1 Corinthians 15:20-34

« 1 Cor 141 Cor 151 Cor 16 »

20 But now Christ ^ahas been raised from the dead, the ^bfirst fruits of those who have ^cfallen asleep. 21 For since ^aby a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22 For ^aas in Adam all die, so also in ¹Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ ^athe first fruits, after that ^bthose who are Christ’s at ^cHis coming. 24 Then comes the end, when He hands over ^athe kingdom to the ^bGod and Father, when He has abolished ^call rule and all authority and power. 25 For He must reign ^auntil He has put all His enemies under His feet. 26 The last enemy to be ^aabolished is death. 27 For ^aHe has put all things in subjection under His feet. But when He says, “^bAll things are put in subjection,” it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him. 28 And when ^aall things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that ^bGod may be all in all.
29 Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized ¹for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them? 30 Why are we also ^ain danger every hour? 31 I affirm, brothers, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, ^aI die daily. 32 If ¹from human motives I ^afought with wild beasts at ^bEphesus, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, ^clet us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die. 33 ^aDo not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good morals.” 34 ^aBecome righteously sober-minded, and stop sinning; for some have ^bno knowledge of God. ^cI speak this to your shame.
