RESURRECTION ESSENTIAL TO THE GOSPEL

15 Now I want to make clear for you, brothers and sisters, the gospel I preached to you, which you received, on which you have taken your standd 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold to the message I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.e 3 For I passed on to youf as most important what I also received: that Christ diedg for our sins according to the Scriptures,h 4 that he was buried,i that he was raised on the third dayj according to the Scriptures,k 5 and that he appeared to Cephas,l then to the Twelve.m
