John 5:28

Verse 28

But the Lord, so far from retracting, rather gave the idea a still more explicit shape and language.

The hour is coming But not now is.

All that are in the grave It is universal, ALL. It is bodily, and of the same body that was buried. The very bodies that are laid in the graves are the bodies that arise. The very body that dies is the body that revives.
