What we are and what we shall be. 1John 3:1-2
We shall all be changed. We live in a physical world. We have physical experiences - for just a few years. But because of God’s love, he has adopted us, He has bought us, he has redeemed us. We are His children and we shall live forever. God has given us a spirit that will live forever.
While we live in this physical world, we must always be preparing for that spiritual world. Our character must change. Our appreciation for God must change. Our love for God must change. Without these changes, we will not see God.
