SERMON NOTES
I. The chances that we’ll die someday are pretty significant.
II. God will make all things brand new.
III A spirit filled heart and an empty tomb make us certain.
IV. Only God can judge. And God will.

FOR DISCUSSION AND REFLECTION
- What do you imagine when you think of heaven?
- In 1 Corinthians 15, the Apostle Paul says our current bodies are as different from our eternal bodies as a seed is from a plant. What does that mean to you?
- This passage points to our longing as evidence that there is another kingdom on the other side of this life. Where do you experience a longing for God’s perfect kingdom?
- What is the standard God will use to judge humanity? Is it fair?
- What will you do this week to prepare for the time when you will someday go “home” to be with God?
- What is God saying to you through today's scripture?
