15:24 Then comes the
end,
when he
hands over the
kingdom to
God the
Father,
when he has
brought to an end 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 to be
eliminated is
death.
27 For he has put everything in subjection under his feet.
But when it
says “
everything” has been
put in subjection, it is
clear that this does
not include the one who
put everything in subjection to
him.
28 And when all things are
subjected to
him,
then the Son himself will be
subjected to
the one who
subjected everything 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, then why are they baptized for them? 30 Why too are we in danger every hour? 31 Every day I am in danger of death! This is as sure as my boasting in you, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32 If from a human point of view I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what did it benefit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.
