A Library Of Resources For Spiritual Growth
In the scriptural view, which agrees also with the reality, the body made of dust is necessary in order to receive and possess life. This is true not merely for the children born afterwards, but also for the first created man. Without body, no life. Hence it is indispensable also there where it concerns rescuing life from destruction, where it concerns redemption. Redemption that did not include the body would not be redemption, but, at best, only a scant rescue of what is left to be saved. It would never give us that fulness of life and bliss of which we have at least a presage in the full vigor of bodily health, were not our corporeal part also included in the redemption.
Beyond The Grave - Hermann Cremer
