Monday in Epiphany

Text not available in the Berean Standard Bible.

20Verse 20. But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21Verse 21. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. 22Verse 22. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. 23Verse 23. But each in his own turn: Christ the firstfruits; then at His coming, those who belong to Him. 24Verse 24. Then the end will come, when He hands over the kingdom to God the Father after He has destroyed all dominion, authority, and power. 25Verse 25. For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. 26Verse 26. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. 27Verse 27. For “God has put everything under His feet.” Now when it says that everything has been put under Him, this clearly does not include the One who put everything under Him. 28Verse 28. And when all things have been subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will be made subject to Him who put all things under Him, so that God may be all in all. 29Verse 29. If these things are not so, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them? 30Verse 30. And why do we endanger ourselves every hour? 31Verse 31. I face death every day, brothers, as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord. 32Verse 32. If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus for human motives, what did I gain? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” 33Verse 33. Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good character.” 34Verse 34. Sober up as you ought, and stop sinning; for some of you are ignorant of God. I say this to your shame.
