86.1 Christ Surely Rose From The Dead

(1 Corinthians 15:1-8)

And now I want to remind you, my brothers, of the Good News which I preached to you, which you received, and on which your faith stands firm. That is the gospel, the message that I preached to you. You are saved by the gospel if you hold firmly to it -- unless it was for nothing that you believed.

I passed on the you what I received, which is of the greatest importance, that Christ died for our sins, as written in the Scriptures; that he was buried and that he was raised to life three days later, as written in the Scriptures; that he appeared to Peter and then to all twelve apostles. Then he appeared to more than five hundred of his followers at once, most of who are still alive, although some have died. Then he appeared to James, and afterward to all the apostles.

Last of all he appeared  also to me - even though I am like someone whose birth was abnormal.
