His New Life

"Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory?" Luke 24:26

When our Lord rose from the dead, He rose to an absolutely new life, to a life He did not live before He was incarnate.  Before coming to earth as man, He was God in heaven.  He had all, He created all.  Now after being in a human body, He was raised still with a body, though an eternal one.  He entered into heaven again, yet not as before, now He had a body, a glorious body.  Now He is our Savior, our Bridegroom, our Lord.  His resurrection means for us that one day we shall have a body like unto His glorious body.  When we are born again, we receive from the Risen Lord His very life, and some day we shall also share in His Glory!
