That which is from the earth is not the SOUL, but the BODY. Christ's earthly body was changed and made heavenly in His resurrection. And Phil 3:21 says our body will likewise be fashioned and changed as His was. Man is not meant to remain in heaven forever, despite the hymn book theology going around the last century or so.
Man was created to have dominion in the earth, and a restoration of what Adam lost is not dying and going to heaven forever. Heaven is temporal for bodiless saints upon death. But the meek shall inherit the earth.
Psa 115:16 KJV The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men. |
Where was the body of Jesus that rose from the tomb? Evidently something took place with that old physical body for it to had been absent. It was resurrected.
