Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

⁴² So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, and rises again in incorruption. ⁴³ It is sown in dishonour, and rises in honour. It is sown in weakness, and rises in power. ⁴⁴ It is sown a natural body, and rises a spiritual body. ⁴⁵ There is a natural body and there is a spiritual body; as it is written, the first man Adam was made a living soul, and the last Adam was made a life-giving spirit. ⁴⁶ However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and then that which is spiritual.

⁴⁷ The first man is of the earth, earthly. And the second man is the Lord from heaven. ⁴⁸ As is the earthly, such are those who are earthly; and as is the heavenly, such are those who are heavenly. ⁴⁹ And as we have borne the image of the earthly, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly.
