1 Corinthians 15:45ff Adam first & last

So also it is written, “The first man, Adam, became a living soul.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual. The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven. As is the earthy, so are those who are earthy; and as is the heavenly, so are those who are heavenly. Just as we have borne the image of the earthy, [o]we will also bear the heavenly image.

We all have bodies – each looks different and has different strengths and weaknesses.  But as physical earthly bodies, they are all alike.  All believers are promised life after death and bodies like Christ’s (15:49), resurrected bodies.
