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.
32. If from human motives I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
33. Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts good morals."
34. Become sober-minded as you ought, and stop sinning; for some have no knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.
35. But someone will say, "How are the dead raised? And with what kind of body do they come?"
36. You fool! That which you sow does not come to life unless it dies;
37. and that which you sow, you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat or of something else.
38. But God gives it a body just as He wished, and to each of the seeds a body of its own.
