The Reality of the Resurrection

Because Jesus rose from the dead, one day we will rise too. Our destiny is not to float about in an ethereal, disembodied state, but to live on a renewed earth (Isa. 65-66; Rev. 21:1) in a resurrected body, as solid and real as Christ's resurrected body. The apostle Peter wrote that God “has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead” (1 Pet. 1:3).
