1 Corinthians 15:3-11

3For I also passed on to you first of all what I also received— that Messiah died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

4that He was buried, that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,

5and that He appeared to Kefa, then to the Twelve.

6Then He appeared to over five hundred brothers and sisters at one time— most of them are still alive, though some have died.

7Then He appeared to Jacob, then to all the emissaries,

8and last of all, as to one untimely born, He also appeared to me.

9For I am the least of the emissaries, unworthy to be called an emissary because I persecuted God’s community.

10But by the grace of God I am what I am. His grace toward me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than them all—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.

11Whether then it is I or they, so we proclaim, and so you believed.
