The Resurrection of the Dead
12Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, zhow can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13But if there is no resurrection of the dead, athen not even Christ has been raised. 14And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. 15We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that bhe raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised. 16For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. 17And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and cyou are still in your sins. 18Then those also who dhave fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19If in Christ we have hope2 in this life only, ewe are of all people most to be pitied.
20But in fact fChrist has been raised from the dead, gthe firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21For as hby a man came death, iby a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22For jas in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then kat his coming lthose who belong to Christ. 24Then comes the end, when he delivers mthe kingdom to God the Father after destroying nevery rule and every authority and power. 25For he must reign ountil he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26The last enemy to be pdestroyed is death. 27For q“God3 has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him. 28When rall things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that sGod may be all in all.
