As is the earthy, such\r\nare they also that are earthy; and as is the heavenly, such\r\nare they also that are heavenly.

In the same epistle he puts this yet\r\nmore clearly: \"Since by man came death, by Man came also\r\nthe resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even\r\nso in Christ shall all be made alive,\"<a id=\"FNanchor_618_618\"></a><a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_618_618\">[618]</a>—that is to say, in a\r\nspiritual body which shall be made a quickening spirit.

We are not, then, by any\r\nmeans to suppose that we shall in the resurrection have such\r\na body as the first man had before he sinned, nor that the\r\nwords, \"As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy,\"\r\nare to be understood of that which was brought about by sin;\r\nfor we are not to think that Adam had a spiritual body before\r\nhe fell, and that, in punishment of his sin, it was changed into\r\nan animal body. If this be thought, small heed has been\r\ngiven to the words of so great a teacher, who says, \"There is\r\na natural body, there is also a spiritual body; as it is written,\r\nThe first man Adam was made a living soul.\" Was it after\r\nsin he was made so? or was not this the primal condition\r\nof man from which the blessed apostle selects his testimony\r\nto show what the animal body is?</p>","headings":["THE WORKS OF AURELIUS AUGUSTINE,","BOOK THIRTEENTH.","ARGUMENT."],"marker_anchor":null,"paragraph_id":"pg45304-paragraph-946"}],"canonical_references":[],"date_end":null,"date_start":null,"deduplication_fingerprint":"4d0cdb373087db5eba619a70e0418691290d5e84a5d52cd039a23cba1326ba54","edition_title":"The City of God, Volume I","edition_translators":["Marcus Dods","George Wilson (Book IV)","J.
