Cannot die any more:
35 but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;
36 for they cannot even die anymore, because they are like angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
This doesn’t mean that we have some
list of things we must do in order to become worthy enough to attain to that
age and the resurrection from the dead. They worthiness comes from Him
indwelling us, not from something we do. He is the reason for our resurrection.
It says in these verses that we
cannot die anymore. A lot of people live in fear of dying. If you believe that
you will go to Heaven when you die, there is nothing to fear in death. That
doesn’t mean you want to go right now, but that when the time comes, you won’t
fear it.
One night during the evening
service, a pastor asked his congregation to raise their hands if they wanted to
go to Heaven. All but one man raised his hand. The pastor asked, “You mean you
don’t want to go to Heaven when you die?” The man replied, “Oh, you mean when I
die! I thought you were getting up a busload to go tonight.”
If you could hear God speak, I believe this is what He would
say:
"You
are My children and as such you have an indestructible life. You cannot die anymore
because My Spirit is dwelling within you. You are My special ones and shall
never perish because of My life dwelling within you. You shall rise again on
the Last Day. You shall be like Me and shall walk like Me; for there is no
distinction among us in that way. We are alike in that we shall walk in newness
of life and in the glory of the Lord Most High. His glory is in us and shall be
displayed in us in that Day. Walk like children of Light.”
88. I may die
physically before He returns, but I cannot die spiritually ever again.
