The verse for 8/10 is from Romans 8:10, "But if Christ lives in you, the Spirit is life for you because you have been put right with God, even though your bodies are going to die because of sin." GNT
I've heard it said that two things are certain, death and taxes. I don't know about taxes, but I have never met a human that lives forever...here on earth. Our physical bodies are guaranteed to give out. But, for Christ followers, that is not the end. Our belief in Christ, and His Spirit who lives in us, takes us from death into life; life everlasting.
Just because we sometimes don't experience the spiritual realm in the same sense that we do the physical realm, we have a hard time understanding it. Yet, the Spirit of God, within us, is the source from which we gain understanding. He is our life, both here on earth and forever in heaven. Our bodies will indeed pass away, but, for believers, our spirits will pass forever into heaven to be with our God. That's the life for me.
