1 Corinthians15:48

48. As is the earthy--namely, Adam.

they ... that are earthy--All Adam's posterity in their natural state (Joh 3:6, 7).

the heavenly--Christ.

they ... that are heavenly--His people in their regenerate state (Php 3:20, 21). As the former precedes the latter state, so the natural bodies precede the spiritual bodies.
