1 Corinthians 15:29-34 - Resurrection Supported By Christian Experience
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." 33 Do not be so misled: "Evil companionships corrupt good character." 34 Sober up, as is right, and stop sinning, for some of you -- to your shame I say so -- are without any true knowledge of God.
