1. Now I make known unto you brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye received, wherein also ye stand,
2. by which also ye are saved; I make known, I say, in what words I preached it unto you, if ye hold it fast, except ye believed in vain.
3. For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4. and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;
