highlighted 1 Corinthians 15:43-46 ESV
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.Thus it is written, "The first man Adam became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual.
