1 Corinthians 15:5-11

Christ Is Risen, the Dead Will Be Raised, and Death Will Be Destroyed

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

5and that He appeared to Cephas and then to the Twelve.

6After that, He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.

7Then He appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

8And last of all He appeared to me also, as to one of untimely birth.

9For I am the least of the apostles and am unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

10But 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.

11Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed.
