The document outlines Paul's inductive argument for the resurrection of Jesus in 1 Corinthians 15:12-28. It begins by listing six common "proofs" of the resurrection, such as the empty tomb and eyewitness accounts. However, Paul's argument is presented inductively - he assumes the resurrection is false and shows that this leads to eight logical contradictions. For example, it would mean their faith is in vain and they are still in their sins. Instead, Christ's resurrection means their preaching is true, those who died believing in Christ will be raised, and death will be abolished. In the end, God is glorified through Christ's resurrection.15)6 11
