New Living Translation

1 Corinthians 15:7-13 New Living Translation (NLT)

7. Then he was seen by James and later by all the apostles.

8. Last of all, as though I had been born at the wrong time, I also saw him.

9. For I am the least of all the apostles. In fact, I’m not even worthy to be called an apostle after the way I persecuted God’s church.

10. But whatever I am now, it is all because God poured out his special favor on me—and not without results. For I have worked harder than any of the other apostles; yet it was not I but God who was working through me by his grace.

11. So it makes no difference whether I preach or they preach, for we all preach the same message you have already believed.

12. But tell me this—since we preach that Christ rose from the dead, why are some of you saying there will be no resurrection of the dead?

13. For if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised either.
