The Gospel of the Risen Christ
(1Cor. 15:1-11).
The brethren had received the gospel; they
were standing in the gospel; they were being
saved by the gospel (1Cor. 15:1,2).
Paul had received this gospel by revelation
(Gal. 1:12; 1Cor. 2:6-16).
Paul felt that of all those who wore the name of
apostle he was the least deserving.

The Consequences of Denying the
Resurrection (1Cor. 15:12-19).
Some of the brethren in Corinth were saying
that there was no resurrection of the dead.
Paul now argues that if there is no
resurrection from the dead that even Christ
has not been raised.
If there is no resurrection of the dead then
there is no hope for those who have already
died.

The Consequences of Christ’s Resurrection
(1Cor. 15:20-28).
Christ’s resurrection is a pledge that on the
final day, when the end comes, that those who
are asleep, physically dead, may be
resurrected also.
Here is what is to happen on the final day, the
resurrection day.

Answers to Problems of the Resurrection
(1Cor. 15:29-49).
This is a difficult verse, no doubt (1Cor. 15:29).
The apostle asks two questions here:
1. “How can God raise the dead?” The
answer is in 1Cor. 15:36-38.
2. “What kind of body will the resurrected
body be?” The answer is in 1Cor. 15:39-49.

Events of the Resurrection Day
(1Cor. 15:50-58).
A mystery is something yet to be revealed.
Some will be alive at the second coming of
Christ. But everyone, whether physically alive
or dead will be changed.
Physical death is swallowed up victoriously!
The final enemy has been overcome!

1. Conviction (steadfast, immovable).
2. Zeal (always abounding).
