1 Corinthians 15:43-53
43it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in aglory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44it is sown a bnatural body, it is raised a cspiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45So also it is written, “The first d man, Adam, became a living soul.” The elast Adam became a flife-giving spirit. 46However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. 47The first man is gfrom the earth, ▼▼ Lit made of dust
,
iearthy; the second man is from heaven. 48As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, jso also are those who are heavenly. 49Just as we have kborne the image of the earthy, ▼▼ Two early mss read let us also
we mwill also bear the image of the heavenly. The Mystery of Resurrection
50Now I say this, brethren, that nflesh and blood cannot oinherit the kingdom of God; nor does ▼▼ Lit corruption
the perishable inherit ▼▼ Lit incorruption
,
rthe imperishable. 51Behold, I tell you a smystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be tchanged, 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for uthe trumpet will sound, and vthe dead will be raised ▼▼ Lit incorruptible
imperishable, and xwe will be changed. 53For this ▼▼ Lit corruptible
perishable must put on ▼▼ Lit incorruption
,
aathe imperishable, and this abmortal must put on immortality.
