1 Corinthians 15:16-20
”For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen. And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable. But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep…”
Jeremiah 17:9
”The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?”
