Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

They [our bodies] shall shine with the effulgence of the divine glory, because of their nearness to God, who dwells in a "light which no man can approach unto" and "who covereth Himself with light as a garment;" and they shall be incorruptible because they are like the angels, nay, rather, because they shall be changed into the likeness of the glorified body of Christ. -- Blessed Johann Gerhard, *Sacred Meditation XLVIII
