Will We Be Ghosts In Heaven?

Words in Bold in the Bible

verses are for emphasis.

Words in red are the

words of our Lord and

Saviour, Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ will give

us new, glorious

physical bodies fit

for heaven - just

like Jesus had after

He was resurrected from

the dead. This new body

will replace our sinful, aging,

flawed earthly physical

bodies. How exciting!

Philippians 3:21
Who shall change our vile

body, that it may be

fashioned like unto his

[Jesus Christ's]

glorious body, according

to the working whereby

he is able even to subdue

all things unto himself.

This is exciting! Please

After His resurrection from

the dead, Jesus Christ

had a body that had

flesh and bones. He

also could eat food in

His resurrected body.

Luke (Jesus said:)
24:39 Behold my hands and

my feet, that it is I myself:

handle me, and see; for a

spirit hath not flesh and

bones, as ye see me have. 

24:40 And when he had

thus spoken, he shewed

them his hands and his

feet. 

24:41 And while they yet

believed not for joy, and

wondered, he said unto

them, Have ye here any

meat? 

24:42 And they gave him

a piece of a broiled fish,

and of an honeycomb. 

24:43 And he took it,

and did eat before them. 

Luke testified that he had

eaten with Jesus Christ

after He had risen from

the dead.

Acts
10:40 Him God raised up

the third day, and shewed

him openly; 
10:41 Not to all the people,

but unto witnesses chosen

before of God, even to us,

who did eat and drink

with him after he rose

from the dead. 

Jesus Christ ate bread

and fish with His

disciples after His

resurrection from the

dead.

John
21:13 Jesus then cometh, and

taketh bread, and giveth

them, and fish likewise. 

21:14 This is now the third

time that Jesus shewed

himself to his disciples,

after that he was risen

from the dead. 

21:15 So when they had

dined, Jesus saith to

Simon Peter, Simon,

son of Jonas, lovest

thou me more than

these? He saith unto

him, Yea, Lord; thou

knowest that I love

thee. He saith unto

him, Feed my lambs. 

Jesus told 'doubting'

Thomas to touch His

wounds to prove that

He had a physical body

after His resurrection.

John 20:27
Then saith he to Thomas,

Reach hither thy finger,

and behold my hands;

and reach hither thy

hand, and thrust it into

my side: and be not

faithless, but believing.

In heaven there is a

tree of life with fruits

on it; so we will be

eating in heaven.

Revelation 22:2  
In the midst of the

street of it, and on

either side of the

river, was there

the tree of life,

which bare twelve

manner of fruits, and

yielded her fruit

every month: and the

leaves of the tree were

for the healing of the

nations.

The Bible tells us that we

will have bodies in heaven

just like Jesus had after

His resurrection!

1 John 3:2
Beloved, now are we the

sons of God, and it doth

not yet appear what we

shall be: but we know that,

when he shall appear, we

shall be like him; for we

shall see him as he is.

We, who are looking for

Jesus Christ to rapture us

(raise us up) at any moment

or to resurrect us at our

death if we should die

before then, should be

excited about the new,

perfect bodies we will

receive when we get to

heaven! Our new bodies

will be healthy and will

have no flaws. How

awesome is that! Just

another reason to look

forward to heaven!

Romans 8:23  
And not only they, but

ourselves also, which

have the firstfruits of the

Spirit, even we

ourselves groan

within ourselves,

waiting for the

adoption, to wit,

the redemption

of our body.

Even Job believed

that he would have

a physical body after he

was raised up into

heaven.

Job
19:25 For I know that my

redeemer liveth, and that

he shall stand at the

latter day upon the earth: 
19:26 And though after my

skin worms destroy this

body, yet in my flesh

shall I see God:
