Geneva Study Bible - 1 Corinthians 15:14

15:14 {5} And if Christ be not risen, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain.(5) The proof of that absurdity, by other absurdities: if Christ is not risen again, the preaching of the Gospel is in vain, and the credit that you gave to it is vain, and we are liars. read more

Geneva Study Bible - 1 Corinthians 15:17

15:17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; {7} ye are {e} yet in your sins.(7) First, seeing death is the punishment of sin, in vain should we believe that our sins were forgiven us, if they remain: but they do remain, if Christ did not rise from death.(e) They are yet in their sins who are not sanctified, nor have obtained remission of their sins. read more
