Question: I understand that our resurrection bodies will be glorious, whole, and entire, even if on earth we have suffered disfigurement, loss of limb, or other physical handicaps or deficiencies. And yet, we're going to see the nail prints in Christ's hands! This seems like a contradiction as well as totally unjust and inequitable. What is your opinion?

Response: The marks of Calvary that Christ will bear throughout eternity are not in any way disfigurements to be regretted or healed. They will seem exceedingly beautiful and attractive to us—the eternal reminder of His love and sacrifice and the cost of our redemption.
