1 Corinthians 15:48-57

48As is the earthy, so also are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, 1so also are those who are heavenly. 49Just as we have 2borne the image of the earthy, 3we 4will also bear the image of the heavenly.

50Now I say this, brethren, that 5flesh and blood cannot 6inherit the kingdom of God; nor does 7the perishable inherit 89the imperishable. 51Behold, I tell you a 10mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be 11changed, 52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for 12the trumpet will sound, and 13the dead will be raised 14imperishable, and 15we will be changed. 53For this 16perishable must put on 1718the imperishable, and this 19mortal must put on immortality. 54But when this 20perishable will have put on 21the imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written, “22Death is swallowed up in victory. 5523O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” 56The sting of 24death is sin, and 25the power of sin is the law; 57but 26thanks be to God, who gives us the 27victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
