Q:

74. What will I look like in heaven?

A:

Guess what? You’ll still be you—only better! The Bible says your spirit will live forever. But it also promises you’ll get a new body to live in.

Right now we all have “earthly bodies” that die (1 Corinthians 15:42). But in heaven we will get “spiritual bodies” that last forever (1 Corinthians 15:42,44). God will take the bodies we have now and “change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same mighty power that he will use to conquer everything, everywhere” (Philippians 3:21). Your new body will be filled with the same power that raised Jesus from the dead. It will be like the body Jesus got after he came back to life—not because it comes with a beard and long hair but because it won’t ever break or wear out—or die!

Our earthly bodies, which die and decay, will be different when they are resurrected, for they will never die…They are natural human bodies now, but when they are raised, they will be spiritual bodies. For just as there are natural bodies, so also there are spiritual bodies.

1 CORINTHIANS 15:42,44
