And we are found also false witnesses of God :
for we haue testified of God ,
that he hath raised vp Christ :
whome he hath not raised vp ,
if so be the dead be not raised .
*
*
And if Christ be not raised ,
your faith [
is ]
vain ; (
note :)
First ,
seeing death is the punishment of sin ,
in vain should we believe that our sins were forgiven us ,
if they remain :
but they do remain ,
if Christ did not rise from death .(:

nor have obtained remission of their sins .
yet in your sins .

For as in Adam all die ,
even so in Christ shall all be (

For he must reign ,
till he hath put all enemies (

Christ is considered here as he appeared in the form of a servant ,
in which respect he rules the Church as head ,
and that because this power was given to him from his Father .(:

it is manifest that he is excepted ,
which did put downe all things vnder him .)

And when all things shall be subdued unto him , (
note :)
Not because the Son was not subject to his Father before ,
but because his body ,
that is to say ,
the Church which is here in distress ,
and not yet wholly partaker of his glory ,
is not yet fully perfect :
and also because the bodies of the saints which are in the graves ,
will not be glorified until the resurrection .
But Christ as he is God ,
has us subject to him as his Father has ,
but as he is Priest ,
he is subject to his Father together with us .

then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him ,
that By this high type of speech is set forth an incomprehensible glory which flows from God ,
and will fill all of us ,
as we are joined together with our head ,
but yet in such a way that our head will always preserve his preeminence .
God may be all in all .
