Bible Note: Hi Searcher, What do you make of the passage: 2 Cor 5:2 For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed with our dwelling from heaven, 2 Cor 5:3 inasmuch as we, having put it on, will not be found naked. 2 Cor 5:4 For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up by life. Do you think we will be disembodied spirits in heaven, prior to our physical resurrection? Love in Christ, Mark |
