1. Brothers and sisters, I want to remind you of the good news I preached to you. You received it and have put your faith in it.
2. Because you believed the good news, you are saved. But you must hold firmly to the message I preached to you. If you don't, you have believed it for nothing.
3. What I received I passed on to you. And it is the most important of all. Here is what it is. Christ died for our sins, just as Scripture said he would.
4. He was buried. He was raised from the dead on the third day, just as Scripture said he would be.
5. He appeared to Peter. Then he appeared to the Twelve.
6. After that, he appeared to more than 500 believers at the same time. Most of them are still living. But some have died.
7. He appeared to James. Then he appeared to all the apostles.
8. Last of all, he also appeared to me. I was like someone who wasn't born at the right time or in a normal way.
