20But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the
firstfruitsof those who have fallen asleep.21For since death came through a man, the resurrection
of the dead comes also through a man.22For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made
alive.23But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he
comes, those who belong to him.24Then the end will come, when he hands over the
kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed alldominion, authority and power.
