Body » Resurrection of
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. But now Christ is risen from the dead, and is become the first-fruits of them that slept: for as by man came death, by man cometh also the resurrection of the dead. read more.
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. But each in their proper order: the first-fruits, Christ; afterwards they that are Christ's, at his coming. Then will be the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God even the Father; when He shall have abolished all rule, and all authority, and power. For he must reign till He hath put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy that is destroyed is death: for He hath put all things under his feet. But when He saith that all things are put under Him, it is plain that we are to except Him who put all things under Him. And when all things shall be subjected to Him, then shall the Son also himself be subject to Him, that put all things under Him, that God may be all in all. Besides, what shall they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why then are they baptized for the dead? And why are we in danger every hour? I protest by your rejoicing, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, that I am even dying daily. If, to speak as a man, I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantage have I, if the dead rise not? Let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die. --- Be not deceived, bad conversations corrupt good morals. Behave soberly, as ye ought to do, and sin not: for some of you have not the knowledge of God; to your shame I speak it. But some will say, How are the dead raised, and with what body do they come? Silly creature! that which thou sowest, is not quickened, except it die first. And as to what thou sowest, thou sowest not the very body that shall be produced, but a bare grain, it may be, of wheat, or any other corn: and God giveth it a body as He pleaseth, and to every one of the seeds it's own body. All flesh is not the same kind of flesh: but there is one flesh of men, and another of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds. There are also celestial bodies, and terrestrial bodies: but there is one glory of the celestial, and another of the terrestrial. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: and one star differeth from another star in glory. So also will be the resurrection of the dead. Our body is sown in corruption, it is raised incorruptible: it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown an animal body, it is raised a spiritual body: for there is an animal body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, "The first man Adam was made a living soul." But the last Adam is an enlivening spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the animal; and afterwards the spiritual. The first man being made out of the earth, was earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. Such as the earthy was, such are they also that are earthy: and such, as is the heavenly, are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. But this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor doth what is corruptible inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: we shall not all sleep; but we shall all be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the sound of the last trumpet (for the trumpet shall sound) and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed: for this corruptible body must put on incorruption, and this mortal body must be clothed with immortality. And when this corruptible shall be clothed with incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the word that is written, "Death is swallowed up in victory."
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. But each in their proper order: the first-fruits, Christ; afterwards they that are Christ's, at his coming. Then will be the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God even the Father; when He shall have abolished all rule, and all authority, and power.

But we see Jesus, who was made for a little while lower than the angels, in order to suffer death, that by the grace of God He might taste death for every man, crowned with glory and honor. For it became Him for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the author of their salvation perfect by sufferings: since He that sanctifieth, and they that are sanctified, are all of one. For which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren, read more.
saying, "I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the congregation will I praise Thee." And again, "I will trust in Him:" and again, "Behold, I, and the children which God hath given me." Seeing then the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also himself in like manner partook of them; that by death He might destroy him that had the empire of death, that is, the devil:

Jesus Christ » God the father being the head of jesus Christ
even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in all.
Jesus answered them, I have told you, and ye do not believe me: though the works that I do in the name of my Father, testify of me. But ye believe not; because ye are not of my sheep: for as I said unto you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. read more.
And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; nor shall any one force them out of my hand. My Father who gave them to me, is greater than all: and therefore none is able to force them out of my Father's hand.

Jesus answered and said unto him, If any one love me, he will observe my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and will make our abode with him. He that doth not love me, doth not observe my words: and yet the word that ye hear, is not mine, but the Father's who hath sent me. These things have I spoken unto you, while I have been with you. read more.
But the comforter, that is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said unto you.

Sin » How sin entered into the world
Wherefore as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin, so death passed upon all men, for to that all have sinned: for sin was in the world before the law. Now sin is not imputed where there is no law; and yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned after the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is the type of Him that was to come. read more.
But not as the offence, so also is the free gift: for if through the offence of one many died, much more hath the grace of God, and the gift bestowed by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many. For the gift is not as the sentence was by one that sinned; for the sentence is passed from one offence to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences to justification. For if, by the offence of one, death reigned through one, much more they who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness, shall reign in life through one, even Jesus Christ. Therefore as by the offence of one the effect of it was upon all men to condemnation: so also by the righteousness of one, the effect was upon all men to justification of life. For as by the disobedience of one man many were made sinners; so by the obedience of One shall many be made righteous. Now the law made some entrance, that the offence might appear to abound; but where sin abounded, grace hath superabounded; that as sin had reigned in death, so grace might reign through righteousness, unto eternal life, by Jesus Christ our Lord.

But now Christ is risen from the dead, and is become the first-fruits of them that slept: for as by man came death, by man cometh also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. read more.
But each in their proper order: the first-fruits, Christ; afterwards they that are Christ's, at his coming. Then will be the end, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God even the Father; when He shall have abolished all rule, and all authority, and power. For he must reign till He hath put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy that is destroyed is death: for He hath put all things under his feet.
