If part of a carcass falls on any seed for sowing that has yet to be sown, it is clean.
Nevertheless, a spring or a cistern for collecting water will be clean, though anyone who touches their carcass will become unclean.
But if water is put on the seed, and part of a carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.
As for what you sow—you are not sowing the body that will be, but a bare seed, maybe of wheat or something else.
You have been born again—not from perishable seed but imperishable—through the living and enduring word of God.
No one born of God practices sin, because God’s seed remains in him. He cannot sin, because he is born of God.
We know that anyone born of God does not keep on sinning; rather, the One born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot touch him.
