3. I told you the most important part of the message exactly as it was told to me. That part is:Christ died for our sins,as the Scriptures say.
4. He was buried,and three days laterhe was raised to life,as the Scriptures say.
5. Christ appeared to Peter,then to the twelve.
6. After this, he appearedto more than five hundredother followers.Most of them are still alive,but some have died.
7. He also appeared to James,and then to allthe apostles.
8. Finally, he appeared to me, even though I am like someone who was born at the wrong time.
9. I am the least important of all the apostles. In fact, I caused so much trouble for God's church that I don't even deserve to be called an apostle.
