"...let me ask you something profound yet troubling. If you became believers because you trusted the proclamation that Christ is alive, risen from the dead, how can you let people say that there is no such thing as a resurrection? If there's no resurrection, there's no living Christ. And face it ...everything we've told you is smoke and mirrors. Not only that, but we would be guilty of telling a string of barefaced lies about God, all these affidavits we passed on to you verifying that God raised up Christ---sheer fabrications, if there's no resurrection.
...And if Christ wasn't raised, then all you're doing is wandering about in the dark, as lost as ever. ..But the truth is that Christ has been raised up...
Think straight. Awaken to the holiness of life. No more playing fast and loose with resurrection facts. Ignorance of God is a luxury you can't afford.." (1Corinthians 15:12-34 from The Message)
