strkjv@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 ;
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@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 ;
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ And that he was buried , and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures :
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:5 @ And that he was seen of Cephas , then of the twelve :
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:7 @ After that , he was seen of James ; then of all the apostles .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ And last of all he was seen of me also , as of one born out of due time .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Therefore whether it were I or they , so we preach , and so ye believed .
strkjv@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 ?
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there be no resurrection of the dead , then is Christ not risen :
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ And if Christ be not risen , then is our preaching vain , and your faith is also vain .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead rise not , then is not Christ raised :
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ And if Christ be not raised , your faith is vain ; ye are yet in your sins .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:18 @ Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this life only we have hope in Christ , we are of all men most miserable .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now is Christ risen from the dead , and become the firstfruits of them that slept .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since by man came death , by man came also the resurrection of the dead .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For as in Adam all die , even so in Christ shall all be made alive .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But every man in his own order : Christ the firstfruits ; afterward they that are Christs at his coming .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:25 @ For he must reign , till he hath put all enemies under his feet .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:26 @ The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@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 ?
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:30 @ And why stand we in jeopardy every hour ?
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:31 @ I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord , I die daily .
strkjv@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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Be not deceived : evil communications corrupt good manners .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awake to righteousness , and sin not ; for some have not the knowledge of God : I speak this to your shame .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some man will say , How are the dead raised up ? and with what body do they come ?
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ Thou fool , that which thou sowest is not quickened , except it die :
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ 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:
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him , and to every seed his own body .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ 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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are also celestial bodies , and bodies terrestrial : but the glory of the celestial is one , and the glory of the terrestrial is another .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ 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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead . It is sown in corruption ; it is raised in incorruption :
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonour ; it is raised in glory : it is sown in weakness ; it is raised in power :
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown a natural body ; it is raised a spiritual body . There is a natural body , and there is a spiritual body .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written , The first man Adam was made a living soul ; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:46 @ Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual , but that which is natural ; and afterward that which is spiritual .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man is of the earth , earthy : the second man is the Lord from heaven .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:48 @ As is the earthy , such are they also that are earthy : and as is the heavenly , such are they also that are heavenly .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:49 @ And as we have borne the image of the earthy , we shall also bear the image of the heavenly .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now this I say , brethren , that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God ; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Behold , I shew you a mystery ; We shall not all sleep , but we shall all be changed ,
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ 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 .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this corruptible must put on incorruption , and this mortal must put on immortality .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption , and this mortal shall have put on immortality , then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written , Death is swallowed up in victory .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:55 @ O death , where is thy sting ? O grave , where is thy victory ?
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:56 @ The sting of death is sin ; and the strength of sin is the law .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God , which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ .
strkjv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore , my beloved brethren , be ye stedfast , unmoveable , always abounding in the work of the Lord , forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord .

bible 1Corinthians:15 -
kjv@1Corinthians:15:1-32 > > RandyP : 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.
kjv@1Corinthians:15:33-58 > > RandyP : It is asked by many "how could it be that God is righteous when He allows this and that and there is such pain and obvious corruption"? A mystery is revealed here about how this corrupt life that God has planted in becomes righteous, what is incorruptible must be born out of what is corruptible much like a seed of grain. We tend to look at this life as if this were all that there is and not see the eternal purposes for which God has set our paths on. This explains much about God's patience and love and forgiveness even when considering the events/actions of the day as they appear to our simple minds.
kjv@Ecclesiastes:1 > > RandyP : Just days ago we had read kjv@1Corinthians:15 that the righteousness of God in putting us through this corruption was to break us down, have us die to ourselves that we might germinate to a spiritual plant/being (be born again). Here it says similarly the travail God has given the sons of men to be exercised with. From the observation from heaven it is a unnecessary and righteous thing and from our sense it is a grievous and sorrowful thing. This is because of the weight with which we invest ourselves into making something carnal out of this present corruption. We do not see the things under heaven as they were before nor the things as they will be. All is vanity, but, God submitted us to this vanity because of a much greater righteous hope kjv@Romans:8:20-23 .
