- Changing good news of jesus christ.
- 00:00:17.997 --> 00:00:21.101
- Thank you again for boldly giving
- 00:00:21.101 --> 00:00:23.369
- And standing with the winning.
- 00:00:23.369 --> 00:00:25.004
- Walk with me through your prayers and support. god
- 00:00:25.004 --> 00:00:29.075
- Bless you.
- 00:00:29.075 --> 00:00:50.196
- What kind of bodies will
- 00:00:50.730 --> 00:00:52.398
- We have in heaven?
- 00:00:52.398 --> 00:00:55.135
- What will heaven be like?
- 00:00:55.702 --> 00:00:57.137
- What will you look like?
- 00:00:57.137 --> 00:00:58.738
- What will i look like?
- 00:00:58.738 --> 00:01:01.040
- And we'll
- 00:01:01.040 --> 00:01:02.108
- Go to the prototype of the kind of bodies we'll have.
- 00:01:02.108 --> 00:01:05.545
- And that's the resurrected body of jesus christ.
- 00:01:05.545 --> 00:01:09.048
- We see that supernatural body that he had,
- 00:01:09.048 --> 00:01:12.018
- But yet the physical body that he had.
- 00:01:12.018 --> 00:01:14.854
- We know he would eat.
- 00:01:14.854 --> 00:01:16.656
- He prepared a fire.
- 00:01:16.656 --> 00:01:18.091
- He could be touched.
- 00:01:18.091 --> 00:01:19.759
- We know he communicated with people.
- 00:01:19.759 --> 00:01:22.295
- And we see the reality there of the resurrected lord.
- 00:01:22.295 --> 00:01:25.999
- Now you look at the 11 appearances of jesus in the 40
- 00:01:25.999 --> 00:01:29.936
- Days of his resurrected life on this earth.
- 00:01:29.936 --> 00:01:33.439
- And three of them.
- 00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:35.441
- He was
- 00:01:35.642 --> 00:01:36.309
- Not immediately recognized.
- 00:01:36.309 --> 00:01:38.811
- The open tomb there, mary magdalene.
- 00:01:39.579 --> 00:01:42.649
- She didn't recognize jesus until he said, mary.
- 00:01:42.649 --> 00:01:47.020
- Then he looked up and she looked up
- 00:01:47.020 --> 00:01:48.988
- And there was recognition.
- 00:01:48.988 --> 00:01:50.823
- Why didn't she recognize him at first?
- 00:01:50.823 --> 00:01:53.993
- The simple reason is a cultured, godly
- 00:01:53.993 --> 00:01:57.063
- Woman would never look in the face of a strange man
- 00:01:57.063 --> 00:02:00.700
- In a public place.
- 00:02:00.700 --> 00:02:02.235
- But when he said mary, there was recognition
- 00:02:02.235 --> 00:02:05.471
- On the road to emmaus.
- 00:02:05.939 --> 00:02:07.640
- He was walking along there with these two men
- 00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:09.943
- Who would discourage saying the messiah they thought
- 00:02:09.943 --> 00:02:12.845
- Really was the messiah.
- 00:02:12.845 --> 00:02:14.113
- And jesus opened the scriptures and began to execute
- 00:02:14.113 --> 00:02:18.218
- Prophesy, the old testament with these two individuals.
- 00:02:18.218 --> 00:02:20.987
- By the way,
- 00:02:20.987 --> 00:02:22.155
- If there's one time i would love to have been present,
- 00:02:22.155 --> 00:02:24.591
- He'd been right there.
- 00:02:24.591 --> 00:02:25.425
- Just think about walk into the resurrected lord.
- 00:02:26.392 --> 00:02:28.494
- He's open the old testament showing you what this is about.
- 00:02:28.494 --> 00:02:31.264
- Who's it about? the prophecy.
- 00:02:31.264 --> 00:02:32.532
- What a magnificent moment.
- 00:02:32.532 --> 00:02:34.067
- But they didn't recognize him.
- 00:02:34.067 --> 00:02:36.069
- The end of the day.
- 00:02:36.069 --> 00:02:37.070
- Perhaps they invite him to go into their home
- 00:02:37.070 --> 00:02:40.506
- And they recognize him.
- 00:02:40.506 --> 00:02:41.641
- When he did
- 00:02:41.641 --> 00:02:42.909
- Something, he broke the bread and they said it is the lord.
- 00:02:42.909 --> 00:02:46.446
- And then he was gone.
- 00:02:46.446 --> 00:02:49.882
- So first of all, he was recognized by voice,
- 00:02:49.882 --> 00:02:53.319
- Mary magdalene,
- 00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:54.454
- Then recognized by what he did, the breaking of bread.
- 00:02:54.454 --> 00:02:57.790
- It is the lord.
- 00:02:57.790 --> 00:02:58.658
- And then on the sea of galilee,
- 00:02:58.658 --> 00:03:01.227
- The apostles were fishing jesus on the bank.
- 00:03:01.227 --> 00:03:04.664
- He prepared a charcoal fire.
- 00:03:04.664 --> 00:03:06.532
- He was cooking some fish. he went to the edge.
- 00:03:06.532 --> 00:03:09.168
- He said, guys, have you caught anything?
- 00:03:09.168 --> 00:03:13.473
- They said, no.
- 00:03:13.806 --> 00:03:14.907
- He said, well, throw out on this side of the boat.
- 00:03:14.907 --> 00:03:18.244
- And they did.
- 00:03:18.244 --> 00:03:19.245
- And they had a large, large harvest of fish.
- 00:03:19.245 --> 00:03:22.348
- By the way, the bible tells us
- 00:03:22.348 --> 00:03:23.950
- The exact number of fish that they caught.
- 00:03:23.950 --> 00:03:26.719
- And then one of the apostles said, it is the lord.
- 00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:29.656
- He was recognized
- 00:03:29.656 --> 00:03:30.757
- Because they followed the advice that he gave.
