Im Römerbrief 8:11, Paul schrieb, but if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit that dwells in you. Was meinte Paulus damit?? What does quicken your mortal body by His Spirit mean?
Because of Adam’s deed of disobedience, man became a mortal body
When Adam, der Sohn Gottes, became disobedient to God and sinned, death entered and the spirit in man died. The life of God left man and man came under the authority of death and became a mortal body.
Aber Jesus Christus, der Sohn Gottes, kam auf die Erde, to redeem mankind from the power of sin and death and to restore the state of fallen man and the peace between God and fallen man (Lesen Sie auch: Jesus stellte die Position des gefallenen Menschen wieder her Und Der Frieden, Jesus stellte zwischen dem gefallenen Menschen und Gott wieder her).
Jesus became the Substitute for fallen man and carried the sins and the death penalty for sin and entered Hades, where Jesus conquered death. Because after three days, Jesus Christ rose from the dead as Victor with the keys of hell and death.
Through Jesus’ redemptive work and His blood, Jesus restored the state of fallen man and made everyone, who would believe in Him and be born again in Him, whole.
The mortal body quickened by His Spirit during life on earth
Und er hat dich lebendig gemacht, die in Übertretungen und Sünden tot waren; In der vergangenen Zeit seid ihr dem Lauf dieser Welt entsprechend gewandelt, nach dem Fürsten der Macht der Luft, der Geist, der jetzt in den Kindern des Ungehorsams wirkt: Unter ihnen haben auch wir alle in vergangenen Zeiten unser Gespräch in den Begierden unseres Fleisches geführt, Erfüllung der Wünsche des Fleisches und des Geistes; und waren von Natur aus Kinder des Zorns, auch wie andere. But God, der reich ist an Barmherzigkeit, für seine große Liebe, mit der er uns geliebt hat, Selbst als wir in Sünden tot waren, hat uns zusammen mit Christus lebendig gemacht, (Durch Gnade seid ihr gerettet;) Und hat uns gemeinsam auferweckt, und hat uns in Christus Jesus an himmlischen Örtern zusammensitzen lassen: That in the ages to come He might shew the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus(Epheser 2:1-7)
Jesus Christ gave back that life, which was taken from man through Adam’s disobedience, when the Holy Spirit came and the spirit of man was raised from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit and the mortal body became a living body.
The mortal body became a living body through faith and regeneration in Jesus Christ and belonged to the Living Body of the Kingdom of Heaven; die Kirche, whereof Jesus Christ is the Head and is seated in the heavenly places in Him far above every principality, Leistung, Macht, dominion and every name that is named.
The born again man was translated from the kingdom of darkness; the domain of death to the Kingdom of God; the domain of life and was no longer a living soul but a living spirit (Kolosser 1:13-14).
The spiritual man (der neue Mann) would not live under the dominion of death and be led by the flesh and death, which reigns in the sinful nature of the flesh and do the works of the flesh.
But because the mortal body was quickened from the dead by the Holy Spirit and became alive to God, the spiritual man would possess the life of God and live under the authority of God and do the works of the Spirit.
The mortal body vs the quickened body
For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom He will (John 5:21)
The mortal body (Der alte Mann) is born from the dust of the earth from the seed of man and belongs to the earth and the ruler of the earth and the air and after life on earth, the mortal body shall return to the earth – the kingdom of death (Hölle, Hades), which is under the earth
The quickened body, who is made alive in Jesus Christ (der neue Mann) is born from heaven from the Seed of God and belongs to the Kingdom of Heaven and after life on earth, the quickened body will return to Heaven, which is above the earth
As long as a person remains the old man, the person shall belong to the ruler of the world and shall walk after the flesh like the world and live separated from God as an enemy of God. Because of that the person lives under the judgment of God and feels condemned in the soul.
The new man is reconciled with God through the atonement of Jesus Christ and His blood and regeneration in Him; the death of the flesh and the resurrection of the spirit from the dead.
The enmity between man and God has been removed in Christ. The new man doesn’t live separated from God like the world as an enemy of God, but lives in communion with God in obedience to His will. The new man is born of God and belongs to God and has His nature and does what pleases Him.
The mortal body quickened by His Spirit after life on earth
But if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit that dwelleth in you (Römer 8:11)
When the mortal body is quickened in Christ by the Holy Spirit during life on earth, then after life on earth, after physical death, the mortal body shall be quickened by His Spirit.
Because after life on earth, every person returns to the One or the one, (S)he belongs to and served; the Life (Jesus Christus) or the death (der Teufel).
If you are born again in Christ and your spirit is raised from the dead and your mortal body has been quickened and become a living body in Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit during your life on earth, then the Holy Spirit, who dwells in you, shall quicken your mortal body when you die. You shall not see death, but you shall inherit eternal life.
