Episode - 175 The Resurrection Matters (1 Corinthians 15:12-19) [ 21:33 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (209)In this show you will hear a recording of a message I preached recently to Mt. Tabor in prepration for Resurrection Sunday (Easter). It begins a two part series The Resurrection Matters (1 Corinthians 15:12-19). I discuss three of six reasons from the text why the resurrection matters. The outline and text are below. If you like the show consider supporting it.
Outline:
If there is no resurrection
- Jesus is still dead
- The Gospel is no gospel at all but a false message of hope
- Our faith is powerless and useless.
The Text:
[1Co 15:12-19 KJV] 12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: 14 And if Christ be not risen, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain. 15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. 16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: 17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins. 18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. 19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
