¹² The Resurrection of the DeadNow if we preach that the Messiah has been raised from the dead, how can some of you keep claiming there is no resurrection of the dead? ¹³ If there is no resurrection of the dead, then the Messiah has not been raised, ¹⁴ and if the Messiah has not been raised, then our message means nothing and your faith means nothing. ¹⁵ In addition, we are found to be false witnesses about God because we testified on God’s behalf that he raised the Messiah—whom he did not raise if in fact it is true that the dead are not raised. ¹⁶ For if the dead are not raised, then the Messiah has not been raised, ¹⁷ and if the Messiah has not been raised, your faith is worthless and you are still imprisoned by your sins. ¹⁸ Yes, even those who have died believing in the Messiah are lost. ¹⁹ If we have set our hopes on the Messiah in this life only, we deserve more pity than any other people.
²⁰ But at this moment the Messiah stands risen from the dead, the first one offered in the harvest of those who have died. ²¹ For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead also came through a man. ²² For as in Adam all die, so also in the Messiah will all be made alive. ²³ However, this will happen to each person in the proper order: first the Messiah, then those who belong to the Messiah when he comes. ²⁴ Then the end will come, when after he has done away with every ruler and every authority and power, the Messiah hands over the kingdom to God the Father. ²⁵ For he must rule until God puts all the Messiah’s enemies under his feet. ²⁶ The last enemy to be done away with is death, ²⁷ for “God has put everything under his feet.” Now when he says, “Everything has been put under him,” this clearly excludes the one who put everything under him.

²¹ He will change our unassuming bodies and make them like his glorious body through the power that enables him to bring everything under his authority.

¹⁴ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so through Jesus God will bring those who have died with him. ¹⁵ For we declare to you what the Lord has told us to say: We who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who have died. ¹⁶ With a shout of command, with the archangel’s call, and with the sound of God’s trumpet, the Lord himself will come down from heaven, and the dead who belong to the Messiah will rise first.

⁶ How blessed and holy are those who participate in the first resurrection! The second death has no power over them. They will be priests of God and the Messiah, and will rule with him for a thousand years.

The dead were judged according to their actions, as recorded in the books. ¹³ The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and all were judged according to their actions.
