Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. — Philippians 3:21
Paul closes this section with hope. One day, Christ will change our body. This earthly body, marked by weakness and limitation, will be transformed into a glorious body like His.
This transformation is not based on our effort, but on His power-the same power by which He is able to subdue all things unto Himself.
This reminds me again-everything Paul has been teaching is pointing forward. The Christian life is not about what we gain here, but what we will receive there.
