Many who have been long dead and buried will wake up, some to eternal life, others to eternal shame.
ROMANS 14:9 (NTFE)
That is why the Messiah died and came back to life, so that he might be Lord both of the dead and of the living.

Eternal life isn't pie in the sky but an extension of what Jesus is doing in the here and now.
DAILY FODDER
How does the hope of eternal life affect who you are right now in this moment?
PRAYER
Jesus, Lord of the living and the dead, I neither understand how the dead will rise nor comprehend eternity. But my faith is firm because my hope is anchored in your promise that I will live forever because you died and rose again. Hallelujah! Thank you, Jesus! Give me wings to fly, proclaiming hope to people everywhere. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
