Body » What type of bodies there are
But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Foolish man, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies; and what you sow, you sow not the body which shall be, but the naked grain, it may be of wheat, or some of the other grains; read more.
but God gives it a body as he pleases, and to each of the grains its own body. All flesh is not the same flesh; but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes. And there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; but the glory of the heavenly is one, and of the earthly another. There is one glory 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 destruction, it is raised in indestructibleness; 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. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. And thus it is written; The first man Adam became a living soul; the last Adam is a life-giving spirit. But the spiritual was not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man was from the earth, earthly, the second man is from heaven. Like the earthly, such also are the earthly; and like the heavenly, such also are the heavenly; and as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. But I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor shall destruction inherit indestructibleness.

Body » Resurrection of
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. But now Christ has been raised from the dead, a first fruit of those that have slept. For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead. read more.
For as in Adam all die, so in Christ also shall all be made alive. But each one in his own order; Christ a first fruit, then those who are Christ's at his coming; then is the end, when he delivers up the kingdom to the God and Father, when he will destroy every principality and every authority and power. For he must reign till he has put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy, death, shall be destroyed, for he put all things under his feet. But when he says that all things are put under him, it is clear that he is excepted who puts all things under him; and when all things have been put under him, then will the Son also himself be subject to him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. Else what will they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? and why are they baptized for them? Why also do we encounter danger every hour? By the joy on account of you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, of what advantage is it to me? If the dead rise not, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die. Be not deceived; evil companionships corrupt good morals. Awake to righteousness and sin not; for some have not a knowledge of God. I speak to your shame. But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Foolish man, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies; and what you sow, you sow not the body which shall be, but the naked grain, it may be of wheat, or some of the other grains; but God gives it a body as he pleases, and to each of the grains its own body. All flesh is not the same flesh; but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes. And there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; but the glory of the heavenly is one, and of the earthly another. There is one glory 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 destruction, it is raised in indestructibleness; 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. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. And thus it is written; The first man Adam became a living soul; the last Adam is a life-giving spirit. But the spiritual was not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man was from the earth, earthly, the second man is from heaven. Like the earthly, such also are the earthly; and like the heavenly, such also are the heavenly; and as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. But I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor shall destruction inherit indestructibleness. 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 last trumpet; for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead be raised, indestructible, and we shall be changed. For this destructible must put on indestructibleness, and this mortal must put on immortality. And when this destructible has put on indestructibleness, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall the word be accomplished that is written; Death was swallowed up in victory.

The Resurrection » Is not contrary to reason
I tell you most truly, that unless the kernel of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it continues alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Foolish man, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies; and what you sow, you sow not the body which shall be, but the naked grain, it may be of wheat, or some of the other grains; read more.
