In Christianity, the apostle Paul introduced the concept of the spiritual body (Koine Greek:) in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 15:44), describing the resurrected body as "spiritual" in contrast to the natural body:
Christian teaching traditionally interprets Paul as comparing a resurrected body with a mortal body, saying that it will be a different kind of body; a "spiritual body", meaning an immortal body, or incorruptible body (15:53—54).[1] In the Catholic Church, traditionally the resurrected body is called the "glorified body", and possessed four characteristics: incorruptibility, subtlety, impassibility, and agility. The bodies of the damned are also raised incorrupt, but not glorified or free from suffering.
