Because of Messiah’s resurrection we have a bright present. “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you” Romans 8:11 (NASB). This is life now and final resurrection later. We need the animating, life-giving Spirit as much now as we will later. We are utterly blessed by the One who dwells in us.