- 00:03:30.757 --> 00:03:34.227
- You see, jesus comes and gives recognition to us
- 00:03:34.227 --> 00:03:37.897
- Through many ways as he did there
- 00:03:37.897 --> 00:03:39.766
- In his first appearances in his resurrected body.
- 00:03:39.766 --> 00:03:43.369
- His body was human, but yet it was spiritual.
- 00:03:43.369 --> 00:03:46.606
- He could appear, he could disappear.
- 00:03:46.606 --> 00:03:48.441
- He could go through walls.
- 00:03:48.441 --> 00:03:51.244
- But yet we look at that body
- 00:03:51.244 --> 00:03:53.246
- And see that is the prototype,
- 00:03:53.246 --> 00:03:56.115
- The type of body that you will have.
- 00:03:56.115 --> 00:03:58.951
- And i will have
- 00:03:58.951 --> 00:04:00.353
- When we graduate from this earth and go to heaven.
- 00:04:00.353 --> 00:04:03.656
- Now, is there any hint?
- 00:04:04.157 --> 00:04:08.227
- Is there any
- 00:04:08.561 --> 00:04:09.362
- Shadow in your life and in my life
- 00:04:09.362 --> 00:04:12.231
- That, you know, we may already have tasted
- 00:04:12.231 --> 00:04:15.968
- Something of the heavenly atmosphere
- 00:04:15.968 --> 00:04:19.872
- Already in this life prior to our death.
- 00:04:19.872 --> 00:04:23.476
- Let me tell you something.
- 00:04:24.043 --> 00:04:26.612
- Your face and my face.
- 00:04:26.612 --> 00:04:30.149
- It's a window to our soul.
- 00:04:30.717 --> 00:04:34.187
- We see young people in this church.
- 00:04:34.954 --> 00:04:38.191
- Keith and i talk about this fairly regularly,
- 00:04:38.191 --> 00:04:41.194
- And we ask about that young person who was
- 00:04:41.194 --> 00:04:43.296
- Brought up in our church.
- 00:04:43.296 --> 00:04:44.497
- We say, well, how is bill doing?
- 00:04:44.497 --> 00:04:47.100
- They say, you know, we haven't seen bill lately.
- 00:04:47.100 --> 00:04:48.801
- What's happened?
- 00:04:48.801 --> 00:04:49.736
- Well, bill is running around the new crowd.
- 00:04:49.736 --> 00:04:51.571
- Our bill is this.
- 00:04:51.571 --> 00:04:52.772
- And we say, well, what about bill?
- 00:04:52.772 --> 00:04:54.307
- They say the light has going off in his eyes.
- 00:04:54.307 --> 00:04:57.844
- The eyes are a dead giveaway.
- 00:04:58.478 --> 00:05:00.880
- It's a window into our heart and our lifestyles.
- 00:05:00.880 --> 00:05:03.816
- And what do you see that dullness begin to appear?
- 00:05:03.816 --> 00:05:06.886
- That they just begin to appear.
- 00:05:06.886 --> 00:05:09.122
- That coldness begins to appear.
- 00:05:09.122 --> 00:05:11.624
- But by the same token, when you see a young person
- 00:05:11.624 --> 00:05:14.227
- Who falls in love, well, that's a light comes on.
- 00:05:14.227 --> 00:05:17.864
- You see a child that
- 00:05:18.331 --> 00:05:19.966
- In a moment exercised that light of words.
- 00:05:19.966 --> 00:05:23.436
- Your face in my face is a dead giveaway
- 00:05:23.436 --> 00:05:25.972
- So many times as to where we are with god
- 00:05:25.972 --> 00:05:28.207
- And where we are with christ in this world.
- 00:05:28.207 --> 00:05:30.243
- It's almost a pre resurrection scene.
- 00:05:30.243 --> 00:05:34.347
- And picture your face.
- 00:05:34.347 --> 00:05:36.716
- Everybody here, you're responsible for your face,
- 00:05:36.716 --> 00:05:40.353
- Your eyes,
- 00:05:40.353 --> 00:05:42.455
- A window to our heart and our soul and where we are.
- 00:05:42.455 --> 00:05:46.159
- Our resurrection bodies will be.
- 00:05:46.859 --> 00:05:48.428
- The only prototype we have
- 00:05:48.428 --> 00:05:50.062
- Is a resurrected body of jesus christ.
- 00:05:50.062 --> 00:05:53.132
- But then we've got to ask some questions about this body.
- 00:05:53.132 --> 00:05:57.236
- How old would you be in heaven?
- 00:05:57.236 --> 00:06:01.040
- Will it be the age in
- 00:06:01.541 --> 00:06:03.509
- Which you died?
- 00:06:03.509 --> 00:06:05.845
- The baby be a baby and a senior citizen?
- 00:06:05.845 --> 00:06:09.182
- Be a senior citizen?
- 00:06:09.182 --> 00:06:10.383
- How will you be?
- 00:06:10.383 --> 00:06:11.951
- Well, saint augustine said we'd all be 30 years old.
- 00:06:11.951 --> 00:06:16.189
- Thomas aquinas said we'd all
- 00:06:16.789 --> 00:06:18.257
- Be 33, because that was the age where jesus died.
- 00:06:18.257 --> 00:06:21.794
- I don't think either one of them knew what you were.
- 00:06:21.794 --> 00:06:23.396
- They were talking about.
- 00:06:23.396 --> 00:06:25.264
- I may tell you how old you be in heaven.
- 00:06:25.264 --> 00:06:27.099
- Somebody asked me, how old are you?
- 00:06:27.099 --> 00:06:28.601
- I say, i'm 41.
- 00:06:28.601 --> 00:06:31.737
- Somebody asked, as i old.
- 00:06:31.737 --> 00:06:33.473
- I tell him, you know i'm 73.
- 00:06:33.473 --> 00:06:36.309
- I tell others, you know i'm 12.
