Good, yes, we must put off this old Tent/tabernacle for a INDESTRUCTIBLE, incorruptible dwelling place. this tabernacle will be for ever.we shall be changed. ! Cor 15:52. the Greek behind this means exchanged
also the Bible teaches in 2 Cor 5:1 that our current body (SKENOS) is like a temporary tent (OIKIA) that will be taken down and we have a building (OIKODOME) a house(OIKIA) from God.
This verse refers to the diference between the two bodies like the difference bewteen the tent (tabernacle) in the wildrness and the Temple in Jerusalem. One was temporary, the other permanent.
as said, the OLD must be replaced with the NEW, 1 Corinthians 15:35 "But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?" 1 Corinthians 15:36 "Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:" 1 Corinthians 15:37 "And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:" 1 Corinthians 15:38 "But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body."
