1 Corinthians 15:12-20 If we preached that Christ was raised from the dead, how can some among you say there is no resurrection of the dead?

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² If we preached that Christ was raised from the dead, how can some among you say there is no resurrection of the dead? ¹³ If there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not risen. ¹⁴ And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is worth nothing, and your faith is also without value. ¹⁵ We are found to be false witnesses of God because we have testified that God raised Christ from the dead. If he did not raise him up from the dead then the dead are not raised up. ¹⁶ For if the dead are not raised up then Christ has not been raised. ¹⁷ And if Christ is not resurrected, your faith is worth nothing, and you are still in your sins. ¹⁸ Then they also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. ¹⁹ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable (pitiable). ²⁰ Christ has risen from the dead, and has become the first fruits of those who slept [in death].
