1 Corinthians 15:1-11 - Paul's Gospel And The Resurrection Of Christ
1 But I make known to you, brethren, the gospel that I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, 2 by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you among the first things, that which I also received: That Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was buried; and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures; 5 and that he was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve; 6 after that, he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain till this day; but some have fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen by James, then by all the apostles. 8 Last of all, he was seen by me also, as one untimely born.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, and I 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, which was bestowed on me, has not been bestowed in vain: but I have labored more abundantly than they all; not I, how ever, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Whether, therefore, I or they, so we preached, and so you believed.
