World Messianic Bible British Edition

1 Corinthians 15:10-24 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

10. But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace which was given to me was not futile, but I worked more than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

11. Whether then it is I or they, so we proclaim, and so you believed.

12. Now if Messiah is preached, that he has been raised from the dead, how do some amongst you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

13. But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Messiah been raised.

14. If Messiah has not been raised, then our proclaiming is in vain, and your faith also is in vain.

15. Yes, we are also found false witnesses of God, because we testified about God that he raised up Messiah, whom he didn’t raise up, if it is so that the dead are not raised.

16. For if the dead aren’t raised, neither has Messiah been raised.

17. If Messiah has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins.

18. Then they also who are fallen asleep in Messiah have perished.

19. If we have only hoped in Messiah in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.

20. But now Messiah has been raised from the dead. He became the first fruits of those who are asleep.

21. For since death came by man, the resurrection of the dead also came by man.

22. For as in Adam all die, so also in Messiah all will be made alive.

23. But each in his own order: Messiah the first fruits, then those who are Messiah’s, at his coming.

24. Then the end comes, when he will deliver up the Kingdom to God, even the Father; when he will have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
