Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL WHICHI PREACHED UNTO YOU, which also YE HAVE RECEIVED,and WHEREIN YE STAND;2 By WHICH ALSO YE ARE SAVED, if ye keep in memory what Ipreached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received,HOW THAT CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS ACCORDING TOTHE SCRIPTURES;4 AND THAT HE WAS BURIED, and that HE ROSE AGAIN THETHIRD DAY ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES:
