Resurrection

[Buzzfruit]

Scripture for that bit?

1 Corinthians 15:44 (ASV)
[sup]44 [/sup]it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.

You skipped verse 42: "So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable;"

States quite clearly that the body is raised, not as it was sown, but it is raised. Verse 44 is out of context.

But it’s not the same body. If it was the same body then the person would still be mortal and subjected to death. It says it is sown a perishable body and raised incorruptible. When you sow a seed you don’t reap the same seed……a tree or plant you get instead. The old body needs air to breath and food in order to live but the new body will not.

Not so sure about that last part.

Not so sure about that last part.

Well, I am. There won't be any air to breathe on the Earth when the New City comes down from Heaven to the Earth. It says the elements will melt with great heat. The Bible even says there will be no more sea.

I think it is not important how we are buried, what matter is how you did while you're still living.
