1 Corinthians 15:43-53

43it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in 1glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44it is sown a 2natural body, it is raised a 3spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45So also it is written, “The first 4man, Adam, became a living soul.” The 5last Adam became a 6life-giving spirit. 46However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. 47The first man is 7from the earth, 89earthy; the second man is from heaven. 48As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, 10so also are those who are heavenly. 49Just as we have 11borne the image of the earthy, 12we 13will also bear the image of the heavenly.

50Now I say this, brethren, that 14flesh and blood cannot 15inherit the kingdom of God; nor does 16the perishable inherit 1718the imperishable. 51Behold, I tell you a 19mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be 20changed, 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for 21the trumpet will sound, and 22the dead will be raised 23imperishable, and 24we will be changed. 53For this 25perishable must put on 2627the imperishable, and this 28mortal must put on immortality.
