1 Corinthians 15

Paul addresses the core belief of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus and the future resurrection of believers. He defends the resurrection using multiple eyewitness accounts. Paul argues that if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ was not raised, our faith is useless, and we are still in our sins. Paul then explains the nature of the resurrection body, contrasting the perishable, earthly body with the glorious, spiritual body. The chapter ends with the triumphant declaration that death is swallowed up in victory.
