Verses on the spiritual resurrection of the saints
The Scriptures teach us that as Christ was crucified physically, put to death physically, buried physically, and resurrected from the dead physically, so were His people, through His indwelling Spirit, buried bodily (yet non-physically) with Him into His death; and while thus dying bodily (yet non-physically) with Him (to Sin), His people were concurrently being resurrected bodily (yet non-physically) with Him through the same indwelling Spirit (Rom. 8:11) in anticipation of the end of the old covenant age.
We know that the “body” was raised non-physically, because the “body” that was non-physically buried with Christ andnon-physically put to death with Him was, as Paul’s logic demands, to be resurrected
with Christ out of its non-physical burial and non-physical death (which was death to the Adamic world of Sin, Death, and the Law). Therefore, the eschatological resurrection of “the body” wasnecessarily non-physical (not abiological resurrection). -These above notes from brother David Green
John 11:25-26 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, 26 and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
Romans 6:4-6 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walkin newness of life.
5 Forif we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his. 6 We know that our old self was crucified with him in orderthat the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer beenslaved to sin.
Romans6:8 Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
Romans7:4-7 Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God.5 even when we were dead in ourtrespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 sothat in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace inkindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
Romans 8;11 If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

Colossians2:12-13 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him fromthe dead.13 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,
Colossians2:20 If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the world, why, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations—
Colossians3:1 If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above,where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
