1 Corinthians 15:13-19

13But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised; 14and 1if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain, your faith also is in vain. 15Moreover, we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified 2against God that He 3raised 4Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised. 16For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised; 17and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; 5you are still in your sins. 18Then also those who 6have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19If we have hoped in Christ only in this life, we are 7of all people most to be pitied.
