kjv@1Corinthians:15:1@ Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
kjv@1Corinthians:15:2@ By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:3@ For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
kjv@1Corinthians:15:4@ And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
kjv@1Corinthians:15:6@ After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:8@ And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:9@ For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:10@ But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:11@ Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:12@ Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
kjv@1Corinthians:15:13@ But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:
kjv@1Corinthians:15:14@ And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:15@ 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.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:19@ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:20@ But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:21@ For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:22@ For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:23@ But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:24@ Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:27@ 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.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:28@ And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:29@ 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?
kjv@1Corinthians:15:31@ I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:32@ If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die.
Without any doubt the central core of the Gospel is that Christ died for our sins according to scriptures, buried and raised the third day according to scriptures, witnessed by many and ascended to where all things have been put under subjection to Him and He to the Father. It is not just that He did it, it is that the scriptures all along said that He was going to do it. Of this core in particular the resurrection can not be separated without voiding the remainder.
