1 Corinthians 15:45-58
45Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.
46But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual.
47The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven.
48As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven.
49Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.
50I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
51Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.
53For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.
54When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
55“O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?”
56The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
