noyes - 1Corinthians:15:35-58

noyes@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will say, How are the dead to rise? and with what body do they come?

noyes@1Corinthians:15:36 @ Fool! that which thou sowest is not brought to life unless it die;

noyes@1Corinthians:15:37 @ and what thou sowest, not the body that shall be dost thou sow, but a bare grain, of wheat perhaps, or of some of the other grains;

noyes@1Corinthians:15:38 @ but God giveth it a body, as he willed, and to every seed its own body.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh; but there is one flesh of men, another of beasts, another of birds, another of fishes.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are also heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies; but the glory of the heavenly is one, and the glory of the earthly is another.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differeth from another star in glory.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;

noyes@1Corinthians:15:43 @ it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;

noyes@1Corinthians:15:44 @ it is sown an animal body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is an animal body, there is also a spiritual body.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:45 @ Thus is it also written: "The first man Adam became a living soul;" the last Adam a lifegiving spirit.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:46 @ But the spiritual is not first, but the animal; and afterward the spiritual.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:48 @ As was the earthy, such are they also that are earthy; and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly;

noyes@1Corinthians:15:49 @ and as we bore the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:50 @ And this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor doth corruption inherit incorruption.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep; but we shall all be changed,

noyes@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:54 @ So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then will be brought to pass that which is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

noyes@1Corinthians:15:55 @ "Where, O death, is thy sting? Where, O death, is thy victory?"

noyes@1Corinthians:15:56 @ The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the Law.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory, through our Lord Jesus Christ.

noyes@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, since ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
