  Rather, really, in reality, life continues after this one, with the same kind of consciousness, though the external surroundings are certainly different, and not to mention the internal differences (lack of a sin-nature, eventual new body, much greater understanding, etc). And, it is there, in the next life, where Christ’s preeminence is visible for everyone to see for all eternity, for in the New Jerusalem, it is stated, “And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb” (Revelation 21:22, 23, ESV). We often refer to Christ in the body during his earthly ministry as being limited by the earthly body—and certainly that was true to some degree, though, to what degree that may be debated. The point is that “He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead”—because he has gone before us in being first.