- 00:06:36.309 --> 00:06:39.312
- Why do you have to give the top number?
- 00:06:40.112 --> 00:06:41.948
- Would somebody tell me that
- 00:06:41.948 --> 00:06:44.917
- We're all of these ages,
- 00:06:44.917 --> 00:06:46.953
- And in heaven there'll be a child within us.
- 00:06:46.953 --> 00:06:50.723
- Thank goodness there'll be maturity within us.
- 00:06:50.723 --> 00:06:54.794
- There'll be all of those ages within you and within me.
- 00:06:54.794 --> 00:06:58.531
- In heaven will be ageless.
- 00:06:58.531 --> 00:07:01.067
- And that's part of the thrilling aspect of heaven.
- 00:07:01.067 --> 00:07:04.537
- And heaven will always be older.
- 00:07:04.537 --> 00:07:06.572
- And our children, our parents will always be older us.
- 00:07:06.572 --> 00:07:09.775
- But age becomes a non-existent reality
- 00:07:09.775 --> 00:07:13.012
- Because we will be living in timelessness.
- 00:07:13.012 --> 00:07:16.182
- And we'll talk about that later in our study
- 00:07:16.182 --> 00:07:18.684
- Of heaven, of eternity and what it means to be beyond time.
- 00:07:18.684 --> 00:07:23.923
- But we
- 00:07:24.123 --> 00:07:25.224
- Understand in heaven you'll be the exact right age
- 00:07:25.224 --> 00:07:28.528
- You'll need to be to accomplish that
- 00:07:28.528 --> 00:07:31.230
- Supernatural task that god will have
- 00:07:31.230 --> 00:07:35.134
- For every one of his children in heaven.
- 00:07:35.134 --> 00:07:38.471
- Many, many, many tasks that we will have.
- 00:07:38.471 --> 00:07:41.541
- How old were they in heaven?
- 00:07:41.541 --> 00:07:42.875
- One question people ask.
- 00:07:42.875 --> 00:07:44.710
- The other question what will look like in heaven?
- 00:07:44.710 --> 00:07:46.812
- Will be all of us me, ken and barbie.
- 00:07:46.812 --> 00:07:50.249
- We all be self sculptured bodies
- 00:07:50.950 --> 00:07:54.153
- And looked like miss universe.
- 00:07:54.153 --> 00:07:56.856
- How boring that will be.
- 00:07:56.856 --> 00:07:59.859
- Let me tell you what we're going to look like in heaven.
- 00:07:59.859 --> 00:08:02.495
- You're going to look like the best self
- 00:08:02.495 --> 00:08:05.431
- That you can imagine.
- 00:08:05.932 --> 00:08:08.167
- You'll be complete and full and whole,
- 00:08:08.167 --> 00:08:11.370
- And god is going to take care of that.
- 00:08:11.370 --> 00:08:13.873
- And some of us are going to look so good.
- 00:08:13.873 --> 00:08:15.942
- We're not going to recognize each other
- 00:08:15.942 --> 00:08:17.944
- Until there's other moments of recognition.
- 00:08:17.944 --> 00:08:20.379
- It is a not a universe against heaven,
- 00:08:20.379 --> 00:08:24.216
- But there's a great variety in heaven,
- 00:08:24.216 --> 00:08:26.552
- And all of us will come to a maximum fullness
- 00:08:26.552 --> 00:08:30.122
- Where our appearance will be obvious to god
- 00:08:30.122 --> 00:08:32.725
- And obvious to others.
- 00:08:32.725 --> 00:08:33.993
- In fact, there will be a glow to you and me in heaven.
- 00:08:33.993 --> 00:08:37.430
- That is hard to explain, and we can't even
- 00:08:37.430 --> 00:08:40.166
- In articulated in this life.
- 00:08:40.166 --> 00:08:43.135
- Then somebody else.
- 00:08:43.135 --> 00:08:44.470
- Well, well, i have five senses in heaven
- 00:08:44.470 --> 00:08:48.874
- And the answer is
- 00:08:49.308 --> 00:08:50.776
- Yes, we'll
- 00:08:50.776 --> 00:08:51.444
- Have all five senses,
- 00:08:51.444 --> 00:08:53.012
- But we'll have more senses
- 00:08:53.012 --> 00:08:54.513
- Than just five.
- 00:08:54.513 --> 00:08:55.881
- And the five senses we have,
- 00:08:55.881 --> 00:08:57.583
- What about the sense of hearing?
- 00:08:57.583 --> 00:08:59.619
- My goodness, we hear something beautiful like the soul lords
- 00:08:59.619 --> 00:09:03.122
- And the choir today.
- 00:09:03.122 --> 00:09:04.323
- Just think, if our hearing was just
- 00:09:04.323 --> 00:09:07.526
- Maximize what we hear.
- 00:09:07.994 --> 00:09:10.463
- We hear the chorus of angels.
- 00:09:10.463 --> 00:09:12.498
- We would hear beyond our capacity.
- 00:09:12.498 --> 00:09:15.034
- It would go on and on.
- 00:09:15.034 --> 00:09:16.335
- Imagine to see.
- 00:09:16.335 --> 00:09:17.403
- We see something beautiful.
- 00:09:17.403 --> 00:09:19.038
- Imagine the sense of sight is intensified in intensity
- 00:09:19.038 --> 00:09:23.042
- And in scope and understanding, and in beauty.
- 00:09:23.042 --> 00:09:25.711
- Imagine to smell.
- 00:09:25.711 --> 00:09:27.213
- We could smell wonderful fragrances
- 00:09:27.213 --> 00:09:29.515
- That we never smell before.
- 00:09:29.515 --> 00:09:30.950
- The taste you think?
- 00:09:30.950 --> 00:09:33.219
- Bacon, pine ice cream. that's good in heaven.
- 00:09:33.219 --> 00:09:35.888
- Our taste will just explode.
