flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed

 1 Corinthians 15:29-58

Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.” Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame.

When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or of something else.  But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body. 

So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable;  it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.

I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed  in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. 

The saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Why?

Our flesh body can not accept the imperishable body, but we will change to another body, an imperishable body, to live in an imperishable place with the Lord.

Trust in Jesus Christ and do what we should do to obey the words of the Lord, love each other.

Gos is love, so we should love others. For the Lord loves us first.

How?

We have the hope that after we perish in our physical body and we will change to another bodily shape in heaven.
