Yea, we are found false witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead are not raised.

'Yea' -'More than that' (Mon)

'we are found false witnesses of God' -'we are found guilty of misrepresenting God' (Gspd)

'False witnesses, not mistaken witnesses. He allows no loophole of escape: the resurrection is. fact, or else. falsehood.' (Willis p. 541)

'because we witnessed' -The testimony of the Apostles was that Jesus had been raised. (Acts 2:24; Acts 2:32; Acts 3:15; Acts 3:26; Acts 4:10)

Point to Note:

Paul's logic here must be applied. Those who take various liberal views of the Bible, must face the following conclusion. If as they say, Genesis 1:1; Genesis 2:1; Genesis 3:1; Genesis 4:1; Genesis 5:1; Genesis 6:1; Genesis 7:1; Genesis 8:1; Genesis 9:1; Genesis 10:1; Genesis 11:1 is mythical, the flood wasn't universal, Sodom and Gomorrah really weren't destroyed by God Himself, the Israelites really didn't pass through the Red Sea on dry ground, Jonah really wasn't swallowed by. big fish, and that the O.T. and the N.T. really aren't the infallible word of God...THEN..the biblical writers who WROTE TO THE CONTRARY...are all going to hell-including Moses, many of the prophets (who claimed inspiration), the writers of the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John-for they all endorsed the miraculous nature of many OT events)..Peter and Paul are also lost, for both of them endorsed many OT miraculous events too (1 Corinthians 10:1; 1 Peter 3:20; 2 Peter 2:1; 2 Peter 3:1). Either what they wrote is true, or what they wrote is false, and they are guilty of bearing false witness against God...IT'S ONE OR THE OTHER.
