42 So also is the resurrection of
the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised
in incorruption:
43 It is sown in
dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in
weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is
sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual
body. There is a natural body, and there is a
spiritual body.
45 And so it is written,
The first man Adam was made a living soul; the
last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46
Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but
that which is natural; and afterward that which is
spiritual.
47 The first man is of the
earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from
heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they
also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such
are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as
we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall
also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now
this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot
inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth
corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold,
I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but
we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in
the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for
the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be
raised incorruptible, and we shall be
changed.
53 For this corruptible must put
on incorruption, and this mortal must put on
immortality.
54 So when this corruptible
shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal
shall have put on immortality, then shall be
brought to pass the saying that is written, Death
is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death,
where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy
victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and
the strength of sin is the law.
57 But
thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory
through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast,
unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the
Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not
in vain in the
Lord. |
