1. The exact nature of the “more” that our new bodies can do was the subject of much discussion during the writing of this book. It is possible that the level of power or ability is related to the position that the person will be assigned in the future. Christ, Lord of all, was given “all authority.” We see glimpses in Scripture that some angels are more powerful than others (Ezek. 28:12–14; Dan. 10:12–14; Rev. 10:1; 18:21). It is quite possible that the supernatural ability that a person has is somehow related to the tasks he is given to perform. It is also possible that our new bodies will be able to do things that God has not even hinted about in Scripture. God can do “immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine” (Eph. 3:20), and it is possible that there is much about the new body that He has not revealed. Close
