Immortality

Will you put on immortality?

1Co 15:39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. 

1Co 15:40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. 

1Co 15:41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. 

1Co 15:42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: 

1Co 15:43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: 

1Co 15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. 

1Co 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. 

1Co 15:46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. 

1Co 15:47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. 

1Co 15:48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. 

1Co 15:49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. 

1Co 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. 

1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 

1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 

1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 

1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 

1Co 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 

1Co 15:56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 

1Co 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 

1Co 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

This is truth--

1Co 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 

1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 

1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 

1Co 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 

We shall ALL be changed.

At the LAST TRUMP.

The DEAD shall be raised - this is very important -  ASK yourself this ONE very important question, why do the dead need to be raised if they are already in heaven? 

Corruptible must put on incorruption.

Mortal must put on immortality.

Again, ask yourself another question- how are you corrupt if you are in heaven already? How are you mortal if you are in heaven?   Aren't you incorruptible and immortal if you are in heaven?

Don't you understand?  It is true when the Bible tells us the dead know nothing. Why can't we believe this? Why?! What stops us!? Why do we have to believe lies?

Has Satan weaved his web of deceit so perfectly that people just can't see through it? 

Does believing in what the majority believes truly what it's all about? Don't we remember this--

Mat_7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat

BROAD is the WAY that leads to DESTRUCTION and MANY there be which go in.

Mat_7:14  Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

FEW find the narrow way that leads to life.

This should tell us something! It should wake us up and call us to examine ourselves, our beliefs. Do we truly want to follow the TRUTH of our Savior?  If following whatever our hearts desire was fine with God, why did Jesus die for us?  If believing in whatever we want to believe brought no consequence then why did Jesus die for us? Why? If nothing we do is really sin, or really matters, did Jesus have to die?  There is truth, and there is the way and Jesus is that WAY, Jesus is that TRUTH. His way, His truth was not to do as we please without consequence, yet so many believe this is how it is. They are deceived. 

Please, Father God in Heaven, please keep us in YOUR TRUTH. Please keep us from the evil of deception all around us. Help us to find the narrow way and walk in that way. PLEASE.

All in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Now and forever.

Amen.
