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

¹ And, brothers, I make known to you the good-news that I preached to you, which also ye received, and in which ye stand, ² by which also ye are saved if ye hold firm that word I preached to you, unless ye believed in vain. ³ For I delivered to you at first what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, ⁴ and that he was buried, and that he arose on the third day according to the scriptures, ⁵ and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. ⁶ Then he appeared to over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some also slept. ⁷ Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, ⁸ and last of all, as to the untimely birth, he also appeared to me.

⁹ For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy 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 for me did not become empty, but I labored more abundantly than them all, yet not I, but the grace of God with me. ¹¹ Therefore whether I or those men, so we proclaim, and so ye believed.
