Arguments for the Resurrection
1 Corinthians 15:29-34
29
Were it otherwise, what would the people accomplish who are immersed on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not actually raised, why are people immersed for them?
30
For that matter, we ourselves — why do we keep facing danger hour by hour?
31
Brothers, by the right to be proud which the Messiah Yeshua our Lord gives me, I solemnly tell you that I die every day.
32
If my fighting with “wild beasts” in Ephesus was done merely on a human basis, what do I gain by it? If dead people are not raised, we might as well live by the saying, “Let’s eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”
33
Don’t be fooled. “Bad company ruins good character.”
34
Come to your senses! Live righteously and stop sinning! There are some people who lack knowledge of God — I say this to your shame.
