WHERE in Scripture does it say our bodies will be replaced?

Where does Scripture say that Elijah got a NEW body??????

Resurrection!!!!!!

Resurrection of WHAT?????

The Christian believes in the resurrection of the body, not replacement with a new body.

No, Christians do not believe that; catholics may believe that, but I know plenty of them that know that “corruption must put on incorruption.”

1Cr 15:50 ¶ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

1Cr 15:
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality.

Biological bodies, “flesh,” can only exist in Space-time, not in the realm of God. Our current home is to be destroyed:

2Peter 3:

10] But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

[11] Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

[12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

1 Corinthians 15:51-53 Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. 53 For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.

The Christian believes in the resurrection of the body, not replacement with a new body.

The resurrection of a sinful body still leaves us with a sinful body, which CANNOT be in the presence of a holy God.
