Death is a trade-in.
One day we will trade in our broken-down bodies for a new body. Look what Paul says about that new body: It is from God. It is not made with hands. It is eternal. It is heavenly, not earthly.
That’s what Paul means when he says,
We know. Lots of things we don’t know about the future, but this much is certain. We won’t have to live in tents forever. Someday our ‘tent’ will be replaced with a ‘building’ made by God.
What an inspiring thought for Easter.
Paul keeps going:
Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life (2 Corinthians 5:2-4 – NIV).
