1 Corinthians 15:50 (ESV Strong's)
I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
The life of a creature on earth is in the blood. The life of those who will inherit the kingdom of God is in the Spirit. Blood is perishable, while the Spirit is imperishable.
We trade one life for the other. The perishable and imperishable are housed in these bodies of flesh until the world of the flesh is overcome and we partake in the light of the morning star. It is a process of transformation that happens over time. Jesus waits for us there.
