Mystery and Victory

⁵⁰  I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 

⁵¹  Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 

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. 

⁵³  For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, andthis mortal body must put on immortality. 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.”

⁵⁵ 

“O death, where is your victory?

    O death, where is your sting?”

⁵⁶  The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 

⁵⁷ But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

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.

(1 Corinthians 15:50-58 ESV)
