"1Co 15:1  Now I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received and wherein you stand.
1Co 15:2  By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.
1Co 15:3  For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:
1Co 15:4  And that he was buried: and that he rose again according to the scriptures:
1Co 15:5  And that he was seen by Cephas, and after that by the eleven.
1Co 15:6  Then was he seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep.
1Co 15:7  After that, he was seen by James: then by all the apostles.
1Co 15:8  And last of all, he was seen also by me, as by one born out of due tine.
1Co 15:9  For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
1Co 15:10  But by the grace of God, I am what I am. And his grace in me hath not been void: but I have laboured more abundantly than all they. Yet not I, but the grace of God with me:
1Co 15:11  For whether I or they, so we preach: and so you have believed."
1 Corinthians 15:1-11

"Psa 118:1  Give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 118:2  Let Israel now say, that he is good: that his mercy endureth for ever.
Psa 118:16  The right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength: the right hand of the Lord hath exalted me: the right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength.
Psa 118:17  I shall not die, but live: and shall declare the works of the Lord.
Psa 118:28  Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, and I will exalt thee. I will praise thee, because thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation."
Psalm 118:1-2,16-17,28

Luk 7:44  And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon: Dost thou see this woman? I entered into thy house: thou gavest me no water for my feet. But she with tears hath washed my feet; and with her hairs hath wiped them.
Luk 7:45  Thou gavest me no kiss. But she, since she cane in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
Luk 7:46  My head with oil thou didst not anoint. But she with ointment hath anointed my feet.
Luk 7:47  Wherefore, I say to thee: Many sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved much. But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.
