For, just as the Father raises the dead and gives them Life, so also the Son gives Life to whom he pleases.
"I am the Resurrection and the Life," said Jesus. "He that believes in me shall live, though he die;
Even as thou gavest him power over all mankind, that he should give Immortal Life to all those whom thou has given him.
It is the Spirit that gives Life; mere flesh is of no avail. In the teaching that I have been giving you there is Spirit and there is Life.
Why do you all hold it incredible that God should raise the dead?
And, if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead lives within you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will give Life even to your mortal bodies, through his Spirit living within you.
That is what is meant by the words-'Adam, the first man, became a human being'; the last Adam became a Life-giving spirit.
