1 Corinthians 15:27-29
Contemporary English Version
1 Corinthians 15:27-29
Contemporary English Version
27 (A) When the Scriptures say he will put everything under his power, they don't include God. It was God who put everything under the power of Christ. 28 After everything is under the power of God's Son, he will put himself under the power of God, who put everything under his Son's power. Then God will mean everything to everyone.
29 (B) If the dead are not going to be raised to life, what will people do who are being baptized for them? Why are they being baptized for those dead people?

1 Corinthians 15:27-29
New International Version
27 For he “has put everything under his feet.”[a](A) Now when it says that “everything” has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.(B) 28 When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him,(C) so that God may be all in all.(D)
29 Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?
