I Corinthians 15:38

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.
And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?
I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.

CHAPTER 15.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
