22. I mean that in Adam all of us die. And in the same way, in Christ all of us will be made alive again.
23. But everyone will be raised to life in the right order. Christ was first to be raised. Then, when Christ comes again, those who belong to him will be raised to life.
24. Then the end will come. Christ will destroy all rulers, authorities, and powers. Then he will give the kingdom to God the Father.
25. Christ must rule until God puts all enemies under his control.
26. The last enemy to be destroyed will be death.
