15. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God: because we have given testimony against God, that he hath raised up Christ; whom he hath not raised up, if the dead rise not again.
16. For if the dead rise not again, neither is Christ risen again.
17. And if Christ be not risen again, your faith is vain, for you are yet in your sins.
18. Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ, are perished.
19. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
