(And when he saith that all things are subdued to him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put downe all things vnder him.) 28And when all things shalbe subdued vnto him, then shall the Sonne also himselfe be subiect vnto him, that did subdue all things vnder him, that God may be all in all. 29Els what shall they doe which are baptized for dead? if the dead rise not at all, why are they then baptized for dead? 30Why are wee also in ieopardie euery houre? 31By your reioycing which I haue in Christ Iesus our Lord, I die dayly. 32If I haue fought with beastes at Ephesus after ye maner of men, what aduantageth it me, if the dead be not raised vp? let vs eate and drinke: for to morowe we shall die. 33Be not deceiued: euill speakings corrupt good maners. 34Awake to liue righteously, and sinne not: for some haue not ye knowledge of God, I speake this to your shame. 35But some man will say, Howe are the dead raised vp? and with what body come they foorth? 36O foole, that which thou sowest, is not quickened, except it die. 37And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shalbe, but bare corne as it falleth, of wheat, or of some other. 38But God giueth it a body at his pleasure, euen to euery seede his owne body, 39All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beastes, and another of fishes, and another of birdes. 40There are also heauenly bodies, and earthly bodies: but the glorie of the heauenly is one, and the glorie of the earthly is another. 41There is another glorie of the sunne, and another glorie of the moone, and another glorie of the starres: for one starre differeth from another starre in glorie. 42So also is the resurrection of the dead. The bodie is sowen in corruption, and is raysed in incorruption. 43It is sowen in dishonour, and is raysed in glory: it is sowen in weakenesse, and is raysed in power. 44It is sowen a naturall body, and is raysed a spirituall body: there is a naturall body, and there is a spirituall body. 45As it is also written, The first man Adam was made a liuing soule: and the last Adam was made a quickening Spirit. 46Howbeit that was not first which is spirituall: but that which is naturall, and afterward that which is spirituall. 47The first man is of the earth, earthly: the second man is the Lord from heauen. 48As is the earthly, such are they that are earthly: and as is the heauenly, such are they also that are heauenly. 49And as we haue borne the image of the earthly, so shall we beare the image of the heauenly. 50This say I, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherite the kingdome of God, neither doeth corruption inherite incorruption. 51Behold, I shewe you a secret thing, We shall not all sleepe, but we shall all be changed, 52In a moment, in the twinckling of an eye at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall blow, and the dead shalbe raysed vp incorruptible, and we shalbe changed. 53For this corruptible must put on incorruption: and this mortall must put on immortalitie. 54So when this corruptible hath put on incorruption, and this mortall hath put on immortalitie, then shalbe brought to passe the saying that is written, Death is swallowed vp into victorie. 55O death where is thy sting? O graue where is thy victorie? 56The sting of death is sinne: and ye strength of sinne is the Lawe. 57But thankes be vnto God, which hath giuen vs victorie through our Lord Iesus Christ. 58Therefore my beloued brethren, be ye stedfast, vnmoueable, aboundant alwayes in the worke of the Lord, forasmuch as ye knowe that your labour is not in vaine in the Lord. ‹Previous chapter1 Corinthians 14Next chapter1 Corinthians 16›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.Versions1 Corinthians 15 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
