21 Just as we will die because of Adam, we will be raised to life because of Christ.
22 Adam brought death to all of us, and Christ will bring life to all of us.
23 But we must each wait our turn. Christ was the first to be raised to life, and his people will be raised to life when he returns.
24 Then after Christ has destroyed all powers and forces, the end will come, and he will give the kingdom to God the Father.
25 Christ will rule until he puts all his enemies under his power,
26 and the last enemy he destroys will be death.
27 When the Scriptures say that he will put everything under his power, they don't include God. It was God who put everything under the power of Christ.
