But if you die, there will be a funeral and your body will be buried in the ground. And that is not very good. That is not what God intended for you. Yes, heaven is real. Yes, heaven is good. But heaven is not enough. Heaven cannot be the final destination because it is not the bodily existence that God created you to have. On Easter, Jesus Christ rose from the dead with a body transformed so that it can never die again. That is what is going to happen to your body when Christ returns on the Last Day. Paul went on to say to the Philippians later in the letter, “…we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.” Your body will be transformed, and so will creation itself as it too is freed of sin’s impact – as it is freed from the slavery of corruption.
