1 Corinthians 15:16 WBT

¹⁴  And if Christ is not raised, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain.

¹⁵  And indeed we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified concerning God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not, if in truth the dead rise not.

¹⁶  For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

¹⁷  And if Christ is not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins.

¹⁸  Then they also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
