Resurrection

Resurrection

The day of the resurrection of Jesus was not a day of celebration. It was totally unlike our Easter Sundays with all the songs of rejoicing. There was fear of the authorities and there were questions about the resurrection of Jesus.


In 1 John 3:2 we read that for you and I, “it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is.”


What was His resurrected body like? And what can we picture for you and I who are Christians? Jesus had a real body—not the old earthly body but a new one.


In Luke 24:40 we find that His body could be seen, for He showed them His hands and His feet. In verse 39 He says, “It is I, myself; handle me and see.” When they first saw Him, they thought they saw a spirit. But He said, “I am flesh and bone.” In John 20:27 Jesus tells “doubting” Thomas to “Touch me.”


You find this recorded in Scripture, and it refutes the error that is sometimes taught, that Jesus had only a spirit that could appear when necessary but not a physical body. We, too, shall have a new body when the Lord Jesus comes again.


“We look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body . . .” (Philippians 3:20–21).


Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 15:49, “And as we have borne the image of the earthy [the man of dust], we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.”
