When will “Spirit sowers” reap eternal life from the Spirit?

Galatians 6:8 (ESV)

8 For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

As with those who sow to the flesh, the reaping to come is a reference to the day of judgement. Unlike those who sow to the flesh, however, on the day when Christ returns in glory, those who sow to the Spirit will be welcomed into God’s new creation. 1
