Now I am going to make clear to you, my brothers, what the good news was which I gave to you, and which you took, and on which your faith is based, By which you have salvation; that is to say, the form in which it was given to you, if it is fixed in your minds, and if your faith in it is not without effect. For I gave to you first of all what was handed down to me, how Christ underwent death for our sins, as it says in the Writings;
And he is the head of the body, the church: the starting point of all things, the first to come again from the dead; so that in all things he might have the chief place.

And if that is so, your faith is of no effect; you are still in your sins.
