Jesus

After the same maner also he tooke the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the Newe Testament in my blood: this doe as oft as ye drinke it, in remembrance of me.

For as often as ye shall eate this bread, and drinke this cup, ye shewe the Lords death till hee come.

Wherefore, whosoeuer shall eate this bread, and drinke the cup of the Lord vnworthily, shall be guiltie of the body and blood of the Lord.

But when we are iudged, we are chastened of the Lord, because we should not be condemned with the world.

Wherefore, I declare vnto you, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Iesus execrable: also no man can say that Iesus is the Lord, but by the holy Ghost.

And there are diuersities of administrations, but the same Lord,

And all these thinges worketh one and the selfe same Spirit, distributing to euery man seuerally as he will.

For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, which is one, though they be many, yet are but one body: euen so is Christ.

Now ye are the body of Christ, and members for your part.

In the Lawe it is written, By men of other tongues, and by other languages will I speake vnto this people: yet so shall they not heare me, sayth the Lord.

If any man thinke him selfe to be a Prophet, or spirituall, let him acknowledge, that the things, that I write vnto you, are the commandements of the Lord.

For first of all, I deliuered vnto you that which I receiued, how that Christ died for our sinnes, according to the Scriptures,

And that he was buried, and that he arose the third day, according to the Scriptures,

And that he was seene of Cephas, then of the twelue.

After that, he was seene of more then fiue hudreth brethren at once: whereof many remaine vnto this present, and some also are asleepe.

After that, he was seene of Iames: then of all the Apostles.

And last of all he was seene also of me, as of one borne out of due time.

Now if it be preached, that Christ is risen from the dead, how say some among you, that there is no resurrection of the dead?

For if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vaine, and your faith is also vaine.

And we are found also false witnesses of God: for we haue testified of God, that he hath raised vp Christ: whome he hath not raised vp, if so be the dead be not raised.

For if the dead be not raised, then is Christ not raised.

And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vaine: ye are yet in your sinnes.

And so they which are a sleepe in Christ, are perished.

If in this life onely wee haue hope in Christ, we are of all men the most miserable.
