46 But the physical body comes first, not the spiritual one—the spiritual body comes afterward.
47 The first human was from the earth made from dust; the second human is from heaven.
48 The nature of the person made of dust is shared by people who are made of dust, and the nature of the heavenly person is shared by heavenly people.
49 We will look like the heavenly person in the same way as we have looked like the person made from dust.
50 This is what I’m saying, brothers and sisters: Flesh and blood can’t inherit God’s kingdom. Something that rots can’t inherit something that doesn’t decay.
51 Listen, I’m telling you a secret: All of us won’t die, but we will all be changed—
52 in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the final trumpet. The trumpet will blast, and the dead will be raised with bodies that won’t decay, and we will be changed.
