And So We Shall Rise

The Christ, the infinite unknown being of God confined to the created state of man, rose after death. And so WE shall rise…

Peter, for a few unforgettable moments walked on water. It is a clue of what we shall be in the day the universe is remade to be obedient to the will of glorified and obedient men.

Jesus walked through walls. He teleported. He communicated by thought-talk. He levitated.  He was not some mutation of evolution, but an exhibit of original design. Our big Brother is the proto-type of the human race. We shall be like Him for we shall see Him as He is. And so We shall rise…

Paul, a spectator of the cosmic summer which is our eternal home, was stupefied at his vision. Prolific at words, he is wordless to describe the sights, sounds and sensations of spirit joined with body as nature intended. And so We shall rise.

…to ceaseless adoration. We will adore as a mother adores the first sight of her babe. We will adore as man adores his first love and yearns to occupy all his time contemplating the other.  We will adore without longing, because we will have it all.