- 00:09:35.888 --> 00:09:38.658
- You see, we take everything.
- 00:09:38.658 --> 00:09:40.993
- Here is just a beginning.
- 00:09:40.993 --> 00:09:42.862
- A sample of what we're going to realize
- 00:09:42.862 --> 00:09:45.364
- And fullness to heaven.
- 00:09:45.364 --> 00:09:47.333
- And we'll have more than five senses.
- 00:09:47.333 --> 00:09:50.269
- Everybody here has more five than five senses right now.
- 00:09:50.269 --> 00:09:53.706
- We don't realize it.
- 00:09:53.706 --> 00:09:55.374
- We have a sense of balance to various degrees.
- 00:09:55.374 --> 00:09:59.011
- All of us do. you don't think about that.
- 00:09:59.011 --> 00:10:01.313
- We have a sense of presence around us,
- 00:10:01.313 --> 00:10:04.617
- Even though we do not see a sense of presence.
- 00:10:04.617 --> 00:10:07.420
- We have an understanding
- 00:10:07.420 --> 00:10:08.487
- Of where our arms
- 00:10:08.487 --> 00:10:09.555
- And our bodies are without even thinking about it.
- 00:10:09.555 --> 00:10:12.692
- We have a sense of time.
- 00:10:12.692 --> 00:10:15.161
- We don't put that in the equation.
- 00:10:15.928 --> 00:10:17.630
- We have a sense of pay.
- 00:10:17.630 --> 00:10:20.399
- And imagine there are 100 or 200 more senses
- 00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:23.836
- That we'll have in heaven as we're exploded
- 00:10:23.836 --> 00:10:27.373
- In the reality, in our resurrected body.
- 00:10:27.373 --> 00:10:31.243
- Just imagine that you said, well, explain some of those.
- 00:10:31.243 --> 00:10:35.581
- How would you explain to somebody who's never heard
- 00:10:35.581 --> 00:10:38.684
- What it means to hear
- 00:10:39.185 --> 00:10:41.053
- Try that they've never heard anything?
- 00:10:41.053 --> 00:10:43.689
- You try to explain to him, you know that you
- 00:10:43.689 --> 00:10:47.493
- Try to explain to somebody
- 00:10:48.060 --> 00:10:49.428
- Who who's never seen what it means to see.
- 00:10:49.428 --> 00:10:52.565
- We see these studies with helen keller
- 00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.367
- And other personalities. it's hard.
- 00:10:55.367 --> 00:10:57.536
- How can we understand today?
- 00:10:57.536 --> 00:10:59.505
- The other senses will have available to us
- 00:10:59.505 --> 00:11:03.642
- In our supernatural, resurrected bodies.
- 00:11:03.642 --> 00:11:06.946
- So the prototype is jesus, we think.
- 00:11:06.946 --> 00:11:10.416
- And there we are. we move.
- 00:11:10.416 --> 00:11:14.320
- We, we're
- 00:11:14.620 --> 00:11:16.055
- Supernatural bodies.
- 00:11:16.055 --> 00:11:19.291
- Have you ever tried to read
- 00:11:19.291 --> 00:11:21.160
- A historical novel out of order?
- 00:11:21.160 --> 00:11:24.130
- It would be hard, if not impossible, to understand.
- 00:11:24.130 --> 00:11:26.899
- The plot would.
- 00:11:26.899 --> 00:11:28.501
- And yet we read have studied the bible in much the same way.
- 00:11:28.501 --> 00:11:32.138
- Like a novel, the bible tells a story
- 00:11:32.138 --> 00:11:34.473
- With a beginning, a middle and end.
- 00:11:34.473 --> 00:11:37.009
- And when you read in chronological order,
- 00:11:37.009 --> 00:11:39.211
- You will see history unfold in a new
- 00:11:39.211 --> 00:11:41.647
- And understandable and memorable way.

- Listen,
- 00:12:22.488 --> 00:12:24.123
- Listen.
- 00:12:24.123 --> 00:12:25.191
- Look in first corinthians 15, just a few verses.
- 00:12:25.191 --> 00:12:29.128
- It says it clearly.
- 00:12:29.128 --> 00:12:30.663
- It is sown a natural body.
- 00:12:30.663 --> 00:12:33.132
- It is raise a spiritual body, supernatural body.
- 00:12:33.132 --> 00:12:36.702
- If there is a natural body, there's also a spiritual body.
- 00:12:36.702 --> 00:12:40.172
- The first man is from earth, earthy.
- 00:12:40.940 --> 00:12:43.409
- The second man is from heaven, as the earthy
- 00:12:43.409 --> 00:12:46.879
- Souls are those who are earthy.
- 00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:49.481
- That's us.
- 00:12:49.481 --> 00:12:50.583
- And as in heavenly, so also those who are heavenly.
- 00:12:50.583 --> 00:12:54.286
- Just as we have borne the image of earthy,
- 00:12:54.286 --> 00:12:57.356
- We'll also bear the image of heavenly.
- 00:12:57.356 --> 00:13:00.459
- We have our earth bodies.
- 00:13:00.459 --> 00:13:02.428
- We have our supernatural, heavenly bodies.
- 00:13:02.428 --> 00:13:06.131
- Those who are in christ.
- 00:13:06.131 --> 00:13:08.167
- What a day of rejoicing that will be!
- 00:13:08.167 --> 00:13:11.337
- Now let me say this in a memorable way.
- 00:13:12.204 --> 00:13:16.041
- Does anybody in here think 19?
- 00:13:16.642 --> 00:13:21.747
- Oh, let's just pick a year.
- 00:13:22.348 --> 00:13:23.515
- 1939 and the name billy batson.
- 00:13:23.515 --> 00:13:29.655
- Does anybody know how that name came
- 00:13:30.422 --> 00:13:32.992
- Into a degree of prominence in 1939?
