MZTV 1281: Longing For a Better Resurrection? Here's How it Works
I understand the bristling in the body of Christ when told by Paul that, just as in Israel, there is something they can do to obtain a better resurrection, and something they can do to lose it. This is not salvation, mind you, but a better resurrection after death.
People think that nothing ought to be gained by being a good person, and nothing ought to be lost by being a bad person. This is a rather strange and calloused opinion, if you ask me, but there it is. It's the result of being so awash in grace for so long that one simply turns a blind eye to Scriptural passages—passages in PAUL, mind you—that speak of seemly and unseemly behavior and of something besides "mere" eonian life. The reaction is either, 1) "How dare Paul bring up the topic of my behavior," or 2) "Paul is not really bringing up the topic of my behavior, it only SEEMS like he is."
The remedy to either 1) the complete ignoring of these passages or 2) the desperate twisting of them to make them say something other than what they are saying, is to appreciate the difference between 1) membership in the body of Christ and, 2) an exceeding glory and position WITHIN the body of Christ.
