YOUR BODY IS COMPLICATED! Your body has been created by God! Your body is important! Just think of some of the various ways the Bible talks about human bodies:
• Belong to the Lord
• United to the Lord
• Washed in Holy Baptism
• Hairs on head counted
• Temple of Holy Spirit
• Jesus had a body
• Jesus healed bodies
• Parousia: Christ’s Body
• Body/Blood in Holy Communion
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead teaches us that your body is important — God created it, He redeemed it, He sanctified it, and on the Last Day, He will raise it from the dead. Just as Jesus rose from the dead on Easter Sunday, so too your body will rise from the dead on the Last Day!! Amen!
