45The Scriptures tell us, “The first man, Adam, became a living person.” But the last Adam—that is, Christ—is a life-giving Spirit.
46What comes first is the natural body, then the spiritual body comes later.
47Adam, the first man, was made from the dust of the earth, while Christ, the second man, came from heaven.
48Earthly people are like the earthly man, and heavenly people are like the heavenly man.
49Just as we are now like the earthly man, we will someday be like the heavenly man.
