30 And what about us? Why do we put ourselves in danger every hour?
31 I face death every day. That is true, brothers and sisters, just as it is true that I am proud of what you are because of Christ Jesus our Lord.
32 I fought wild animals in Ephesus. If I did that only for human reasons, then I have gained nothing. If we are not raised from death, “Let us eat and drink, because tomorrow we die.”
33 Don’t be fooled: “Bad friends will ruin good habits.”
34 Come back to your right way of thinking and stop sinning. Some of you don’t know God. I say this to shame you.
35 But someone may ask, “How are the dead raised? What kind of body will they have?”
36 These are stupid questions. When you plant something, it must die in the ground before it can live and grow.
