^21 (A)who will transform our lowly body that it may be ^(B)conformed to His glorious body, ^(C)according to the working by which He is able even to ^(D)subdue all things to Himself.

^4 (A)When Christ who is ^(B)our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in ^(C)glory.

² Beloved, ^(A)now we are children of God; and ^(B)it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, ^(C)we shall be like Him, for ^(D)we shall see Him as He is.

^42 (A)So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. ^43 (B)It 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, ^(C)“The first man Adam became a living being.” ^(D)The last Adam became ^(E)a life-giving spirit.

⁴⁶ However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual. ^47 (F)The first man was of the earth, ^(G)made^[a] of dust; the second Man is ^[b]the Lord ^(H)from heaven. ⁴⁸ As was the ^[c]man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; ^(I)and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly. ⁴⁹ And ^(J)as we have borne the image of the man of dust, ^(K)we^[d] shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man.

Our Final Victory

⁵⁰ Now this I say, brethren, that ^(L)flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. ⁵¹ Behold, I tell you a ^[e]mystery: ^(M)We shall not all sleep, ^(N)but we shall all be changed— ⁵² in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. ^(O)For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. ⁵³ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and ^(P)this mortal must put on immortality. ⁵⁴ So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: ^(Q)“Death is swallowed up in victory.”

⁵⁶ The sting of death is sin, and ^(S)the strength of sin is the law.

²⁹ For whom ^(A)He foreknew, ^(B)He also predestined ^(C)to be conformed to the image of His Son, ^(D)that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

²⁴ Martha said to Him, ^(A)“I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

²⁵ Jesus said to her, “I am ^(B)the resurrection and the life. ^(C)He who believes in Me, though he may ^(D)die, he shall live. ²⁶ And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”

¹⁸ And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ^(A)“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

² and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.