- 00:13:32.992 --> 00:13:37.529
- Captain marvel, all he had to say was billy
- 00:13:37.529 --> 00:13:41.367
- Batson, said shazam.
- 00:13:41.367 --> 00:13:44.203
- He thought that was only gomer pyle, didn't you?
- 00:13:45.170 --> 00:13:47.606
- That's a shazam.
- 00:13:47.606 --> 00:13:50.376
- And all of a sudden he's captain marvel.
- 00:13:50.376 --> 00:13:53.112
- And he has wisdom.
- 00:13:53.112 --> 00:13:54.313
- He has speed, he can fly.
- 00:13:54.313 --> 00:13:55.915
- He's got supernatural speed.
- 00:13:55.915 --> 00:13:57.883
- It's almost like
- 00:13:57.883 --> 00:14:00.586
- Shazam!
- 00:14:00.586 --> 00:14:02.721
- Shazam
- 00:14:02.721 --> 00:14:05.024
- Bible teaches now.
- 00:14:05.024 --> 00:14:08.193
- Now we got a problem.
- 00:14:08.193 --> 00:14:10.562
- Here we are.
- 00:14:10.562 --> 00:14:12.064
- Breath his left his body.
- 00:14:12.064 --> 00:14:13.565
- Shazam!
- 00:14:13.565 --> 00:14:15.167
- We have a supernatural body, the lack of
- 00:14:15.167 --> 00:14:18.103
- Which is a resurrected body of jesus christ.
- 00:14:18.103 --> 00:14:20.973
- And we see there's
- 00:14:21.407 --> 00:14:22.374
- A divinity, there's recognition, etc., etc.
- 00:14:22.374 --> 00:14:25.477
- And exposition, the explosion of our gifts.
- 00:14:25.477 --> 00:14:28.480
- And now where are we going to live
- 00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:32.551
- When i've got
- 00:14:32.918 --> 00:14:33.719
- This supernatural body?
- 00:14:33.719 --> 00:14:36.488
- Where will that body live throughout all eternity?
- 00:14:36.488 --> 00:14:39.558
- This is the wonderful thing.
- 00:14:39.558 --> 00:14:40.993
- It will live
- 00:14:40.993 --> 00:14:43.228
- In a new heaven and a new earth.
- 00:14:43.228 --> 00:14:46.632
- It'll live right here in this domain, except the earth
- 00:14:46.632 --> 00:14:50.769
- Will go back to a pristine kind of existence.
- 00:14:50.769 --> 00:14:55.374
- Now let's get some absolutes built down.
- 00:14:56.241 --> 00:14:59.611
- Some biblical absolutes that you need to know.
- 00:14:59.611 --> 00:15:02.114
- Look on your screen.
- 00:15:02.114 --> 00:15:04.083
- Look at them.
- 00:15:04.083 --> 00:15:05.217
- God made adam and eve to be spiritual and physical,
- 00:15:05.217 --> 00:15:09.388
- And they were not human until they were both
- 00:15:09.388 --> 00:15:12.958
- Record that god often took
- 00:15:13.525 --> 00:15:15.928
- On human form in the old testament times,
- 00:15:15.928 --> 00:15:18.697
- He was likely in human form as he walked in
- 00:15:18.697 --> 00:15:22.001
- Eden.
- 00:15:22.234 --> 00:15:24.970
- God took on a human body, becoming a man in christ,
- 00:15:24.970 --> 00:15:27.973
- Not just temporarily, but forever.
- 00:15:27.973 --> 00:15:30.843
- This is that god took on a human form in
- 00:15:30.843 --> 00:15:34.646
- Jesus christ, second person, a trinity.
- 00:15:34.646 --> 00:15:37.383
- He became a human, a man,
- 00:15:37.383 --> 00:15:41.787
- Not just temporarily, but get this forever.
- 00:15:41.787 --> 00:15:45.958
- Remember, he said, he'll be with us in christ.
- 00:15:45.958 --> 00:15:48.060
- Isn't that something god raised?
- 00:15:48.060 --> 00:15:50.229
- Christ in human body was physical properties.
- 00:15:50.229 --> 00:15:53.699
- A body that walked tom eight could be touched.
- 00:15:53.699 --> 00:15:57.770
- He explicitly stated he wasn't a ghost.
- 00:15:57.770 --> 00:16:02.041
- God made mankind in his image.
- 00:16:02.641 --> 00:16:05.077
- Because humans are physical beings.
- 00:16:05.077 --> 00:16:07.179
- Though god is spirit.
- 00:16:07.179 --> 00:16:08.547
- There must be something
- 00:16:08.547 --> 00:16:09.648
- About our human bodies that reflects god's identity.
- 00:16:09.648 --> 00:16:13.452
- Certainly, there's
- 00:16:13.452 --> 00:16:14.420
- Nothing about our bodies that repulsive god
- 00:16:14.420 --> 00:16:17.623
- Who created humanity as a crowning achievement.
- 00:16:17.623 --> 00:16:21.960
- God's holy spirit indwells
- 00:16:22.528 --> 00:16:24.263
- Human bodies and calls them his holy temples.
- 00:16:24.263 --> 00:16:27.399
- God will raise people with eternal listen to this
- 00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:31.103
- Physical, spiritual bodies
- 00:16:31.103 --> 00:16:34.640
- That come down to inhabit the new earth with them.
- 00:16:34.640 --> 00:16:39.611
- Look, heaven is not out there in another cosmos,
- 00:16:39.611 --> 00:16:43.849
- Another galaxy.
- 00:16:43.849 --> 00:16:45.117
- You're up there, over there.
- 00:16:45.117 --> 00:16:46.819
- Heaven will be here.
- 00:16:46.819 --> 00:16:49.254
- A new heaven and a new earth.
- 00:16:49.254 --> 00:16:51.156
- Now we're not going to deal with.
- 00:16:51.156 --> 00:16:54.493
- Don't ask me.
