Listen to 1 Corinthians 15:20-28, Revelation 20:5-6
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.
25For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
26The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
27For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
28And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

The Last Enemy Destroyed
20But now (A)Christ is risen from the dead, and has become (B)the firstfruits of those who have [a]fallen asleep. 21For (C)since by man came death, (D)by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall (E)be made alive. 23But (F)each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ’s at His coming. 24Then comes the end, when He delivers (G)the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power. 25For He must reign (H)till He has put all enemies under His feet. 26(I)The last enemy that will be destroyed is death. 27For (J)“He has put all things under His feet.” But when He says “all things are put under Him,” it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted. 28(K)Now when all things are made subject to Him, then (L)the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.

20But in fact (A)Christ has been raised from the dead, (B)the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21For as (C)by a man came death, (D)by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. 22For (E)as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. 23But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then (F)at his coming (G)those who belong to Christ. 24Then comes the end, when he delivers (H)the kingdom to God the Father after destroying (I)every rule and every authority and power. 25For he must reign (J)until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26The last enemy to be (K)destroyed is death. 27For (L)“God[a] has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him. 28When (M)all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that (N)God may be all in all.

5But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
