15Yes, and we are seen to be false witnesses of God; because we gave witness of God that by his power Christ came again from the dead: which is not true if there is no coming back from the dead.
16For if it is not possible for the dead to come to life again, then Christ has not come to life again:
17And if that is so, your faith is of no effect; you are still in your sins.
18And, in addition, the dead in Christ have gone to destruction.
19If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most unhappy.
20But now Christ has truly come back from the dead, the first-fruits of those who are sleeping.
21For as by man came death, so by man there is a coming back from the dead.