- 00:16:54.493 --> 00:16:55.494
- After the service, the little interim period
- 00:16:55.494 --> 00:16:58.831
- That some talk about between death
- 00:16:58.831 --> 00:17:02.367
- And eternity and our supernatural bodies
- 00:17:02.367 --> 00:17:05.704
- In the supernatural new heaven and earth.
- 00:17:05.704 --> 00:17:07.806
- Because that will come
- 00:17:07.806 --> 00:17:08.974
- When jesus comes and brings down the curtain of history.
- 00:17:08.974 --> 00:17:12.678
- And some would talk about purgatory,
- 00:17:12.678 --> 00:17:17.282
- But we're going to wait for that sequencing.
- 00:17:17.282 --> 00:17:19.685
- Okay, would you do that?
- 00:17:19.685 --> 00:17:21.086
- But in the meantime,
- 00:17:21.086 --> 00:17:23.322
- On this earth, there's a lot of groaning going on.
- 00:17:23.322 --> 00:17:26.492
- Did you know this earth groans
- 00:17:26.492 --> 00:17:29.695
- It really does.
- 00:17:30.062 --> 00:17:31.263
- Do you know there's groaning and you and me what is that
- 00:17:31.263 --> 00:17:33.699
- Groaning the earth and human and human human beings.
- 00:17:33.699 --> 00:17:37.970
- Humanity fell in the garden of eden.
- 00:17:37.970 --> 00:17:40.239
- That is the great sin
- 00:17:40.239 --> 00:17:42.908
- That is in chapter three.
- 00:17:42.908 --> 00:17:45.144
- All of a sudden, adam and eve, who had open hands
- 00:17:45.144 --> 00:17:48.714
- And bent knees before god.
- 00:17:49.281 --> 00:17:51.683
- Now they close their hands and they straighten
- 00:17:51.683 --> 00:17:54.386
- Out their knees because they said, i want to be a god.
- 00:17:54.386 --> 00:17:59.191
- I want to run my own life.
- 00:17:59.191 --> 00:18:01.293
- That is the ultimate, basic sin that all of us are
- 00:18:01.293 --> 00:18:05.297
- Caught up in.
- 00:18:05.297 --> 00:18:06.231
- And that's the basic sin of adam and eve.
- 00:18:06.231 --> 00:18:08.800
- Close hands, unbuilt knee.
- 00:18:09.368 --> 00:18:12.437
- I'm going to make my choices of what i eat, where i go,
- 00:18:12.437 --> 00:18:15.974
- How i live, and determine the destiny of my life.
- 00:18:15.974 --> 00:18:20.112
- That is a fallenness.
- 00:18:20.112 --> 00:18:21.580
- And when man fell
- 00:18:21.580 --> 00:18:24.616
- Close his
- 00:18:24.917 --> 00:18:25.851
- Hands and knees, the whole creation fell.
- 00:18:25.851 --> 00:18:29.488
- We live in a world that is under the curse of god,
- 00:18:29.488 --> 00:18:33.225
- And we live in a human life under the curse of god.
- 00:18:33.225 --> 00:18:37.129
- And we see what happens to this curse.
- 00:18:37.963 --> 00:18:41.300
- How is it removed?
- 00:18:41.300 --> 00:18:42.935
- And that comes to what jesus christ did on the cross.
- 00:18:42.935 --> 00:18:46.972
- And you see evidence of the removal of that curse,
- 00:18:46.972 --> 00:18:50.242
- Where in the scars of jesus
- 00:18:50.242 --> 00:18:53.345
- Here you have the apostles and they look at jesus.
- 00:18:53.345 --> 00:18:56.682
- They thought they were on a presidential campaign
- 00:18:56.682 --> 00:18:59.551
- And jesus was going to be elected president.
- 00:18:59.551 --> 00:19:03.121
- But once he was captured, and once they saw those nails
- 00:19:03.121 --> 00:19:06.291
- Nailed in his hand,
- 00:19:06.291 --> 00:19:07.426
- They said, look, it's not going to happen.
- 00:19:07.426 --> 00:19:09.962
- But little did they know, there's those nails that left.
- 00:19:09.962 --> 00:19:13.298
- The scars did not mean the end, but it meant the beginning
- 00:19:13.298 --> 00:19:17.302
- Of the eternal salvation.
- 00:19:17.302 --> 00:19:19.738
- They turn to salvation.
- 00:19:20.239 --> 00:19:22.374
- And so here we go, the groaning.
- 00:19:22.374 --> 00:19:25.277
- I want you to read
- 00:19:25.277 --> 00:19:26.311
- Not in the new american standard, the king james
- 00:19:26.311 --> 00:19:29.014
- Algieri peterson's translation of this passage and
- 00:19:29.014 --> 00:19:32.284
- In romans chapter eight.
- 00:19:32.284 --> 00:19:33.518
- Tremendous.
- 00:19:33.518 --> 00:19:34.953
- This resurrection life you receive from god
- 00:19:34.953 --> 00:19:38.257
- Is not a timid, grave tending life.
- 00:19:38.257 --> 00:19:42.194
- It's an adventurously expectant greeting
- 00:19:42.194 --> 00:19:45.297
- God with a childlike what's next, papa god?
- 00:19:45.297 --> 00:19:49.935
- Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we are,
- 00:19:49.935 --> 00:19:53.605
- Who we really are.
- 00:19:53.605 --> 00:19:55.140
- We know who he is.
- 00:19:55.140 --> 00:19:56.842
- We know what we are, father and children,
- 00:19:56.842 --> 00:20:00.212
- And we know we're going to get what's coming to us.
- 00:20:00.212 --> 00:20:03.682
- Listen, an unbelievable inheritance.
- 00:20:03.682 --> 00:20:08.020
- Look at the rest of it.
- 00:20:08.020 --> 00:20:09.421
- And that's why i don't think there's any comparison
- 00:20:09.421 --> 00:20:13.125
- Between the present hard times and the coming good times.
