The Eleventh Sunday after
TRINITY
1 Corinthians 15
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the
gospel which I 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 I preached 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 to the
scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose
again the third day according to the scriptures
5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of
the twelve
6 After that, he was seen of above five
hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present,
but some are fallen asleep.
7 After that, he was seen of James; then of
all the apostles.
8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as
of one born out of due time.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, that
am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am
and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more
abundantly than they all yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so
we preach, and so ye believed.
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?
13 But if there be no resurrection of the
dead, then is Christ not risen
14 And if Christ be not risen, then is our
preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
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.
16 For if the dead rise not, then is not
Christ raised
17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith
is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in
Christ are perished.
19 If in this life only we have hope in
Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead,
and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21 For since by man came death, by man came
also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ
shall all be made alive.
23 But every man in his own order Christ the
firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.
24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have
delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down
all rule and all authority and power.
25 For he must reign, till he hath put all
enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is
death.
27 For he hath put all things under his
feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is
excepted, which did put all things under him.
28 And when all things shall be subdued unto
him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things
under him, that God may be all in all.
29 Else what shall they do which are
baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized
for the dead?
30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?
31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have
in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 If after the manner of men I have fought
with beasts at Ephesus
33 Be not deceived evil communications
corrupt good manners.
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for
some have not the knowledge of God I speak this to your shame.
35 But some man will say, How are the dead
raised up? and with what body do they come?
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not
quickened, except it die
37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest
not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some
other grain
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath
pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh but there
is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and
another of birds.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and
bodies terrestrial but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the
terrestrial is another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and
another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars for one star
differeth from another star in glory.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead.
It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption
43 It is sown in dishonour; 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. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam
was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is
spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy the
second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that
are earthy and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the
earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and
blood cannot inherit the kingdom
of God
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall
not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised
incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on
incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put
on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be
brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave,
where is thy victory?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the
strength of sin is the law.
57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the
victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. (See 1 Corinthians 15:51-58, 1
Thessalonians 4:16-18, Revelation 22:12-14, John 14:1-4, Romans 8:19-26, John
16:22)
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye
stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye
know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
~~
I THESSALONIANS 4:16-18
For the LORD himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of GOD: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them
in the clouds, to meet the LORD in the air: and so shall we ever be with the LORD. Wherefore comfort one another with these
words.
~~
Luke 18:9-14
And he spake this parable unto certain which
trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray;
the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with
himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners,
unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes
of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off,
would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast,
saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down to his
house justified rather than the other for every one that exalteth himself shall
be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
Have a BLESSED
