Question:
What does the scripture mean when it states, “It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory”?
Answer:
The Bible says, “It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:” (1 Corinthians 15:43)
The text emphasizes that, from a purely human perspective, a believer’s body is corruptible, decaying, and not deserving of honor; in fact, it is often seen as dishonorable. Many believers have faced a disgraceful death in the eyes of the world, yet they will rise from the grave in the glory of Christ Jesus.
