1 Corinthians 15

Thank you, Father, that through my Lord Jesus, the Christ, I have victory over death, hell and the grave.

By your grace and redemption power my body is sown in corruption and raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.

The spiritual does not come first, but rather the natural, and after that the spiritual. The first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second man is the Lord from heaven. As I have borne the image of the man of dust, I shall also bear the image of the Heavenly Man.

Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. But, at the time appointed by you, heavenly father, in the twinkling of an eye, we shall all be changed.

Your trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible. For corruptible must put on incorruption, and mortal must put on immortality.
