Bible verses about "resurrection" | Williams

¹ When the Sabbath had ended, Mary of Magdala, Mary, James's mother, and Salome bought spices to go and anoint Him. ² It was very early, just after the sun had risen, on the first day of the week, when they went to the tomb. ³ And they kept saying to one another, "Who will roll the boulder back from the doorway of the tomb for us?" ⁴ Then they looked up and saw that the boulder had already been rolled to one side, for it was a very large one. ⁵ And when they went into the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting at the right; and they were utterly astounded. ⁶ But he said to them, "You must not be so astounded; you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth who was crucified. He has risen; He is not here. See! Here is the spot where they laid Him. ⁷ But you go and tell His disciples and Peter, 'He is going back to Galilee to meet you; you will see Him there, just as He told you.'"

¹⁴ Then you will be happy, because they cannot repay you; you will be repaid at the resurrection of the upright."

¹⁹ In just a little while the world will not see me any more, but you will be seeing me. Because I am to live on, you too will live on.

²⁵ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life myself. Whoever continues to believe in me will live right on even though he dies, ²⁶ and no person who continues to live and believe in me will ever die at all. Do you believe this?"

¹² Now if we preach that Christ has been raised from the dead, how is it that some of you are saying that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead? ¹³ If there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised, ¹⁴ and if Christ was not raised, the message which we preach has nothing in it; there is nothing in our faith either, ¹⁵ and we are found guilty of lying about God, for we have testified that He raised Christ, whom He did not raise, if indeed the dead are never raised. ¹⁶ For if the dead are never raised, Christ has not been raised; ¹⁷ and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is a mere delusion; you are still under the penalty of your sins. ¹⁸ Yes, even those who have fallen asleep, though in union with Christ, have perished. ¹⁹ If for this life only we Christians have set our hopes on Christ, we are the most pitiable people in the world. ²⁰ But in reality Christ has been raised from the dead, the first to be raised of those who have fallen asleep. ²¹ For since it was through a man that death resulted, it was also through a man that the resurrection of the dead resulted. ²² For just as all men die by virtue of their descent from Adam, so all such as are in union with Christ will be made to live again. ²³ But each in his proper order; Christ first, then at His coming those who belong to Christ. ²⁴ After that comes the end, when He will turn the kingdom over to God His Father, when He will put an end to all other government, authority, and power; ²⁵ for He must continue to be king until He puts all His enemies under His feet. ²⁶ Death is the last enemy to be stopped, ²⁷ for He has put everything in subjection under His feet. But when He says that everything has been put in subjection to Him, He Himself is evidently excepted who put it all in subjection to Him. ²⁸ And when everything has been put in subjection to Him, then the Son Himself will also become subject to Him who has put everything in subjection to Him, so that God may be everything to everybody. ²⁹ Otherwise, what do those people mean who submit to being baptized on behalf of their dead? If the dead are never raised at all, why do they submit to being baptized on their behalf? ³⁰ Why too do we ourselves run such risks every hour? ³¹ I protest, by the boasting which I do about you, my brothers, through our union with Christ Jesus our Lord, I myself run the risk of dying every single day! ³² If from merely human motives I have fought wild beasts here in Ephesus, what profit will it be to me? If the dead are never raised at all, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall be dead."

¹⁶ For the Lord Himself, at the summons sounded by the archangel's call and by God's trumpet, will come down from heaven, and first of all the dead in union with Christ will rise,

¹⁴ And as God by His power raised the Lord to life, so He will raise us too.

⁴ So through baptism we have been buried with Him in death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father's glorious power, so we too should live an entirely new life.

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In accordance with His great mercy He has begotten us anew to an ever living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead;

⁴⁰ For it is my Father's will that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and that I shall raise him to life on the last day."

¹¹ If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead has His home within you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give your mortal bodies life through His Spirit that has His home within you.

¹⁴ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, then through Jesus, God will bring back with Him those who have fallen asleep.

²⁵ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life myself. Whoever continues to believe in me will live right on even though he dies,
