King James Version

What does 1 Corinthians 15:22 mean? β†’

Passage Context

20But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
23But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.

Devotional Reflection

LoveJoyPeaceGratitudeHopeAwe

Having no end is not a new idea. It will be new for all time to be exactly like Jesus. But when Jesus woke up from His death sleep and the moment of glory was on the line, we were also given the promise that death no longer has us. The only death that matters is the death we have to sin when we are baptized with Jesus. If we were there when He died, we'll be there when He comes back to life (see Romans 6:1-14).

Prayer

God, the All-Powerful, Almighty, I know I will see You face to face because of Your grace and the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. But now, please help me to live that resurrected life by modeling myself more closely on Jesus than ever before. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
