¹³ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised; ¹⁴ and ^(A)if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain, your faith also is in vain. ¹⁵ Moreover, we are even found to be false witnesses of God, because we testified ^[a]against God that He ^(B)raised ^[b]Christ, whom He did not raise, if in fact the dead are not raised. ¹⁶ For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised; ¹⁷ and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; ^(C)you are still in your sins. ¹⁸ Then also those who ^(D)have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. ¹⁹ If we have hoped in Christ only in this life, we are ^(E)of all people most to be pitied.
