1 Corinthians 15:32. If after the manner of men I has fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not?
It is quite possible that Paul was thrown to the lions in the theatre at Ephesus, and that he fought with them, and came off a conqueror. "But why," says he, "did I try to save my life for future labour and for future suffering if the dead rise not ?"
1 Corinthians 15:32. Let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.
This is the best philosophy in the world if there is no life to come. So Paul has proved his point right well by every argument that he has used.
