2 Corinthians 5:1-10
1 We know that if our earthly house (human body) (habitation of life) is destroyed; we have a building from God. It is an everlasting house in the heavens, not made with human hands.
2 In this we sigh (in silent prayer), longing to be clothed with our habitation that is from heaven.
3 Indeed being clothed we will not be found naked.
4 While in this tabernacle we groan and sigh with prayer. We are concerned that we would be clothed with what is mortal and be swallowed up (devoured) by this life.
5 He that prepared us for this very purpose is God. He gave the Spirit to us as a guarantee (pledge) (security).
6 We are always confident for we know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord.
7 We walk by faith, not by sight.
8 We are of good courage, I say, and are willing to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord.
9 We make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to him.
10 We must all appear before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether it is good or bad.
