*
But each one in his own order :
Christ the firstfruits ,
afterward those who are Christ '
s at His coming .
*
Then comes the end ,
when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father ,
when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power .
*
For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet .
*
The last enemy that will be destroyed is death .
*
For "
He has put all things under His feet ."
But when He says "
all things are put under Him ,"
it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted .
*
Now when all things are made subject to Him ,
then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him ,
that God may be all in all .
*
Otherwise ,
what will they do who are baptized for the dead ,
if the dead do not rise at all ?
Why then are they baptized for the dead ?
*
And why do we stand in jeopardy every hour ?
*
I affirm ,
by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord ,
I die daily .
*
If ,
in the manner of men ,
I have fought with beasts at Ephesus ,
what advantage is it to me ?
If the dead do not rise , "
Let us eat and drink ,
for tomorrow we die !"
*
Do not be deceived : "
Evil company corrupts good habits ."
*
Awake to righteousness ,
and do not sin ;
for some do not have the knowledge of God .
I speak this to your shame .
*
But someone will say , "
How are the dead raised up ?
And with what body do they come ?"
*
Foolish one ,
what you sow is not made alive unless it dies .
*
And what you sow ,
you do not sow that body that shall be ,
but mere grain--perhaps wheat or some other grain .
*
But God gives it a body as He pleases ,
and to each seed its own body .
*
All flesh is not the same flesh ,
but there is one kind of flesh of men ,
another flesh of animals ,
another of fish ,
and another of birds .
*
There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies ;
but the glory of the celestial is one ,
and the glory of the terrestrial is another .
*
There is one glory of the sun ,
another glory of the moon ,
and another glory of the stars ;
for one star differs from another star in glory .
*
So also is the resurrection of the dead .
The body is sown in corruption ,
it is raised in incorruption .
*
It is sown in dishonor ,
it is raised in glory .
It is sown in weakness ,
it is raised in power .
*
It is sown a natural body ,
it is raised a spiritual body .
There is a natural body ,
and there is a spiritual body .
*
And so it is written , "
The first man Adam became a living being ."
The last Adam became a life-giving spirit .
*
However ,
the spiritual is not first ,
but the natural ,
and afterward the spiritual .
*
The first man was of the earth ,
1made of dust ;
the second Man is the Lord from heaven .
*
As was the man of dust ,
so also are those who are made of dust ;
and as is the heavenly Man ,
so also are those who are heavenly .
*
And as we have borne the image of the man of dust ,
we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man .
*
Now this I say ,
brethren ,
that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God ;
nor does corruption inherit incorruption .
*
Behold ,
I tell you a mystery :
We shall not all sleep ,
but we shall all be changed --
