Compare: 1 Corinthians 15

ASV

Now I make known unto you brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye received, wherein also ye stand,

ASV

by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.

ASV

For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

ASV

and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;

ASV

and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve;

ASV

then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep;

ASV

then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;

ASV

and last of all, as to the [child] untimely born, he appeared to me also.

ASV

For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

ASV

But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not found vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

ASV

Whether then [it be] I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.

ASV

Now if Christ is preached that he hath been raised from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

ASV

But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised:

ASV

and if Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain.

ASV

Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead are not raised.

ASV

For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised:

ASV

and if Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

ASV

Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

ASV

If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.

ASV

But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.

ASV

For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.

ASV

For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.

ASV

But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ’s, at his coming.

ASV

Then [cometh] the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power.

ASV

For he must reign, till he hath put all his enemies under his feet.

ASV

The last enemy that shall be abolished is death.

ASV

For, He put all things in subjection under his feet. But when he saith, All things are put in subjection, it is evident that he is excepted who did subject all things unto him.

ASV

And when all things have been subjected unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did subject all things unto him, that God may be all in all.

ASV

Else what shall they do that are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?

ASV

why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?

ASV

I protest by that glorying in you, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

ASV

If after the manner of men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.

ASV

Be not deceived: Evil companionships corrupt good morals.

ASV

Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak [this] to move you to shame.

ASV

But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?

ASV

Thou foolish one, that which thou thyself sowest is not quickened except it die:

ASV

and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other kind;

ASV

but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.

ASV

All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one [flesh] of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.

ASV

There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial is another.

ASV

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.

ASV

So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

ASV

it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

ASV

it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual [body].

ASV

So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.

ASV

Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.

ASV

The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.

ASV

As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.

ASV

And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

ASV

Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

ASV

Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,

ASV

in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

ASV

For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

ASV

But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

ASV

O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?

ASV

The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:

ASV

but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

ASV

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord.
