The reading changes at midnight Central Time, and it stays the same all day.
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Plain English
Paul passed on what he had received: "Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures," He was buried, and "he rose again the third day." The order is plain on purpose. He died for our sins, He was buried, and He rose on the third day. The holy writings had said it would happen this way.
Devotional
Good news gets muddy when we decorate it with guesses. A grandchild asks what you believe, and you can answer with the facts you were given. Christ died for our sins, He was buried, and He rose on the third day. That is the news at the center, and it does not need to be dressed up to be true.
