1 Brothers and sisters, I want to call your attention to the good news that I preached to you, which you also received and in which you stand.
2 You are being saved through it if you hold on to the message I preached to you, unless somehow you believed it for nothing.
3 I passed on to you as most important what I also received: Christ died for our sins in line with the scriptures,
4 he was buried, and he rose on the third day in line with the scriptures.
5 He appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve,
6 and then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers and sisters at once—most of them are still alive to this day, though some have died.
