[15:50] I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
[15:51] Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
[15:52] in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.
[15:53] For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.
[15:54] When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.”
[15:55] “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?”
[15:56] The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
[15:57] But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
[15:58] Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
