The Mystery of Resurrection
50 Now I say this, brothers and sisters, that (A)flesh and blood cannot (B)inherit the kingdom of God; nor does [a]the perishable inherit [b](C)the imperishable. 51 Behold, I am telling you a [c](D)mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be (E)changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for (F)the trumpet will sound, and (G)the dead will be raised [d]imperishable, and (H)we will be changed.
