kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.

15:51. Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but
we shall not all be changed.

15:52. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for
the trumpet shall sound and the dead shall rise again incorruptible. And
we shall be changed.

15:53. For this corruptible must put on incorruption: and this mortal
must put on immortality.

15:54. And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to
pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.

15:55. O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?

15:56. Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law.

15:57. But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our
Lord Jesus Christ.

15:58. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable:
always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is
not in vain in the Lord.

16:7. For I will not see you now by the way: for I trust that I shall
abide with you some time, if the Lord permit.

16:8. But I will tarry at Ephesus, until Pentecost.

16:9. For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many
adversaries.

16:10. Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear: for he
worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.

16:11. Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct ye him on his way
in peace, that he may come to me. For I look for him with the brethren.
