The human being, even the christian in this life, is both finite and fallen. Finite and fallen, that is to say, we are subject to sickness and disease and death. But a day is coming where our own eternal blessedness is going to result from the fact that we will one day be transformed from these lowly bodies into glorified bodies where sickness and sin will no longer reside.

00:00:00 Big news, really big news.
00:00:03 Our next Right Response Conference is in the works.
00:00:06 We've got a number of things already lined up
00:00:08 and organized.
00:00:09 This is what we've got so far.
00:00:11 The whole conference, three days long
00:00:13 on post-millennialism and theonomy.
00:00:17 And the speakers, Dr. James White,
00:00:20 Dr. Joseph Boot, Gary DeMar,
00:00:22 and of course, yours truly, Pastor Joel Webin.

00:00:43 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the
00:00:47 mouth of God.
00:00:48 You're listening to Daily Truth. 0.82
00:00:50 see the human being even the christian in this life is both finite and fallen finite and fallen
00:01:01 now in regards to our finitude we're speaking of the the fact that from the dust we were made to
00:01:09 the dust we return we're speaking of the fact that we're subject to viruses right we're subject to
00:01:15 sickness and disease and death and all these things we are finite human beings but we're not
00:01:20 only finite as creatures, but were also fallen. You could be finite without being fallen. Adam
00:01:27 and Eve were finite as creatures. They weren't infinite, right? Before sin ever entered the
00:01:31 world, they were still finite, but not until sin entered the world did they become fallen.
00:01:37 And in terms of our finitude, we could say that we experience sickness. Well, in terms of our
00:01:43 fallenness, we could say we experience sin. But when we stand before God on that final day,
00:01:49 If we've had faith in Jesus, if we've been truly born again by grace through faith in
00:01:53 Christ alone, then when we stand before God on that final day and we receive our glorified
00:01:59 bodies, we will still be finite in the sense that we won't be infinite like the creator,
00:02:04 but there are massive aspects of our finitude that will fall away because we will have these
00:02:10 new glorified bodies, meaning we will no longer ever, ever get sick.
00:02:15 We will no longer constitute change, physical change, in the sense that we are getting closer
00:02:21 and closer to death.
00:02:23 We'll never die.
00:02:24 We'll never gain any disease.
00:02:27 And not only that, that's speaking to our finitude, but also our fallenness will be
00:02:33 no longer.
00:02:34 We'll no longer sin.
00:02:36 So much of you and my own disappointment and frustration and anger and sadness and all
00:02:42 these things that we hate about the human existence, so much of it is related to our own
00:02:48 sin. Well, when we see him, 1 John says, we will be like him for we shall see him as he is.
00:02:55 Speaking of Christ, when we stand before him on that final day and receive our glorified bodies,
00:03:00 we will see Jesus, that is the sinless one, and we will be like him, that is we too at that moment,
00:03:06 sin will be no more we will be sinless as our sinless savior is sinless we shall be like him
00:03:13 when we see him for we shall see him as he truly is and so a day is coming brothers and sisters
00:03:19 where our own eternal blessedness is going to result from the fact that we will one day be
00:03:25 transformed from these lowly bodies into glorified bodies where sickness and sin no longer reside
00:03:32 both finitude and fallenness. Fallenness completely gone, no more sin, and finitude
00:03:39 gone in the sense that there's no more disease, death, or decay. Still finite in the sense that
00:03:46 we will not have infinite knowledge, infinite wisdom. God alone reserves that right. He's the
00:03:51 only infinite, truly infinite being because he is the creator alone. And even in heaven, we will
00:03:56 still be his creatures. But we will no longer be finite in the sense that we grow weary, that we
00:04:01 grow tired, that we, that we grow sick, that we grow diseased. All these things will be gone away.
00:04:07 There will be a goodness that we possess that is a shared goodness that God, God is allowing us to
00:04:15 share in his own glory, to share in his own blessedness. And the more we share in God and
00:04:21 his blessedness, the more blessed we too will be. Second Peter, to illustrate the point I've just
00:04:27 made. Chapter one, verse three through four says this, his divine power has granted to us all things
00:04:34 that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory
00:04:40 and excellence by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises so that through
00:04:46 them you may become partakers of the divine nature. Listen to that. Through them, through these
00:04:52 promises through faith in Jesus, you and I will become partakers. We'll become co-heirs. We'll
00:04:57 become sharers in what? The divine nature. And what is the divine nature? It's the blessed
00:05:05 nature of God. We too will become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the
00:05:10 corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire. On that final day, brothers and sisters,
00:05:17 When we stand before God clothed in the righteousness of Christ with new glorified bodies, we will be freed from all sin.
00:05:25 We will be partakers in the divine nature and the divine nature is blessed.
00:05:30 And we too are blessed now and we will be blessed exceedingly even more then.
00:05:36 Thanks so much for listening.
00:05:38 But real quick, before you go, do us a small favor, take a moment and leave us a five-star review if you enjoyed the show.
00:05:45 This is undoubtedly the best way that you can help us get this biblically faithful content to as many people as possible.
00:05:52 Thanks so much.
