1Corinthians:15:13-57
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But if there be (
5748 )
no resurrection of the dead ,
then is Christ not risen (
5769 ):
*
And if Christ be not risen (
5769 ),
then is our preaching vain ,
and your faith is also vain .
*
Yea ,
and we are found (
5743 )
false witnesses of God ;
because we have testified (
5656 )
of God that he raised up (
5656 )
Christ :
whom he raised not up (
5656 ),
if so be that the dead rise (
5743 )
not .
*
For if the dead rise (
5743 )
not ,
then is not Christ raised (
5769 ):
*
And if Christ be not raised (
5769 ),
your faith is vain ;
ye are (
5748 )
yet in your sins .
*
Then they also which are fallen asleep (
5685 )
in Christ are perished (
5639 ).
*
If in this life only we have hope (
5761 ) (
5748 )
in Christ ,
we are (
5748 )
of all men most miserable .
*
But now is Christ risen (
5769 )
from the dead ,
and become (
5633 )
the firstfruits of them that slept (
5772 ).
*
For since by man came death ,
by man came also the resurrection of the dead .
*
For as in Adam all die (
5719 ),
even so in Christ shall all be made alive (
5701 ).
*
But every man in his own order :
Christ the firstfruits ;
afterward they that are Christs at his coming .
*
Then cometh the end ,
when he shall have delivered up (
5632 )
the kingdom to God ,
even the Father ;
when he shall have put down (
5661 )
all rule and all authority and power .
*
For he must (
5748 )
reign (
5721 ),
till he hath put (
5632 )
all enemies under his feet .
*
The last enemy that shall be destroyed (
5743 )
is death .
*
For he hath put (
5656 )
all things under his feet .
But when he saith (
5632 )
all things are put under (
5769 )
him ,
it is manifest that he is excepted ,
which did put all things under (
5660 )
him .
*
And when all things shall be subdued (
5652 )
unto him ,
then shall the Son also himself be subject (
5691 )
unto him that put all things under (
5660 )
him ,
that God may be (
5753 )
all in all .
*
Else what shall they do (
5692 )
which are baptized (
5746 )
for the dead ,
if the dead rise (
5743 )
not at all ?
why are they then baptized (
5743 )
for the dead ?
*
And why stand we in jeopardy (
5719 )
every hour ?
*
I protest by your rejoicing which I have (
5719 )
in Christ Jesus our Lord ,
I die (
5719 )
daily .
*
If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts (
5656 )
at Ephesus ,
what advantageth it me ,
if the dead rise (
5743 )
not ?
let us eat (
5632 )
and drink (
5632 );
for to morrow we die (
5719 ).
*
Be not deceived (
5744 ):
evil communications corrupt (
5719 )
good manners .
*
Awake (
5657 )
to righteousness ,
and sin (
5720 )
not ;
for some have (
5719 )
not the knowledge of God :
I speak (
5719 )
this to your shame .
*
But some man will say (
5692 ),
How are the dead raised up (
5743 )?
and with what body do they come (
5736 )?
*
Thou fool ,
that which thou sowest (
5719 )
is not quickened (
5743 ),
except it die (
5632 ):
*
And that which thou sowest (
5719 ),
thou sowest (
5719 )
not that body that shall be (
5697 ),
but bare grain ,
it may chance (
5630 )
of wheat ,
or of some other grain :
*
But God giveth (
5719 )
it a body as it hath pleased him (
5656 ),
and to every seed his own body .
*
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 are also celestial bodies ,
and bodies terrestrial :
but the glory of the celestial is one ,
and the glory of the terrestrial is another .
*
There is one glory of the sun ,
and another glory of the moon ,
and another glory of the stars :
for one star differeth from (
5719 )
another star in glory .
*
So also is the resurrection of the dead .
It is sown (
5743 )
in corruption ;
it is raised (
5743 )
in incorruption :
*
It is sown (
5743 )
in dishonour ;
it is raised (
5743 )
in glory :
it is sown (
5743 )
in weakness ;
it is raised (
5743 )
in power :
*
It is sown (
5743 )
a natural body ;
it is raised (
5743 )
a spiritual body .
There is (
5748 )
a natural body ,
and there is (
5748 )
a spiritual body .
*
And so it is written (
5769 ),
The first man Adam was made (
5633 )
a living (
5723 )
soul ;
the last Adam was made a quickening (
5723 )
spirit .
*
Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual ,
but that which is natural ;
and afterward that which is spiritual .
*
The first man is of the earth ,
earthy :
the second man is the Lord from heaven .
*
As is the earthy ,
such are they also that are earthy :
and as is the heavenly ,
such are they also that are heavenly .
*
And as we have borne (
5656 )
the image of the earthy ,
we shall also bear (
5692 )
the image of the heavenly .
*
Now this I say (
5748 ),
brethren ,
that flesh and blood cannot (
5736 )
inherit (
5658 )
the kingdom of God ;
neither doth corruption inherit (
5719 )
incorruption .
*
Behold (
5628 ),
I shew (
5719 )
you a mystery ;
We shall not all sleep (
5701 ),
but we shall all be changed (
5691 ),
*
In a moment ,
in the twinkling of an eye ,
at the last trump :
for the trumpet shall sound (
5692 ),
and the dead shall be raised (
5701 )
incorruptible ,
and we shall be changed (
5691 ).
*
For this corruptible must (
5748 )
put on (
5670 )
incorruption ,
and this mortal must put on (
5670 )
immortality .
*
So when this corruptible shall have put on (
5672 )
incorruption ,
and this mortal shall have put on (
5672 )
immortality ,
then shall be brought to pass (
5695 )
the saying that is written (
5772 ),
Death is swallowed up (
5681 )
in victory .
*
O death ,
where is thy sting ?
O grave ,
where is thy victory ?
*
The sting of death is sin ;
and the strength of sin is the law .
*
But thanks be to God ,
which giveth (
5723 )
us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ .
