2
They were greatly disturbed because the apostles were teaching the people, proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection of the dead.
10
then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.
33
With great power the apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all
30
The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead—whom you killed by hanging him on a cross.
40
but God raised him from the dead on the third day and caused him to be seen.
41
He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
34
God raised him from the dead so that he will never be subject to decay. As God has said, “ ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’
35
So it is also stated elsewhere: “ ‘You will not let your holy one see decay.’
36
“Now when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was buried with his ancestors and his body decayed.
37
But the one whom God raised from the dead did not see decay.
18
A group of Epicurean and Stoic philosophers began to debate with him. Some of them asked, “What is this babbler trying to say?” Others remarked, “He seems to be advocating foreign gods.” They said this because Paul was preaching the good news about Jesus and the resurrection.
31
For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.”
6
Then Paul, knowing that some of them were Sadducees and the others Pharisees, called out in the Sanhedrin, “My brothers, I am a Pharisee, descended from Pharisees. I stand on trial because of the hope of the resurrection of the dead.”
15
and I have the same hope in God as these men themselves have, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.
21
unless it was this one thing I shouted as I stood in their presence: ‘It is concerning the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you today.’ ”
8
Why should any of you consider it incredible that God raises the dead?
23
that the Messiah would suffer and, as the first to rise from the dead, would bring the message of light to his own people and to the Gentiles.”
4
and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.
24
but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness—for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.
25
He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.
4
We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
5
For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.
8
Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
9
For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.
10
The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
11
In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
11
And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.
9
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
14
By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.
3
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4
that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
5
and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve.
6
After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.
7
Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
8
and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
12
But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
13
If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
14
And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.
15
More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised.
16
For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either.
17
And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.
18
Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost.
19
If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.
20
But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
21
For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.
22
For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.
23
But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.
35
But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”
36
How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.
37
When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a seed, perhaps of wheat or of something else.
38
But God gives it a body as he has determined, and to each kind of seed he gives its own body.
39
Not all flesh is the same: People have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another and fish another.
40
There are also heavenly bodies and there are earthly bodies; but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is another.
41
The sun has one kind of splendor, the moon another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.
42
So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable;
43
it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
44
it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.
45
So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being” ; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit.
46
The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual.
47
The first man was of the dust of the earth; the second man is of heaven.
48
As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.
49
And just as we have borne the image of the earthly man, so shall we bear the image of the heavenly man.
50
I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
51
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—
52
in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.
53
For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.
54
When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
55
“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?”
56
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
57
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58
Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
14
because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you to himself.
1
For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.
2
Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling,
3
because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked.
4
For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.
5
Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.
1
Paul, an apostle—sent not from men nor by a man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead—
19
and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength
20
he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,
5
made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.
6
And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
10
I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,
11
and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.
20
But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,
21
who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
12
having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.
1
Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
10
and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
14
For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
16
For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
10
but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
8
Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel,
18
who have departed from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some.
1
Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God,
2
instruction about cleansing rites, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.
17
By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son,
18
even though God had said to him, “It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.”
19
Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.
35
Women received back their dead, raised to life again. There were others who were tortured, refusing to be released so that they might gain an even better resurrection.
20
Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,
3
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
18
For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit.
21
and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also—not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
5
and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood,
17
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last.
18
I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.
