Did you know there’s only one man raised in a glorified body today? He’s “the firstfruits of them that sleep.” And so, when you put a loved one that’s in Christ, put that body in the grave, you’re just putting it in a motel—like putting it in a hotel for just a few days. Because there’s coming one bright morning! The body is put to sleep; the individual’s gone to be with the Lord! What a picture we have. And then when He comes to take His church out of this world, then, my friend, that body’s going to be raised. It’s sown in corruption, raised in incorruption! And we receive a new body. Oh, He’s wonderful!

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
