23. But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, after that those who are Christ's at His coming,
24. then comes the end, when He hands over the kingdom to the God and Father, when He has abolished all rule and all authority and power.
25. For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet.
26. The last enemy that will be abolished is death.
27. For He has put all things in subjection under His feet. But when He says, "All things are put in subjection," it is evident that He is excepted who put all things in subjection to Him.
28. When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all.
29. Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?
30. Why are we also in danger every hour?
31. I affirm, brethren, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
