Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.

 We’ll be like Him:  

 

1 John 3:2

2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.

 

            Now we are children of God … not some day in the sweet bye-and-bye, but now. We don’t know for sure what our new bodies will be like. We do know for certain that they will be like Jesus’ body. What is true about His body will be true about ours. This verse also says that we will see Him just as He is.

 

If you could hear God speak, I believe this is what He would say:

            "My children you are Mine, and I am yours. You are My children and so shall be like My Son. Your lives shall be like His and your bodies shall be like His. Just like with your children there is a likeness among them, so it is with My children. There is a likeness of glory among My children. You cannot tell them apart by looking at them, for they are all alike. They are walking in My glory and shall ever after maintain that glory in their bodies.”

 

            87. When He appears, I will be just like Him, and I will see Him as He truly is.
