Tertullian Against Marcion Book V If, again, Christ in His advent from heaven "shall change the body of our humiliation, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body,"[928] Tertullian On the Resurrection of the Flesh It was as full of this splendid example that Paul said: "Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto His glorious body."[429] Origen Against Celsus Book VII also, "Who will change the body of our humiliation."[126] Cyprian Epistle LXXVI All that deformity, detestable and foul to Gentiles, with what splendour shall it be recompensed! This temporal and brief suffering, how shall it be exchanged for the re ward of a bright and eternal honour, when, according to the word of the blessed apostle, "the Lord shall change the body of our humiliation, that it may be fashioned like to the body of His brightness!"[6] Cyprian Treatise VII On the Mortality into the likeness of Christ, and to arrive more quickly to the dignity of heavenly glory, since Paul the apostle announces and says, "For our conversation is in heaven, from whence also we look for the Lord Jesus Christ; who shall change the body of our humiliation, and conform it to the body of His glory? "[44] Methodius From the Discourse on the Resurrection The transformation, he says, is the restoration into an impassible and glorious state. For now the body is a body of desire and of humiliation,[110] Origen Commentary on Matthew Book XII since He formerly became conformed to "the body of our humiliation,"[190] Origen Commentary on Matthew Book XIII with "the body of humiliation," and do all things that they may become worthy to be found in the mystery of the resurrection, when God shall fashion anew the body of humiliation not of all, but of those who have been truly made disciples to Christ, so that it may be conformed to the body of the glory of Christ.[140]
