................In 2 Corinthians 7:1, it should be clear that moral filthiness is not confined to the flesh but can also be of the spirit. So, if someone has filthiness of the spirit, will they not retain that filthiness when they receive their new bodies? Because they will still have the same spirit as before they received their new bodies.
We can read when Jesus healed people they had in a sense a re-newed healthy body.
Those people lived but still later died because it was Not time for an earthly resurrection.
So, at Resurrection Day (Jesus' Millennium-Long day of governing over Earth) they will be resurrected with the same leanings they had at the time they died.
Yes, the resurrected person will retain their leanings although having a 'new' resurrected body aka a healthy physical body.
If not before, by the end of the thousand years those who, so to speak, keep a ' filthiness of spirit ' will be destroyed.

They will be cast into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:15); which indicates eternal torments (Revelation 20:10).
1Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key to the Abyss, holding in his hand a great chain. 2He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3And he threw him into the Abyss, shut it, and sealed it over him, so that he could not deceive the nations until the thousand years were complete. After that, he must be released for a brief period of time.
Its why it says a thousand years, so you would not it was a day, a taste, and then chaos.

Wait a minute...I thought the bible says Satan is the ruler/god of our world?
How can he be bound in the pit AND ruling over our world at the same time? And if he was released from this bondage at some point, this should be very obvious and a noticeable event in world history, (we would see many years of peace, and then suddenly things go south quickly), but history has not shown that?

Why does the Lord have to "come like a thief in the night"? Is He up to no good? Does He want to leave a part of His own creation still living in ignorance with no chance at salvation? Why would God do that? And how do you know that a day with the Lord is worth a thousand years? We're talking eternity here and in that context a day worth a thousand years is a day that flashes by so quickly, we barely notice it.
The best description of eternity that I have ever come across goes like this:
Suppose you had a very fine sheet made of the best of silk and large enough to cover the Himalayas. Every 1,000 years you carefully unpack that sheet of silk and ever so lightly pass it across the peaks of the mountains. You do this until finally the Himalayas begin to crumble. At first it's just a rock here or a pebble there. But if you persist with your task, one thousand years at a time, eventually the Himalayas will be nothing more than a few piles of sand. It is at this point that you can say that eternity has finally just begun.
One week is seven days. Seven thousand years speaks of creation.
God created in six days, and we are at the end of six thousand years. In the seventh day He rested, and this next thousand years we will too.
It's all about to roll over.
