For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised.

For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead also came through a man.

Now if Christ is being preached as raised from the dead, how can some of you say there is no resurrection of the dead?

Otherwise, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, then why are they baptized for them?

But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.

But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

But someone will say, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”

It is the same with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable.

If from a human point of view I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what did it benefit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.

in a moment, in the blinking of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

Also, we are found to be false witnesses about God, because we have testified against God that he raised Christ from the dead, when in reality he did not raise him, if indeed the dead are not raised.
