15:20-24
Amplified Bible (AMP)20 But the fact is that Christ (the Messiah) has been raised from the dead, and He became the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep [in death].21 For since [it was] through a man that death [came into the world, it is] also through a Man that the resurrection of the dead [has come].22 For just as [because of their [a
]
union of nature] in Adam all people die, so also [by virtue of their
[
b]union of nature] shall all in Christ be made alive.23 But each in his own rank and turn: Christ (the Messiah) [is] the firstfruits, then those who are Christ’s [own will be resurrected] at His coming.

and
abolishing every [other] rule and every authority and power.
A promise to the body of Christ
Slide42Colossians 2:16-17
