1 Corinthians 15:45‑49  •  1 min. read  •  grade level: 3
 
Whatever has been ruined in the first man will be gloriously established in the Second Man.
Adam fell, and was ruined. Christ is in the glory of God.
The law was broken. It shall presently be written on men's hearts.
The priests failed. Our Great High Priest can never fail. The kingdom failed. His throne is forever and ever.
It will all be a thousand times more glorious than what was lost—infinitely more so.
And so with the church. He will have it for His bride, He will be " glorified in his saints, and... admired in all them that have1 believed,... in that day."
