25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death,
27 for “he subjected everything under his feet.” But when it says that everything has been subjected, it is clear that it excludes the one who subjected everything to him.
28 When everything is subjected to him, then the Son himself will [also] be subjected to the one who subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.
29 Otherwise, what will people accomplish by having themselves baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, then why are they having themselves baptized for them?
30 Moreover, why are we endangering ourselves all the time?
31 Every day I face death; I swear it by the pride in you [brothers] that I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.
