Basic HTML Version
have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and
all authority and power.
25
For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26
The last
enemy
that
shall be destroyed
is
death.
27
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he
saith, all things are put under
him, it is
manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under
him.
28
And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject
unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
29
Else what shall they do which
are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
30
And
why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
31
I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus
our Lord, I die daily.
32
If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what
advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.
33
Be not deceived:
evil communications corrupt good manners.
34
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have
not the knowledge of God: I speak
this
to your shame.
35
But some
man
will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36
Thou
fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
37
And that which thou sowest,
thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other
grain:
38
But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39
All
flesh
is
not the same flesh: but
there is
one
kind of
flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of
fishes,
and
another of birds.
40
There are
also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory
of the celestial
is
one, and the
glory
of the terrestrial
is
another.
41
There is
one glory of the sun,
and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for
one
star differeth from
another
star in glory.
42
So also
is
the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in
incorruption:
43
It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in
power:
44
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there
is a spiritual body.
45
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last
Adam
was made
a quickening spirit.
46
Howbeit that
was
not first which is spiritual, but that which
is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47
The first man
is
of the earth, earthy: the second
man
is
the Lord from heaven.
48
As
is
the earthy, such
are
they also that are earthy: and as
is
the
heavenly, such
are
they also that are heavenly.
49
And as we have borne the image of the earthy,
we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50
Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot
inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51
Behold, I shew you a
mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52
In a moment, in the twinkling of an
eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and
we shall be changed.
53
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal
must
put on
immortality.
54
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have
put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up
in victory.
55
O death, where
is
thy sting? O grave, where
is
thy victory?
56
The sting of death
is
sin; and the strength of sin
is
the law.
57
But thanks
be
to God, which giveth us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ.
58
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmovable, always
