Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on 1 Corinthians 15:16-21

16For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised.
17And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
18Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
19If our hope in Christ is for this life alone, we are to be pitied more than all men.
20But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
21For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.
— 1 Corinthians 15:16-21
