1 Corinthians 15:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ For I am the least of the apostles. I am not even ·good enough [worthy] to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. ¹⁰ But God’s grace has made me what I am, and his grace to me was not ·wasted [in vain; without effect]. [^LOn the contrary; Indeed] I worked harder than all ·the other apostles [of them]. (But it was not I really; it was God’s grace that was with me.) ¹¹ So whether I preached to you or ·the other apostles [^Lthey] preached to you, ·we all preach the same thing [this is what we preach; ^Cthe message of Christ’s death and resurrection; vv. 3–8], and this is what you believed.
