1 Corinthians 15:27-29
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
27 for “He[a] subjected all things under His[b] feet” [Ps 8:6]. But when He says[c] that “All things have been subjected”, it is clear that this is except the One[d] having subjected all things to Him. 28 But when all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One[e] having subjected all things to Him, in order that God may be all things in all.
Otherwise, Why Be Concerned About The Dead Or Risk Our Lives?
29 Otherwise[f], what will the ones being baptized for[g] the dead do? If dead ones are not raised at-all, why indeed are they baptized for them?

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?
