WE'LL GET A NEW BODY, YOU KNOW

Hopefully when we're called home to be with the Lord, our resurrection body won't look like Homer Simpson. But it will be in the future, and if that's what God wants for us, then He knows best.

But what do we know about our resurrection bodies? 1Cor. 15: 35-58 addresses the raising of the dead. Paul tells us that we will be recognizable in our resurrected bodies, but they will be better than we can imagine. So I guess we won't be looking like a Simpson after all. They'll not break down ever. (Phil 3:21) The best thing of all--they'll be bodies like that of Jesus.

What kind of body is that? A spiritual body for eternity. From what I understand, we will look somewhat like we do in our natural bodies, but we will be changed. "In a twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet, the dead will be raised imperishable...( 1Cor 15:52) Imperishable is the key, or at least one of the keys.

Whatever kind of body we were blessed with on earth (and what we did with it by good or bad habits) still was created from dust. Our resurrected bodies will be made from heaven. I know I like that better.
