which I preached vnto you which also ye haue receaued and wherin ye cōtinue 2 By the which also ye are saued yf ye kepe in memorie after what maner I preached vnto you except ye haue beleued in vayne 3 For first of all I deliuered vnto you that which I receaued howe that * Christe dyed for our sinnes agreeyng to the scriptures 4 And that he was buryed and that he arose agayne the thirde day accordyng to the scriptures 5 And that he was seene of Cephas then of the twelue 6 After that he was seene of mo then fiue hundred brethren at once of which many remayne vnto this day some are fallen a slepe 7 After that he was seene of Iames then of all the Apostles 8 And last of all he was seene of me as of one borne out of due tyme. 9 For I am the least of the Apostles which am not worthy to be called an Apostle because I persecuted the Churche of God 10 But by the grace of God I am that I am And his grace which is in me was not in vayne But I laboured more aboundauntly then they all yet not I but the grace of God which is with me 11 Therfore whether it were I or they so we preache and so haue ye beleued 12 ☞ If Christe be preached howe that he rose from the dead howe say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead 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 y e 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 shal be 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 shal be 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 mē 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 shal be 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 shal be 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 geuē vs victorie through our Lord Iesus Christe 58 Therfore my beloued brethren be ye stedfast vnmouable alwayes riche in the worke of the

Chapter ◠An appearaunce of the similitude of God 3 Ezechiel is brought to Hierusalem in the spirite 6 The Lord sheweth the idolatries of the house of Israel chiefly of the priestes 1 AND it was in the sixt yere in the sixt moneth in the fift day of the moneth I sate in my house and the elders of Iuda sate before me and the hande of the Lorde God fell there vpon me 2 Then I behelde and lo there was a likenesse as the appearaunce of fire from the appearaunce of his loynes downewarde fire and from his loynes vpwarde as the appearaunce of brightnesse lyke the colour of amber 3 And he stretched out the likenesse of an hande and toke me by an heery locke of my head and the spirite lift me vp betwixt earth and heauen and brought me in a diuine vision to Hierusalem into the entry of the inner gate that lyeth towarde the north where remayned the image of emulation and of gayne 4 And beholde the glorie of the Lorde God of Israel was in the same place euen as I had seene it afore in the fielde 5 And he sayde vnto me Thou sonne of man lift vp thine eyes nowe towarde the north then lift I vp mine eyes towarde the north and beholde northwarde at the gate of the aulter this image of emulation was in the entry 6 And he sayde furthermore vnto me Thou sonne of man seest thou what these do seest thou the great abhominations that the house of Israel commit in this place to driue me from my sanctuarie but turne thee about and thou shalt see yet greater abhominations 7 And with that brought he me to the court gate and when I loked beholde there was a hole in the wall 8 Then sayde he vnto me Thou sonne of man digge nowe in the wall and when I digged in the wall beholde there was a doore 9 And he sayde vnto me Go thy way in and loke what wicked abhominations they do here 10 So I went in and sawe and beholde there were al maner of creeping beastes and abhominable beastes and all the idols of the house of Israel paynted vpon the wall rounde about 11 There stoode also before the images threescore and ten men of the auncientes of the house of Israel and in the middest of thē stoode Iaazaniah the sonne of Shaphan with euery man his censor in his hande and the smoke of the insence ascended as a cloude 12 Then sayde he vnto me Thou sonne of man hast thou seene what the auncientes of the house of Israel do secretly euery one in the chaumber of his imagerie for they say The Lorde seeth vs not the Lorde hath forsaken the earth 13 And he sayde vnto me Turne thee yet agayne and thou shalt see greater abhominations that they do 14 And with that he brought me to the doore of the gate of the Lordes house towarde the north and beholde there sate womē mourning for Thammuz 15 Then sayd he vnto me Hast thou seene this thou sonne of man turne thee yet about and thou shalt see greater abhominations then these are 16 And so he brought me into the inward court of the Lordes house and beholde at the doore of the Lordes house betwixt the porche and the aulter there were about twentie and fiue men that turned their backes vpon the temple of the Lorde and their faces towarde the east and these worshipped the sunne eastwarde 17 And he sayde vnto me Hast thou seene this thou sonne of man Thinketh the house of Iuda that it is but a trifle to do these abhominations which they do here for they haue fylled the lande full of wickednesse and haue returned to prouoke me to anger and lo they are puttyng the braunches to their noses 18 Therfore wyll I also do somethyng in my wrathful displeasure so that mine eye shall not spare them neither wyll I haue pitie yea and though they crye in mine eares with a loude voyce yet wyll I not heare them ¶ The .ix.