- 00:20:13.125 --> 00:20:17.396
- The creative world itself can hardly wait for
- 00:20:17.396 --> 00:20:20.766
- What's coming next. that's the groaning.
- 00:20:20.766 --> 00:20:23.035
- Everything in creation is being more or less held back.
- 00:20:23.035 --> 00:20:26.305
- God reigns.
- 00:20:26.638 --> 00:20:27.839
- It in until both creation and all the creatures are ready
- 00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:33.912
- And can be released at the same moment.
- 00:20:33.912 --> 00:20:36.748
- Enter the glorious times ahead.
- 00:20:36.748 --> 00:20:38.984
- Meantime, the joyful anticipation deepens
- 00:20:38.984 --> 00:20:42.921
- The anticipation
- 00:20:42.921 --> 00:20:44.356
- Of the supernatural body in a supernatural world, everybody
- 00:20:44.356 --> 00:20:49.594
- Will become everything that
- 00:20:50.195 --> 00:20:53.165
- God built into you and built into me to become.
- 00:20:53.165 --> 00:20:57.669
- We'll be able to accomplish in heaven
- 00:20:57.669 --> 00:20:59.971
- Everything that we did not accomplish on this earth,
- 00:20:59.971 --> 00:21:03.208
- And so many things
- 00:21:03.208 --> 00:21:04.209
- We didn't have time to accomplish,
- 00:21:04.209 --> 00:21:05.944
- We didn't have opportunity to accomplish.
- 00:21:05.944 --> 00:21:07.846
- And because of things
- 00:21:07.846 --> 00:21:08.914
- That happened in our background,
- 00:21:08.914 --> 00:21:10.415
- We were unable to accomplishment.
- 00:21:10.415 --> 00:21:12.484
- Understand this.
- 00:21:12.484 --> 00:21:15.387
- Only those things
- 00:21:15.387 --> 00:21:17.723
- That have died in you and in me
- 00:21:17.723 --> 00:21:21.126
- Will ever be resurrected.
- 00:21:21.693 --> 00:21:24.896
- Only there has to be a death.
- 00:21:24.896 --> 00:21:27.499
- There can be resurrection.
- 00:21:27.499 --> 00:21:29.534
- What does that mean?
- 00:21:29.534 --> 00:21:32.170
- My mother,
- 00:21:32.170 --> 00:21:34.106
- God fearing woman, stern,
- 00:21:34.106 --> 00:21:37.142
- Tough, disciplinarian, trouble
- 00:21:37.743 --> 00:21:41.780
- Loving, openly and genuinely, even even myself as her son.
- 00:21:41.780 --> 00:21:47.052
- In the process, i have look back
- 00:21:47.753 --> 00:21:49.855
- And in my study at home i have a picture of my mom.
- 00:21:49.855 --> 00:21:53.525
- There,
- 00:21:53.525 --> 00:21:54.493
- And i look at her and i
- 00:21:54.993 --> 00:21:56.561
- Say, mom, for now in heaven,
- 00:21:56.561 --> 00:21:59.931
- Or you have killed those things
- 00:22:00.565 --> 00:22:03.435
- That limited you, loving, limited you in this life.
- 00:22:03.435 --> 00:22:08.006
- She, my mother, was a very manipulative person.
- 00:22:08.006 --> 00:22:10.442
- You say behind the world. why was she like that?
- 00:22:10.442 --> 00:22:12.677
- Because she was one of.
- 00:22:12.677 --> 00:22:14.312
- She had four sisters and four older sisters.
- 00:22:14.312 --> 00:22:17.082
- She was a baby when my grandfather died early
- 00:22:17.082 --> 00:22:20.252
- In a little farm.
- 00:22:20.252 --> 00:22:21.553
- My grandmother
- 00:22:21.553 --> 00:22:22.687
- Took those four daughters, moved to la, mississippi,
- 00:22:22.687 --> 00:22:25.223
- And those five daughters and four of them
- 00:22:25.223 --> 00:22:27.459
- Could go to work doing all kinds of things.
- 00:22:27.459 --> 00:22:29.961
- My grandmother sewed.
- 00:22:29.961 --> 00:22:31.730
- They lived very, very, very modestly.
- 00:22:31.730 --> 00:22:34.933
- My mother was went to school.
- 00:22:34.933 --> 00:22:37.035
- So as the youngest child, she had to manipulate her older
- 00:22:37.035 --> 00:22:41.206
- Sisters to get close, to get mean.
- 00:22:41.206 --> 00:22:43.675
- So she would have things there.
- 00:22:43.675 --> 00:22:44.943
- So she became god in the business
- 00:22:44.943 --> 00:22:47.379
- Of manipulation early in her life,
- 00:22:47.379 --> 00:22:49.448
- And she carried that all the way through.
- 00:22:49.448 --> 00:22:51.550
- So there was that lack of genuineness.
- 00:22:51.550 --> 00:22:54.486
- And i looked at my mother's picture and i said, mom
- 00:22:54.486 --> 00:22:57.422
- In heaven, isn't it grateful that manipulation has died?
- 00:22:57.422 --> 00:23:02.093
- Is no
- 00:23:02.327 --> 00:23:03.462
- It grateful now in heaven you can love freely in it.
- 00:23:03.462 --> 00:23:06.798
- Grateful in heaven
- 00:23:06.798 --> 00:23:07.566
- You won't be limited with poverty
- 00:23:07.566 --> 00:23:09.468
- And things that you did not have.
- 00:23:09.468 --> 00:23:10.969
- And things you could not do.
- 00:23:10.969 --> 00:23:12.504
- Now you be able to spread your wings in.
- 00:23:12.504 --> 00:23:15.540
- You look at those who have gone ahead of you
- 00:23:15.540 --> 00:23:17.776
- Brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, friends
- 00:23:17.776 --> 00:23:20.512
- And you say, boy, boy, what they could have been, what
- 00:23:20.512 --> 00:23:22.681
- They should have been,
- 00:23:22.681 --> 00:23:23.748
- What what might have happened in heaven.
