introduce is that there is no need to speculate as to every aspect of what is going to be different since it is clearly not known. Thank you for clarifying my post if it sounded as if it meant more. In Love, Beja |

Sorry... I am wont to pontificate! :-) Besides which, I was thinking this week about that error, which is being promulgated by Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel. |

Dear Doc, I know Chuck Smith to be a Good And Godly man who remains very close to God's Word. And by Implication, close to our Lord. I read the list in your post of verses you pasted out of the London Baptist's Confession of Faith, and they do little, if anything in responding to the question of what our bodies will be like, they only give reference as to where our body will be. Our bodies are unable to be unchanged in the state we are to become. Therefore, In Pastor Smith's exposition, he stated that it is unwise to speculate upon the true nature of our resurrected bodies, since no one really knows. Can I ask you to give one verse to support that our bodies will be unchanged, or the same as we know them in this life? Sorry, -I just prefer anticipation above speculation (o; In Him, keliy |

Hi, Keliy... Interesting, that Smith says, "it is unwise to speculate upon the true nature of our resurrected bodies" given that post #213934 has so much of that. So, were those his unwise speculations, or your own? You wrote, "Can I ask you to give one verse to support that our bodies will be unchanged, or the same as we know them in this life?" Yes, you can. Let's not use straw men arguments, though. In Him, Doc |
