Resurrection Essential to the Gospel

15 Now brothers, I want to clarify[a] for you the gospel I proclaimed to you; you received it and have taken your stand(A) on it. You are also saved by it, if you hold to the message I proclaimed to you—unless you believed for no purpose.[b](B) For I passed on to you(C) as most important what I also received:

that Christ died(D) for our sins
according to the Scriptures,(E)
that He was buried,(F)
that He was raised on the third day(G)
according to the Scriptures,(H)
and that He appeared to Cephas,(I)
then to the Twelve.(J)
Then He appeared to over 500 brothers at one time;(K)
most of them are still alive,
but some have fallen asleep.
Then He appeared to James,(L)
then to all the apostles.(M)
Last of all, as to one abnormally born,[c](N)
He also appeared to me.(O)

For I am the least of the apostles,(P) unworthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted(Q) the church of God.
