Upon what one fact does Paul base the Christian hope?
Answer
"Now if Christ be preached that He rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no
resurrection of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: and if Christ
be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. 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. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: and if Christ be not raised, your faith is
vain; you are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life
only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable." 1 Cor. 15: 12-19.
