1 Cor. 15:12-23 (12 in 12 verses)

 15:12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

 15:13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

 15:14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

 15:15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.

 15:16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

 15:17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.

 15:18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

 15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.

 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.

 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
