So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in the perishable, it is raised in imperishability. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, The first man Adam developed into a living soul. The last Adam a life giving spirit. Nevertheless the spiritual is not first, but the natural, then the spiritual. The first man was of the earth, earthly. The second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthly, such also are the earthly. And as is the heavenly, such also are the heavenly. And just as we have worn the form of the earthly, we will also wear the form of the heavenly. Now this I affirm, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit imperishability. Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will actually not all sleep, but we will all be transformed, in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For it will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be transformed. For this perishable must put on imperishability, and this mortal put on immortality. But when this perishable will have put on imperishability, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written, Death was swallowed up in victory.

Know ye not that your bodies are body-parts of Christ? Therefore, having taken the body-parts of the Christ, should I make them body-parts of a harlot? May it not happen!

For just as the body is one and has many parts, and all the parts of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ. For also by one Spirit we are all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or freemen, and we were all made to drink into one Spirit.

If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body. And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling? But now God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body just as he intended. And if they were all one part, where would be the body? But now of course there are many body-parts, but one body. And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee, nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. Instead, much more the parts of the body that seem to be more feeble are necessary. And those things of the body presumed to be without esteem, we place around these more abundant worth. And our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety, whereas our presentable parts have no need. Instead, God united the body together, having given more abundant worth to the part that lacks, so that there would be no schisms in the body, but that the parts would have the same care for each other. And if one part suffers, all the parts suffer together, or one part is honored, all the parts rejoice together. Now ye are the body of Christ, and body-parts individually. And in the church God has placed men who are first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all do miracles? Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? But be zealous for the better gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.

But God gives it a body as he wills, and to each of the seeds its own body. All flesh is not the same flesh, but one of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds, and heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies (but the glory of the heavenly is different, and the glory of the earthly is different), another glory is of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in the perishable, it is raised in imperishability. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, The first man Adam developed into a living soul. The last Adam a life giving spirit. Nevertheless the spiritual is not first, but the natural, then the spiritual. The first man was of the earth, earthly. The second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthly, such also are the earthly. And as is the heavenly, such also are the heavenly. And just as we have worn the form of the earthly, we will also wear the form of the heavenly. Now this I affirm, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit imperishability.

For as by Adam all die, so also by Christ all will be made alive. But each in his own order. Christ the first fruit, then those of Christ at his coming. Afterwards the end, when he delivers up the kingdom to the God and Father, when he will abolishes all rule, and all authority and power. For he must reign until he will put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy abolished is death. For he subordinated all things under his feet. But when he says that all things have been subordinated, it is clear that he who subordinated all things under him, is excepted. And when all things are made subordinate to him, then the Son himself will also be made subordinate to him who subordinated all things to him, so that God may be all in all. Otherwise what will they do who are immersed for the dead? If the dead do not rise at all, why then are they immersed for the dead? And we, why are we in peril every hour? By the pride that belongs to you, that I keep in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. If in respect to men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what is the benefit to me if the dead are not raised? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die. Be not led astray. Evil associations corrupt good habits. Sober up rightly, and do not sin, for some have ignorance of God. I speak shame about you. But some man will say, How are the dead raised, and with what kind of body do they come? Thou foolish man, what thou sow is not made alive unless it dies. And what thou sow, thou do not sow the body that it will become, but a bare grain, if it may happen of wheat, or of some other kind. But God gives it a body as he wills, and to each of the seeds its own body. All flesh is not the same flesh, but one of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fishes, and another of birds, and heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies (but the glory of the heavenly is different, and the glory of the earthly is different), another glory is of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars, for star differs from star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in the perishable, it is raised in imperishability. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, The first man Adam developed into a living soul. The last Adam a life giving spirit. Nevertheless the spiritual is not first, but the natural, then the spiritual. The first man was of the earth, earthly. The second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthly, such also are the earthly. And as is the heavenly, such also are the heavenly. And just as we have worn the form of the earthly, we will also wear the form of the heavenly. Now this I affirm, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit imperishability. Behold, I tell you a mystery. We will actually not all sleep, but we will all be transformed, in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For it will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be transformed. For this perishable must put on imperishability, and this mortal put on immortality. But when this perishable will have put on imperishability, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come to pass the saying that is written, Death was swallowed up in victory.
