Q- Why is there so much emphasis on a bodily resurrection? Why do we assume it is the body that is resurrected? What about the many, many believers who for whatever reason, had their bodies totally destroyed when they died, as in bodies that were dismembered, or eaten by wild beasts like a tiger or lion, or who were burned at the stake, or in an accident, say like, 911?
Is there a "different" type of resurrection for those believers? If so, can someone supply us with Biblical proof?
I ponder over questions like these. 8-)
We know we will have glorified bodies because Jesus was ressurected with a glorified body and we will be like Him with bodies that can be touched that is have substance/skin bodies that we can eat with. As for those who were creamated, mutilated or whatever other kind of lated.
He did make us from the dirt and no less amazing He made dirt how hard could it possibly be for God to make us bodies? The dry bones story in ezekial 37 demonstrates this bodily ressurection I believe quit well.
