1 Corinthians 15:1-28

LITV(i) 1 But, brothers, I reveal to you the gospel which I preached to you, which you also received, in which you also stand, 2 by which you also are being kept safe, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you in the first place what I also received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, 4 and that He was buried, and that He was raised the third day, according to the Scriptures, 5 and that He appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6 Then He appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the most remain until now, but some also fell asleep. 7 Then He was seen by James, then by all the apostles; 8 and last of all, even as if to one born out of time, He was also seen by me. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, who am not sufficient 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 toward me has not been without fruit, but I labored more abundantly than all of them, yet not I, but the grace of God with me. 11 Then whether they or I, so we preach, and so you believed. 12 But if Christ is proclaimed, that He was raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is not a resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there is not a resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised. 14 But if Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation is worthless, and your faith is also worthless. 15 And also we are found to be false witnesses of God, because we witnessed as to God that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if then dead ones are not raised. 16 For if the dead are not raised, Christ has not been raised. 17 But if Christ has not been raised, your faith is foolish; you are still in your sins. 18 And then those that fell asleep in Christ were lost. 19 If we only have hope in Christ in this life, we are of all men most miserable. 20 But now Christ has been raised from the dead; He became the firstfruit of those having fallen asleep. 21 For since death is through man, also through a Man is a resurrection of the dead; 22 for as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in his own order: Christ, the firstfruit, afterward those of Christ at His coming. 24 Then is the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God, even the Father, when He makes to cease all rule and all authority and power. 25 for it is right for Him to reign until He puts all the enemies under His feet; Psa. 110:1 26 the last enemy made to cease is death. 27 For "He subjected all things under His feet;" but when He says that all things have been subjected, it is plain that it excepts Him who has subjected all things to Him. Psa. 8:6 28 But when all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subjected to the One who has subjected all things to Him, that God may be all things in all.
