THE SAINTS WILL NOT BE PRESENTED BEFORE THE PRESENCE OF GOD OR UNTO JESUS CHRIST UNTIL THE RESURRECTION FROM THE GRAVE
 

NOWING that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also, by Jesus, and shall present us with you.”  2Co 4:14. “That he might present it to himself a glorious church,”&c.  Eph 5:27. “Now unto him who is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory, with exceeding joy,”&c.  Jude 24 10. The spirit of God, now given to the saints is an earnest, not of felicity at death, but of their inheritance in the kingdom.

 Eph 1:13,14. “After that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy spirit of promise which is the earnest of your inheritance until the redemption of the purchases possession,”  Eph 1:14. “And grieve not the Holy spirit by which ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”  1Th 3:13. “To the end he may establish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, (when? at death?) at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.”
