“With what kind of body will they come?”
1 Cor 15Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. 1 Jn 3 ⦿ And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man. 1 Cor 15
… The Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. Phil 3
… Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. Lk 24 ⦿ … He appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time … 1 Cor 15
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.

Comment
Speaking as a counselling therapist, the majority of my counselling clients are suffering from anxiety, first and foremost, even if they don’t initially realise it. I love working with clients to bring this under control - and Christian clients can lean very heavily on these biblical truths.
In this video John Piper gives us a masterclass in ad hoc Bible study. You could almost do this in your head, and you could certainly write it in a notebook.
