1 Corinthians 15:18

Furthermore, those who have fallen asleep ¹  in Christ have also perished.

Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost.

Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

In that case, all who have died believing in Christ have perished!

It's even worse for those who died hoping in Christ and resurrection, because they're already in their graves.

And, in addition, the dead in Christ have gone to destruction.

Then those also who have died in Christ have perished.

Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

Furthermore, those who have fallen asleep ¹  in Christ have also perished.

¹ tn See the note on the word “asleep” in 15:6. This term is also used in v. 20.
