1 Cor 15:20-24 NIV

20 But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead,

the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21 For

since death came through a man, the resurrection of

the dead comes also through a man. 22 For as in

Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. 23 Buteach in his own turn: Christ, the firstfruits (R0); then,

when he comes (R1), those who belong to him. 24

Then the end will come (R2), when he hands over thekingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all

dominion, authority and power.
