Wendy, I believe these scriptures answer your question.

Phil 3:20-21

20 But our citizenship is in heaven.And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,  21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.

1 Corinthians 15:49

49 And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man.

Thinking further on the kind of glory mentioned in verse 21, I thought of John's description of his vision of the risen Christ in Rev. 1:12-16

Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands; and in the middle of the lampstands I saw one like a son of man, clothed in a robe reaching to the feet, and girded across his chest with a golden sash. His head and his hair were white like white wool, like snow; and his eyes were like a flame of fire. His feet were like burnished bronze, when it has been made to glow in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of many waters. In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword; and his face was like the sun shining in its strength.

Still like the son of man, but radiating a glory not like anything I can begin to imagine. The closest I've ever come in comprehending it,  was from a dream I had, where I was standing in his presence. The glory,  love and power that iminated from him was so magnificantly beautiful  all I could do was weep uncontrollably.

Thank you Bob and keep me posted. This topic has been on my mind for years and years.

Wanda, very nice. I never thought of that Revelation one.

From the Rapture Paper


 I quote Ray

Our bodies will be celestial………while Abraham is promised…a specific portion of the earth.

Actually, scripture tells us that Abrahams specific portion is THE WORLD. ( Rom.4:13]

Paul and the Gentile saints are promised an allotment among the celestials.

1 Corth. 15:38-39,,,,  Not all flesh is the same flesh……..and so on.
Paul tells us that there are bodies terrestrial and gives us several examples , bodies of
men, beasts, fliers and fishes. He also informs us that there are celestial bodies.

Terrestrial we know are of the earth.

Celestial………ON heavens……that part of the universe that is ON, or higher than,
divine , perfect.

Spiritual…….having the qualities of the spirit
1…..of the spirit….2…. Of or consisting of spirit, not corporeal.

The first man Adam Is of the soil
The second man is the Lord out of heaven.( Celestial, spirit )

Didn’t Ray say that those who are born of the spirit are like the wind?
Spirit is invisible. I liked when Ray spoke of atoms and nucleus and electrons
and the supernatural power of how Christ keeps everything together.
This is amazing stuff, especially how the laws of thermodynamics work.
Ray said we would have a better understanding if we study this law.

Rev.11: 18 & 19.
Will there be flashes of lightening. I don’t know 🤷‍♀️but lightening is pretty powerful and bright.

Let there be light…. Come Lord Jesus





AK4:
Amen Musterseed

Yes here is a verse where it says we will be like the wind

John3:6Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ 8The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

When you mesh all the scientific stuff, quantum mechanics, quantum physics, Mandelbrot set, etc etc it just gets super fascinating. I just imagine being the people who witness this change into immortality. What a witness to God the Father and Jesus they will be!! Also the feeling of validation.
