My body is decaying
In book of John, The disciples asked Jesus, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" Jesus replied: ""Neither this man nor his parents sinned".
Its not my own sins nor my parents sins caused my deafness. It was our "sinful nature" that Adam/Eve gave us. In Psalm 51:5, "Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me." We live in a tent (temporary body). A temporary body which is AGING and our physical bodies are going to DIE someday. Our bodies are carrying the disease called sin and sin will make our bodies go back to DUST when we die. CHRISTIANS are not immuned to temporary diseases however, we are immuned to eternal disease called eternal death (hell). Romans 7:17-18, "It is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.1 Corinthians 15:42 "So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable." 1 Corinthians 15:44 "it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body."
Romans 8:10 "But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness." Sin causes our bodies to decay and we will die one day. Romans 8:13, "For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die" 1 Corinthians 15:44 "It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body."
Romans 7:25 "Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin." 1 Corinthians 15:47 "The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven." 2 Corinthians 4:18 "So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."
