Understanding Resurrection
- Resurrection means God reunites our souls with glorified, incorruptible bodies through Jesus' power.
- Our resurrected bodies will be transformed like Christ's glorious, spiritual body, a mystery accessible only by faith.
Eucharist as Foretaste of Resurrection
- The Eucharist provides a foretaste of our future resurrection by transforming ordinary bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ.
- This transformation symbolizes how our bodies, nourished by the Eucharist, gain hope for incorruption and resurrection.
Who Will Rise from the Dead
