The Clouds Of Heaven

        Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is on resurrection of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
         
            Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; becaused we have testified of God that raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then Christ is not raised.
           
              But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised incorruption. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of the Lord from heaven. If I have told you earthy things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things.
