33 Do not be deceived: a“Evil company corrupts good habits.”
34 aAwake to righteousness, and do not sin; bfor some do not have the knowledge of God. cI speak this to your shame.
A Glorious Body
35 But someone will say, a“How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?”
36 Foolish one, awhat you sow is not made alive unless it dies.
37 And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain—perhaps wheat or some other grain.
38 But God gives it a body as He pleases, and to each seed its own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind1 of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.
40 There are also1 celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
42 aSo also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.
43 aIt is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.
44 It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, a“The first man Adam became a living being.” bThe last Adam became ca life-giving spirit.
46 However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual.
