I see it here in Ephesians too. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ by grace you have been saved , and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, Ephesians NKJV.
To be present with Christ, and to sit together with Him in heavenly places would be the same, and is a currently ongoing process. I see 2 Corinthians 5 as a continuation of his theme. Paul is describing the life in the flesh or body which separates us from Christ, as opposed to living by faith and being present with Christ right here on earth. He goes on in verse 17 and describes a new creation right here on earth. Paul strongly hits this point again in Titus.
For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.
Titus NKJV. In 2 Corinthians and again in Titus grace changes us right here on earth in the present age. But instead of comparing myself to others and getting discouraged I stay focused on Jesus. Philippians NKJV. I know Jesus loves me, and I keep my eyes focused on Him as His grace draws me closer to Him day by day. I left the flesh when I was baptized and crucified to self.
The plan is, that long before the second coming it will be seen that every day I am not living in the body or flesh, but in the Spirit as I practice the presence of Jesus. See Romans and Luke My heart is not with my body.
