• 1 Cor 15:13-57 : 13 If there be no rysyng agayne of the dead, then is Christe not rysen agayne. 14 If Christe be not rysen agayne, then is our preachyng vayne, and your fayth is also vayne. 15 Yea, and we are founde false witnesses of God: For we haue testified of God, howe that he raysed vp Christe, whom he raysed not vp, yf it be so that the dead ryse not agayne. 16 For yf the dead ryse not agayne, then is not Christe rysen agayne. 17 If it be so, that Christ rose not againe, then is your fayth vayne, and ye are yet in your sinnes. 18 Therfore, they which are fallen in a slepe in Christe, are perisshed. 19 If in this lyfe only we haue hope on Christe, then are we of all men moste miserable. 20 But nowe is Christe rysen from the dead, the first fruites of them that slept. 21 For since by man came death, euen so by man came the resurrection of ye dead. 22 For, as by Adam all dye: euen so by Christe shall all be made alyue, 23 But euery man in his owne order. The first fruites is Christe, afterward, they that are Christes at his commyng. 24 Then commeth the ende, when he hath deliuered vp the kingdome to God the father, when he hath put downe all rule, and all auctoritie, and power. 25 For he must raigne tyll he haue put all his enemies vnder his feete. 26 The last enemie that shalbe destroyed, is death. 27 For he hath put downe all thynges vnder his feete: But when he saith, all thynges are vnder hym, it is manifest that he is excepted which dyd put all thynges vnder hym. 28 When all thynges are subdued vnto hym, then shall the sonne also hym selfe be subiect vnto him that put all thinges vnder hym, that God may be all in all. 29 Els what shall they do, which are baptized for the dead, yf the dead ryse not at all? 30 Why are they then baptized for them? And why stande we in ieopardie euery houre? 31 By our reioycyng which I haue in Christe Iesu our Lorde, I dye dayly. 32 If I haue fought with beastes at Ephesus after the maner of men, what auauntageth it me, yf the dead ryse not agayne? Let vs eate & drynke, for to morowe we shall dye. 33 Be not deceaued. Euyll wordes, corrupt good maners. 34 Awake truely out of slepe, and sinne not: For some haue not the knowledge of God. I speake this to your shame. 35 But some man wyll say, howe are the dead raysed vp? With what bodie shall they come? 36 Thou foole, that which thou sowest, is not quickened except it dye. 37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shalbe, but bare corne, as of wheate, or of some other: 38 But God geueth it a body at his pleasure, to euery seede his owne body. 39 All flesshe, is not the same flesshe: But there is one maner of flesshe of me, another flesshe of beastes, another of fisshes, and another of byrdes. 40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: But the glorie of the celestial is one, and the glorie of the terrestrial another. 41 There is another glorie of the sunne, and another glorie of the moone, and another glorie of the starres: For one starre differeth from another starre in glorie. 42 So is the resurrection of the dead. It is sowen in corruption, it ryseth in incorruption. 43 It is sowen in dishonour, it riseth in honour. It is sowen in weakenesse, it ryseth in power. 44 It is sowen a naturall bodie, it ryseth a spirituall bodie. There is a naturall bodie, and there is a spirituall bodie. 45 As it is also written: The first man Adam was made a lyuyng soule, and the last Adam was made a quickenyng spirite. 46 Howebeit, that is not first whiche is spirituall, but that whiche is naturall, and then that whiche is spirituall. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the seconde man is the Lorde from heauen. 48 As is the earthy, suche are they that are earthy: And as is the heauenly, such are they also that are heauenly. 49 And as we haue borne the image of the earthy, so shall we beare the image of the heauenly. 50 This saye I brethren, that fleshe and blood can not inherite the kyngdome of God: Neither doth corruption, inherite incorruption. 51 Beholde, I shewe you a misterie. We shall not all slepe: but we shall all be chaunged. 52 In a moment, in the twynklyng of an eye, at the last trumpe. For the trumpe shall blowe, and the dead shall ryse incorruptible, and we shalbe chaunged. 53 For this corruptible, must put on incorruption, and this mortall must put on immortalitie. 54 When this corruptible, hath put on incorruption, and this mortal, hath put on immortalitie, then shalbe brought to passe the saying that is written, Death is swalowed vp into victorie. 55 O death where is thy stynge? O hell where is thy victorie? 56 The stynge of death is sinne, and the strength of sinne is the lawe. 57 But thankes be vnto God, whiche hath geue vs victorie through our Lord Iesus Christe.

I aunswered, O Lorde God, thou knowest. 4 And he saide vnto me, Prophecie thou vpon these bones, & speake vnto them: Ye drye bones, heare the worde of the Lorde, 5 Thus saith the Lorde God vnto these bones: Beholde, I wyll cause breath to enter into you, that ye may lyue. 6 I wyll geue you sinowes, and make fleshe growe vpon you, and couer you ouer with skinne, & so geue you breath, that ye may liue, and knowe that I am the Lorde. 7 So I prophecied as I was comaunded: and as I was propheciyng, there was a noyse, and lo a great motion, so that the bones came neare together, bone to his bone. 8 Now when I had loked, behold they had sinowes, & flesh grewe vpon them, and aboue they were couered with skin: but there was no breath in them. 9 Then saide he vnto me: Thou sonne of man, prophecie thou towarde the winde, prophecie & speake to the winde, thus saith the Lorde God: Come, O thou ayre from the foure windes, and blowe vpon these slaine, that they may lyue. 10 So I prophecied as he had commaunded me: then came the breath into them, and they receaued lyfe, and stoode vp vpon their feete, a marueilous great armie. 11 Moreouer he said vnto me: Thou sonne of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: Behold, they say, Our bones are dryed vp, our hope is gone, and we are cleane cut of. 12 Therefore prophecie thou, and speake vnto them, thus saith the Lorde God: Beholde, I wyll open your graues O my people, and cause you to come vp out your sepulchres, and bring you into the lande of Israel againe. 13 So shal ye know that I am the Lord, when I open your graues O my people, & bring you out of your sepulchres. 14 My spirite also wil I put in you, and ye shal liue, I wil set you againe in your owne lande: and ye shall knowe that I the Lorde haue sayde it, and fulfilled it in deede, sayth the Lorde.

For they all had her. 29 Iesus aunswered & sayde vnto them: ye do erre, not knowyng the Scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection, they neither mary, nor are geuen in maryage: but are as the Angels of God in heauen. 31 But as touchyng the resurrection of the dead: haue ye not read that which is spoken vnto you of God, which sayth. 32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob?
