Charles Spurgeon Commentary Romans 8:11

"But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwelleth in you, he that raised up Christ Jesus from the dead shall give life also to your mortal bodies through his Spirit that dwelleth in you." — Romans 8:11 (ASV)

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

You believers may have a good hope concerning your bodies: He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies. Wait a while, therefore; what God has done for your souls he will in due time do for your bodies also. This should make you long for the day of Christ's appearing, as Paul says in Romans 8:23, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body, when Christ shall appear, and we shall be raised—"From beds of dust and silent clay"—the body itself born a second time, regenerate like the soul.

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells in you.

The blessing of life is to come to the body too; it shall be immortal eventually, delivered from all the infirmities and sorrows which sin and death have brought upon it.

But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

So there is coming a time for your body to experience the adoption, namely, the redemption of the body. He does not say that He will give you a new body. Do not believe this modern doctrine. But He shall quicken your mortal body; that is to say, the same body, which is now subject to death, and so is mortal, is to be quickened at the resurrection.

But if the Spirit of Him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised up Christ from the dead will also quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit that dwells in you.

There is to be an emancipation even for this poor flesh, a translation and a glory for it yet in Christ.
