"How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?" ... It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body ... behold, the kingdom of God is within you ... the witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son ... "I am the Door for the sheep" ...
1 Cor.15:35,44 (RSV); Lk.17:21 (KJV); 1 Jn.5:11 (NAS); Jn.10:7 (Beck)

Where do we go when this frail tent we leave?

Thou'lt gain a spirit-body, ye who b'lieve.

Then elsewhere, in a distant realm we'll dwell
-- beyond the galaxies, far from this vale?

'Tis in the realm invisible thou'lt be
which undergirds this seen reality
-- a realm thou now by faith can enter in.
The Kingdom which thou hope for is within!
The Door to its dimension, child, am I!
Seek Me, and I will open up thine eye
so though thou art yet here, thou wilt be there
and of My doings in this world aware!
Thou'lt see how My realm interpenetrates
this one, and all its workings operates ...

For in Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible ... all things were created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together ... Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God ... For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things ...
Col.1:16,17 (NAS); Rom.11:33,36 (NAS).
