Luther Joy

For as by the resurrection He has taken everything with Himself, so that heaven and earth, sun and moon, and all creatures must both rise and become new, so he will also take us along. The same God who wakened Christ from the dead, will also quicken our mortal bodies and with us also all creatures, now subject to vanity and anxiously longing for our glorification, will be freed from the perishable existence and be glorified. -- Homily for Easter Eve, 1532
