Bible verse
If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
1 Corinthians 15:13 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Corinthians 15.
9 For I am the least of the apostles and am unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to me was not in vain. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.
11 Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.
12 But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13 If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
14 And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is worthless, and so is your faith.
15 In that case, we are also exposed as false witnesses about God. For we have testified about God that He raised Christ from the dead, but He did not raise Him if in fact the dead are not raised.
16 For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised.
17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
