II Corinthians: Made New in Christ
Our Earthly Tent, Our Heavenly House, II Corinthians 5:1-5

 

I.      Death: Our earthly, temporary tent is torn down
 
II.     Eternity: We have a permanent house from God
 
III.    Intermediate state between death and eternity:
        Without a building, waiting on our final house
 
IV.    Our eternal hope: This mortal will be swallowed up by life
 
V.     God's earnest money on our future house: The Holy Spirit
