Sow the perishable to reap the imperishable

“It is the same too with the resurrection of the dead: what is sown is perishable, but what is raised is imperishable” 1Corinthians 15:42

The resurrection of the dead is a great mystery. We repeat our faith in this mystery every Sunday when we say, “I believe in the resurrection of the dead”. There are two kinds of bodies: the first type is perishable, which we receive from our human parents, and the second is imperishable, which we will receive from the Spirit of God on the last day. But here is the mystery: only those who sow in the Spirit while on earth can reap the reward of the Spirit, which is the resurrection to an imperishable life.
