1 Corinthians 15

¹ Brothers and sisters, I need to remind you about the Good News I told you. You grabbed it with both hands. You are standing on it right now.

¹² We preach that Christ came back from the dead. So how can some of you say that dead people do not come back to life?

²⁰ But here is the truth! Christ really did come back from the dead! He is the first piece of fruit picked from the tree. He is the first one to come back to life. He shows us what will happen to everyone else who died.

²¹ Death came into the world because of one man. Coming back from the dead comes the same way, through one man.

²⁴ After that, the end comes! He will hand the Kingdom over to God the Father. But first He has to crush every ruler, every power, and every dark force standing against Him.
