    42So it is with the resurrection of the dead: what is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable.

    43It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.

    44It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.

    45So it is written: 'The first man, Adam, became a living being'; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

    47The first man was from the earth, made of dust; the second man is from heaven.

    48As was the man of dust, so are those who are of the dust; and as is the man of heaven, so are those who are of heaven.

    49And just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.

    50Now I say this, brothers and sisters: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

    4Nicodemus said to Him, 'How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb a second time and be born?'

    5Jesus answered, 'Truly, truly, I tell you, unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.'

    6What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit.

    7Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’

    10Now God has revealed these things to us by His Spirit, for the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.

    11For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person that is within him? In the same way, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

    12Now, we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what has been freely given to us by God.

    13We also speak these things, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit—explaining spiritual truths to spiritual people.

    14But the natural person does not accept the things of God's Spirit, because they are foolishness to him. He cannot understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

    15The spiritual person examines all things, but he himself is not subject to being examined by anyone.

    35But someone will ask, 'How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?'

    36Foolish one, what you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

    37And what you sow, you do not sow the body that will be, but a bare seed—perhaps of wheat or something else.

    38But God gives it a body as He has determined, and to each kind of seed its own body.

    39Not all flesh is the same: humans have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds have another, and fish have another.

    40There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is another.
