Future Life (2 Corinthians 5:1–5)
Christians sometimes have extrabiblical and/or unbiblical ideas about life beyond the grave. Second Corinthians 5:1–5 provides clarity about our future hope. Paul is at pains to make clear that Christians will be resurrected with a physical body into a material existence. He argues that that future hope provides us with what need to faithfully persevere until we die. There are four aspects to this future hope: 1. Confidence about the Future (v. 1) 2. Craving the Future (vv. 2–3) 3. Continuity with the Future (v. 4) 4. Confirmation of the Future (v. 5)
