SCRIPTURE

"it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:" — 1 Corinthians 15:43 (ASV)

It is sown in dishonour;

For, with all the honour that we can pay to our departed dear ones, it is a dishonour to them to have to lie encased in a coffin, in the cold clay of the cemetery.

It is sown in weakness;

It is so weak that it cannot get into its own last resting-place, but must be tenderly laid there by others.

It is raised in glory:

Oh, the splendor of that resurrection!
