1 Corinthians 15:11-20

Godbey(i) 11 Then whether I or they, so we preach, and so you believed. 12 But if Christ is preached that he is risen from the dead, how do certain ones among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 but if there is no resurrection of the dead, Christ is not risen: 14 but if Christ is not risen, then indeed is our preaching vain, and your faith is vain. 15 And we are indeed found false witnesses of God; because we testified according to God that he raised Christ: whom he did not raise, if then the dead rise not. 16 But if the dead rise not, neither is Christ risen. 17 But if Christ is not risen, your faith is vain; you are yet in your sins. 18 Then indeed those having fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable. 20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, the firstfruit of them that slept.
