What do you believe about our physical bodies after our death? Do they return to dust as Genesis 3 tells us? Or are we resurrected in them on the judgement day? Do we recieve new bodies? When does this happen?

Thoughts, Comments, hold the tomatos.

Our physical bodies are resurrected at the end of the world and reunited with our souls which, in the meantime, had been in either heaven or hell. Hence "I believe in the resurrection of the body" (Apostles' Creed). Those who will go to the New Jerusalem will have their bodies glorified like Jesus and Mary. The bodies of those who are cast into the lake of fire will either be destroyed or corrupted.

Resurrected.

Is this an either/or question? Because I think the answer is both, our bodies corrupt (well, except some saints) and return to dust, but they will be resurrected and glorified.

Will our bodies be re-newed? As in, improved?

Yes, they will be glorified like Jesus' and Mary's bodies.