- 00:23:23.748 --> 00:23:26.818
- We will become and achieve all these things,
- 00:23:26.818 --> 00:23:29.521
- Because all of that which limited us will be dead,
- 00:23:29.521 --> 00:23:33.658
- And it will be resurrected again along with our bodies,
- 00:23:33.658 --> 00:23:37.529
- As we live in a resurrected body, in a resurrected world
- 00:23:37.529 --> 00:23:42.501
- That is heaven.
- 00:23:42.868 --> 00:23:47.506
- Boy, if we could see
- 00:23:47.973 --> 00:23:49.140
- All those who graduated before us,
- 00:23:49.140 --> 00:23:52.077
- So will there be any children in heaven?
- 00:23:52.077 --> 00:23:53.979
- Absolutely.
- 00:23:53.979 --> 00:23:55.180
- What would heaven be without kids?
- 00:23:55.180 --> 00:23:57.549
- What about the little baby that never really saw life?
- 00:23:57.549 --> 00:24:00.151
- Wouldn't it be thrilling to see that baby
- 00:24:00.151 --> 00:24:01.920
- Grow up in a perfect earth, in a super environment?
- 00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:06.024
- That would be something to behold, wouldn't it?
- 00:24:06.024 --> 00:24:08.226
- So i'm saying god in his equalizing,
- 00:24:08.226 --> 00:24:11.963
- But god in his infinite wisdom, will see that heaven is all.
- 00:24:11.963 --> 00:24:16.067
- And more than anything we could ever dream
- 00:24:16.067 --> 00:24:19.104
- I have not seen here is not heard,
- 00:24:19.104 --> 00:24:21.072
- Neither enter the heart of man what god has prepared
- 00:24:21.072 --> 00:24:24.342
- For those who end up in love with him.
- 00:24:24.342 --> 00:24:28.980
- That's heaven
- 00:24:28.980 --> 00:24:30.815
- Who invented pleasure,
- 00:24:31.283 --> 00:24:35.053
- Who invented laughter,
- 00:24:35.520 --> 00:24:38.657
- Who invented love,
- 00:24:38.657 --> 00:24:41.126
- Who invented fun,
- 00:24:41.126 --> 00:24:43.261
- Who invented friendship,
- 00:24:43.261 --> 00:24:45.864
- Who invented celebration, who invented dancing
- 00:24:45.864 --> 00:24:50.502
- And shouting and praising and who and who put on.
- 00:24:50.502 --> 00:24:54.472
- Somebody has the idea that when you talk about heaven,
- 00:24:54.472 --> 00:24:57.876
- The pastor has to have a stained glass voice.
- 00:24:57.876 --> 00:25:02.013
- You brethren.
- 00:25:02.380 --> 00:25:03.481
- Very well, i know all about that.
- 00:25:03.481 --> 00:25:06.451
- Man. heaven.
- 00:25:06.785 --> 00:25:08.687
- We know as we have been known,
- 00:25:08.687 --> 00:25:11.256
- Heaven will be a time of celebration.
- 00:25:11.256 --> 00:25:13.858
- And i'm sure those who are in christ have gone ahead of us.
- 00:25:13.858 --> 00:25:16.695
- They said, oh, and they can see me now.
- 00:25:16.695 --> 00:25:19.965
- C.s. lewis preached a great sermon in heaven.
- 00:25:19.965 --> 00:25:22.567
- He called it the weight of glory.
- 00:25:22.567 --> 00:25:25.270
- And in this sermon
- 00:25:25.270 --> 00:25:26.404
- He said, if we see just ordinary folks in heaven today,
- 00:25:26.404 --> 00:25:30.175
- They'd have such a weight of glory and a glow on them
- 00:25:30.175 --> 00:25:33.578
- And a radiance on them, we would bow down and worship.
- 00:25:33.578 --> 00:25:37.115
- We bow down in worship.
- 00:25:37.616 --> 00:25:39.951
- Oh, listen.
- 00:25:40.285 --> 00:25:43.421
- All we have to do.
- 00:25:43.855 --> 00:25:47.192
- Was tied hands.
- 00:25:47.559 --> 00:25:50.061
- Open them up!
- 00:25:50.061 --> 00:25:52.030
- Those unbent knees just bend them.
- 00:25:52.030 --> 00:25:55.867
- And all of a sudden, in your life,
- 00:25:56.635 --> 00:25:58.303
- Now and forever, there will be that.
- 00:25:58.303 --> 00:26:02.340
- Shows i am
- 00:26:02.641 --> 00:26:04.776
- Said with me.
- 00:26:04.776 --> 00:26:07.212
- Shazam!
- 00:26:07.212 --> 00:26:09.247
- Oh, if we could see ourselves in.
- 00:26:09.247 --> 00:26:14.152
- What a day,
- 00:26:14.486 --> 00:26:15.286
- What a moment, what a celebration
- 00:26:15.286 --> 00:26:18.657
- It is heaven.
- 00:26:19.024 --> 00:26:22.260
- Have you ever tried to read
- 00:26:22.861 --> 00:26:24.663
- A historical novel out of order?
- 00:26:24.663 --> 00:26:27.632
- It would be hard, if not impossible, to understand.
- 00:26:27.632 --> 00:26:30.402
- The plot would.
- 00:26:30.402 --> 00:26:32.003
- And yet we read have studied the bible in much the same way.
- 00:26:32.003 --> 00:26:35.306
- Like a novel,
- 00:26:35.674 --> 00:26:36.908
- The bible tells a story with the beginning of middle and end
- 00:26:36.908 --> 00:26:40.478
- And when you read in chronological order,
- 00:26:40.478 --> 00:26:42.747
- You will see history unfold in a new
- 00:26:42.747 --> 00:26:45.183
