In a polytheistic society, the Bible, and the whole of creation, affirms that God is God, and we are not. The holiness of God is both terrifying and beautiful. Until we understand both aspects of His nature, we will not know Him. When we finally come to understand who God is, it effects what we do, and how we live. Not only is God ‘Holy Holy Holy’, all powerful, all knowing, all present… He is near. He is inviting us to taste and see that He is good. And when we do, it will transform our lives, and the lives around us.

Resurrection of the Body & Life Everlasting
June 4, 2023 • David Stockton
The New Testament writers had a lot to say about what happens after we die. Some of the writers wrote instructions, some wrote apocalyptically, and some wrote poetically, but all wrote to help followers of Christ be steadfast, be pure, and be comforted. These passages give us glimpses into understanding the mystery and victory of the resurrection body and life everlasting.
