1 Korintus 15:16-18

15:16 For if the dead are not raised, then not even Christ has been raised. 15:17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is useless; you are still in your sins. 15:18 Furthermore, those who have fallen asleep ¹  in Christ have also perished.

[15:18]  ¹ tn See the note on the word “asleep” in 15:6. This term is also used in v. 20.
