Resurrection of the Body

Resurrection of the Body
“I believe in the resurrection of the body.”
Every Sunday in the Apostles’ Creed, Catholics profess that all shall rise from the dead and be united with the very same flesh that once composed their earthly bodies.
It is the great hope of every true believer in Christ to one day be reunited with loved ones, to experience through the body the joy of being in the physical presence of loved ones. To hear their laughter, to see their smile, to hold their hands and dance with them for joy.
“Resurrection means restoration to the true life of human bodiliness, which was subjected to death in its temporal phase (TOB 66.5).
“What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable...The dead will be raised imperishable” (1 Cor 15:35-53).
How shall the resurrection happen? “[T]he Lord himself will descend from heaven, with a cry of command, with the archangel’s call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first” (1 Thess 4:16).
Everyone is “called to bear in himself the image of Christ, the image of the Risen One...It is a reality implanted in the man of ‘this world,’ maturing in him toward the final fulfillment” (TOB 71.4).
Review
“These musical reflections, based on the life-changing catechesis of John Paul the Great, are a marvelous way to dive deeper into the mysteries of our faith.
No one else is filling this void in the new evangelization.”
-Carlos Tejeda, Chairman of The John Paul the Great Legacy Symposium, Washington, DC, USA.
