DEATH TO LIFE;
“What I am saying, dear brothers and sisters, is that our physical bodies cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. These dying bodies cannot inherit what will last forever. But let me reveal to you A WONDERFUL SECRET. We will not all die, but we will all be transformed! It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be Raised to Live FOREVER. And we who are living will also be transformed. For OUR DYING BODIES dies must be transformed into bodies that WILL NEVER DIE; OUR MORTAL BODIES MUST BE TRANSFORMED INTO IMMORTAL BODIES.”– { 1 Cor 15:50-53 NLT}
PROVISION;
“For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, AN ETERNAL BODY MADE FOR US BY GOD HIMSELF and not by human hands. We grow weary in our present bodies, and we long to put on our heavenly bodies like new clothing. For WE WILL PUT ON HEAVENLY BODIES; WE WILL NOT BE SPIRITS WITHOUT BODIES. While we live in these earthly bodies, we groan and sigh, but it’s not that we want to die and get rid of these bodies that clothe us. Rather, WE WANT TO PUT ON OUR NEW BODIES SO THAT these DYING BODIES will be SWALLOWED UP BY LIFE. God himself has prepared us for this, and as a guarantee he has given us his Holy Spirit.”-{2 Cor 5:1-5 NLT}. G od makes PROVISION of a new Resurrected body for us, Equipped for a new sphere, Heaven with God! Death is not the end for the child of God, but as the “seed’ that goes into the ground and dies, will RISE by God’s doing, a new glorious body. Indeed it is but, a Body to Die for! “Incorruptible!”
POWER;
“And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with Him the believers who have died. We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet Him ahead of those who have died. For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, THE BELIEVERS who have died WILL RISE FROM THEIR GRAVES.”– {1 Thess 4:13-16 NLT} ..🙂🙂
“He will take our weak mortal bodies and CHANGE THEM into GLORIOUS BODIES LIKE HIS OWN, USING THE SAME POWER WITH which He will bring EVERYTHING UNDER HIS CONTROL.”-{Phil 3:21}
PROMISE;
“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die;”- THE LORD JESUS CHRIST -{John 11:25}.:)
PRIORITY; – “OF FIRST IMPORTANCE!”-
Let us be as Paul to deliver of “FIRST IMPORTANCE” The Gospel, in light of the wonderful Provision and potential of eternity with A person’s Maker and Redeemer, The Lord Jesus …”…Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of FIRST IMPORTANCE what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,”-{1 Cor 15:1-5}- SEEK TO SHARE THE GOSPEL! When you meet someone, is the Gospel of “First Importance” to you that they may hear of Him who died for their sins, that they need not die IN their sins. He was buried and RAISED again that they too can be raised to newness of Life and spend eternity with Him?

We are going to see the King,
No more dying there,
We are going to see the King.
No more dying there,
We are going to see the King,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
We are going to see the King.”-{Andrae Crouch}
