I WANT TO REMIND YOU OF THE GOSPEL I PREACHED TO YOU,

First Corinthians 15:1-11

— which you have received and

— on which you have taken your stand.

— By this Gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you.

(Otherwise you have believed in vain.)

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance:

A. that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

B. that he was buried,

C. that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and

D. that he appeared

1. to Peter and then

2. to the twelve

3. to more than 500

4. to James

5. to all the apostles

6. to me also

End:

Whether, then,

it was I  / they,

1. this is what we preach, and

2. this is what you believed.
