eternal life to those who by perseverance in good works seek glory and honor and immortality,

It is the same with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable.

Grace be with all of those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.

For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.

Now this is what I am saying, brothers and sisters: Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

but now made visible through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus. He has broken the power of death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel!
