“As is the earthy, such are they also that
are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And
as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the
heavenly” (1 Corinthians 15:48-49).
To obtain the image of the heavenly requires
the “Light of Life” Only Jesus, the only begotten Son of God has been given the
power by his Father to give this “Light of Life”.
“Wherefore God saith: ‘Awake thou that
sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light’”
(Ephesians 5:14).
“And so it is written, the first man Adam was
made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. The first man
is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven” (1 Corinthians
15:45, 47).
Jesus, the only begotten Son of God says: “I
am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but
shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). “As long as I am in the world, I am
the light of the world” (John 9:5).
“I am the resurrection, and the life: he that
believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth
and believeth in me shall never die” (John 11:25–26).
“For as the Father rises up the dead, and
quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. For the Father
judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: That all men
should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He that honoreth not the
Son honoreth not the Father which hath sent him. For as the Father hath life in
himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; and hath given
him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man” (John 5:
21–23, 26–27).
“No
man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will
raise him up at the last day” (John 6:44).
