Re: Question for Clergy

There are various contributions to the question of the resurrection body
that I'm not resending. I too have various surmises on the matter, but I
cannot prove them with the paucity of evidence available. The one thing I
am confident of is that the Almighty is fully competent to produce ME in
a state that continues my current individuality yet fits me for his
presence. One of my surmises is that human beings are only at home with a
/soma/, but the current /soma/ is not the /soma pneumatikos/ which awaits
the saints. If it involves atoms and molecules, they are somehow
different from those currently composing bodies. At least this applies if
our resurrected bodies are like those of our risen Lord. Whatever the
state, none of us will be able to say, "This is not as good as what I
anticipated." But there always seem to be some creatures who think
they're smart enough to ask, "Say, God, did you think of ...?"
