There are very few original thinkers out there. Jack is one, and this kind of post shows it. Thanks!

In Jesus' resurrection, we see what eternal life is all about. I mean, if He was raised from the dead and His disciples could recognise Him, then it means when we are raised from the dead we will have a physical body. Jesus could appear and disappear, He could walk through walls and didn't seem to be affected by time after His resurrection, so it means after the resurrection, the believer will have a new body, one not subject to time or the limitations4 that come with time and matter.

The seal that this life is one day going to be a reality is the spirit we have received in the new birth. This spirit is what makes the believer a child of God but more importantly, equips the believer to walk like Jesus did on earth, today, and now! Mark 16.16-20 talks about this and of course we see Jesus talking about it in Luke 24.25-48 and Acts 1.1-8.

Eternal life can both be in quality and quantity and we can live now as new men on the earth today in love, power and sound mind.

What is it like after death?

Just like before you were born.

Nothingness. And no consciousness.

Not much incentive to do anything but "go for the gusto" in this life, in that case
