Our paragraph topic is: (Christ's answer) Part 3.
They knew not the scriptures nor the power of God. This is why they erred in their beliefs about the resurrection and life after death. The Sadducees did not believe in life after death. But they were curious as to what Christ had to say on the subject. They were certain of their beliefs. Their belief is what they had taught and known all their lives but Christ spoke of something different. He spoke of a father in heaven and life after death that made them curious.
This is why they came to him with the question of the widow and the seven brothers. They posed a question that would address the question of the resurrection. Christ told them that they were wrong in their thinking because they did not know the power of God. He told them: "But they will be as angels of God in heaven."
And there we have it from the living word of God himself as to what we will be in heaven. Christ has given us a picture of the shape and form of our future selves in heaven. We will be as angels of God.
Many people wander about the afterlife, what it will be, how it will be, where it will be. Here in the spoken words of the Messiah himself he tells us what we need to know of our future selves. A new type of form, other than the physical form. He tells us of a new being other than the mental. He tells us of a new type of spirit other than the soul that we know of today, a spiritual form of the angels given by the power of God our creator. Eye has not seen nor has the mind conceived of the things that God has prepared for those who love him. This is the power of God our creator.
