So also is the resurrection of the dead, it is sowen in corruption, it is raised in incorruption.

It is sowen in dishonour, it is raysed in glorie: it is sowen in weakenesse, it is raysed in power:

It is sowen a naturall body, it is raised a spirituall bodie. There is a naturall bodie, and there is a spirituall bodie.

And so it is written: The first man Adam was made a liuing soule, the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

Howbeit that was not first which is spirituall: but that which is naturall, and afterward that which is spirituall.

The first man is of the earth, earthy: The second man is the Lord from heauen.

As is the earthy, such are they that are earthy, and as is the heauenly, such are they also that are heauenly.

And as we haue borne the image of the earthy, wee shall also beare the image of the heauenly.

Now this I say, brethren, that flesh & blood cannot inherite the kingdome of God: neither doth corruption inherite incorruption.
