CHRIST IS RISEN!
INDEED HE IS RISEN!
CHRSITOS VOSKRESE!
VOISTINU VOSKRESE!
The Son of God, who in His compassion became man, died so far as His body was concerned when His soul was separated from His body; but this body was not separated from His divinity, and so He raised up His body once more and took it with Him to heaven in glory. Similarly, when those who have lived here in a godly manner are separated from their bodies, they are not separated from God, and in the resurrection they will take their bodies with them to God, and in their bodies they will enter with inexpressible joy there where Jesus has preceded us (cf. Heb. 6:20) and in their bodies they will enjoy the glory that will be revealed in Christ (cf. 1 Pet. 5:1).
Indeed, they will share not only in resurrection, but also in the Lord’s ascension and in all divine life.
