Thoughts on the VerseBeing eternal is nothing new. Being like Jesus completely, eternally, will be new. But when the moment of glory hung in the balance as Jesus was revived from his death sleep, we too were given the assurance that death no longer claims us. The only death that really matters is our death to sin in baptism with Jesus.As we die to sinthe process of ressurecting to new life begins in us..So we begin to rise from the dead immediately..The more we die to sin (Die Daily as The apostle Paul stated)The more we waken spiritually.. Then when we take Our final breathe on earth we cross over into eternity. If we have shared in that death, we will most certainly share in his resurrection . PrayerAlmighty, Most Powerful God. Because of your grace and the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, I know I will see you face to face. Help me now, however, to live that resurrected life being more like Jesus today than any day ever before. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
