Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed — in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.
We're going to be changed! I'm going to be changed. You're going to be changed! We're not talking about a new wardrobe or haircut. We're not talking about a new car or place to live. We are not talking about a new weight loss plan or cosmetic surgery. We are talking about an ultimate, transformational, heavy-duty, complete overhaul! We're going to be made immortal. We are going to become indestructible. We will no longer be "perishable goods"! We are bound for glory and will be like Jesus in his glorified body (Philippians 3:21), for we will see him as he is (1 John 3:2-3).
Video Commentary...
We've included Phil's ToGather video from four years ago as an added blessing to our verse today:
Inspire my faith, dear Lord, to trust your timing and to lean upon your grace. I believe that you know all the mysteries and hold all triumphs in your hand. Please make me victorious, O Lord Almighty, through the mighty work of your Son. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
