1 Corinthians 15:1-11 - Paul's Gospel And The Resurrection Of Christ

¹ Now I am going to make clear to you, my brothers, what the good news was which I gave to you, and which you took, and on which your faith is based, ² By which you have salvation; that is to say, the form in which it was given to you, if it is fixed in your minds, and if your faith in it is not without effect. ³ For I gave to you first of all what was handed down to me, how Christ underwent death for our sins, as it says in the Writings; ⁴ And he was put in the place of the dead; and on the third day he came back from the dead, as it says in the Writings; ⁵ And he was seen by Cephas; then by the twelve; ⁶ Then by more than five hundred brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, but some are sleeping; ⁷ Then he was seen by James; then by all the Apostles. ⁸ And last of all, as by one whose birth was out of the right time, he was seen by me.

⁹ For I am the least of the Apostles, having no right to be named an Apostle, because of my cruel attacks on the church of God. ¹⁰ But by the grace of God, I am what I am: and his grace which was given to me has not been for nothing; for I did more work than all of them; though not I, but the grace of God which was with me. ¹¹ If then it is I who am the preacher, or they, this is our word, and to this you have given your faith.
