1 Corinthians - ch 15 v 1 - 20

  1. Now I make known unto you brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye received, wherein also ye stand,
  2. by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.
  3. For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
  4. and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;
  5. and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve;
  6. then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep;
  7. then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;
  8. and last of all, as to the `child' untimely born, he appeared to me also.
  9. For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
  10. But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not found vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
  11. Whether then `it be' I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
  12. Now if Christ is preached that he hath been raised from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
  13. But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised:
  14. and if Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain.
  15. Yea, we are found false witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead are not raised.
  16. For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised:
  17. and if Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
  18. Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
  19. If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
  20. But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
