1 Corinthians 15:36-44

36You fool! Every time you plant seed you sow something that does not come to life [germinating, springing up and growing] unless it first dies.

37The seed you sow is not the body (the plant) which it is going to become, but it is a bare seed, perhaps of wheat or some other grain.

38But God gives it a body just as He planned, and to each kind of seed a body of its own [is given].

39All flesh is not the same. There is one kind for humans, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish.

40There are also heavenly bodies [sun, moon and stars] and earthly bodies [humans, animals, and plants], but the glory and beauty of the heavenly is one kind, and the glory of the earthly is another.

41There is a glory and beauty of the sun, another glory of the moon, and yet another [distinctive] glory of the stars; and one star differs from another in glory and brilliance.

42So it is with the resurrection of the dead. The [human] body that is sown is perishable and mortal, it is raised imperishable and immortal.

43It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in strength;

44it is sown a natural body [mortal, suited to earth], it is raised a spiritual body [immortal, suited to heaven]. As surely as there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body.
