Let me now remind you, dear brothers and sisters, of the Good News I preached to you before. ³ I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me. Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. ⁴ He was buried, 1 Corinthians 15:1, 3-4

“The sinless and perfect Son of God died for us, the sinful and the imperfect.”

Then the men asked, “Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive? ⁶ He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Luke 24:4-6
