subject, the resurrection. He deals with it in two ways. First he confirms the resurrection of Christ, and then, as a result of His resurrection, Paul speaks on the resurrection of believers in Christ\u2014the Confirmation of Christ resurrection and the Consequences of it for us. The Resurrection of Christ is the very cornerstone of Christianity. From this truth grows everything else! It has been said, <i>\u201cJust as the heart pumps life, giving blood to every part of the body, so the truth of the resurrection gives life to every area of gospel truth.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p class=\"p1\">It is the Resurrection of Christ that:<\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li1\">Declares Him to be the Son of God. Paul says in Romans 1:3-4, <i>\u201cconcerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who\u00a0was\u00a0born of the seed of David according to the flesh, and\u00a0declared\u00a0to be\u00a0the Son of God with power according\u00a0to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.\u201d<\/i><span class=\"s2\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/li><li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s3\">Confirms all the truth to all the words which He spoke. The angel could say, <i>\u201c<\/i><\/span><span class=\"s4\"><i>He is not here; for He is risen,\u00a0as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay\u201d (Matthew 28:6).<\/i><\/span><\/li><li class=\"li2\"><span class=\"s4\">Assures the believer of God\u2019s acceptance of His atonement upon the Cross that clothes us with a perfect righteousness as Romans 4:25 tells us, <\/span><span class=\"s3\"><i>\u201cwho was delivered up because of our offenses, and\u00a0was raised because of our justification.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/li><li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s4\">Gives divine power for daily living Christian living and service. Paul desired <i>\u201cthat I may know Him and the\u00a0power of His resurrection, and\u00a0the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death\u201d (Philippians 3:10).<\/i><\/span><\/li><li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s4\">Through which Christ is made the Head of the Church, enthroned at the right Hand of the Father.<\/span><i> \u201cworking of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. And He put all things under His feet and gave Him to be head over all things to the church\u201d (Ephesians 1:19-22).<\/i><\/li><li class=\"li1\">Guarantees the resurrection of everyone who puts their faith in the finished work of Christ. \u201c<i>There is\u00a0therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus\u201d (Romans 8:1).<\/i><\/li><li class=\"li1\">It is the pivot point of our regeneration, <i>\u201cBlessed\u00a0be\u00a0the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who\u00a0according to His abundant mercy\u00a0has begotten us again to a living hope\u00a0through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead\u201d (1 Peter 1:3).<\/i><\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"p1\"><b>Background to 1 Corinthians 15<\/b><\/h3><p class=\"p1\">Paul wrote this chapter because people were beginning to waiver on the doctrine of the resurrection of believers. Some denied it as in 15:12, <i>\u201cHow do some say that there is no resurrection of the dead?\u201d<\/i> While others did not understand it, as in 15:35, <i>\u201cSomeone will say, how is the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?\u201d<\/i> Paul makes it clear that to deny the resurrection of the dead is to deny the resurrection of Christ, and to deny the resurrection of Christ is to deny the very power of Salvation.<\/p><h3 class=\"p1\"><b>Overview of the Chapter<\/b><\/h3><p class=\"p1\">Paul provides six definite proofs of the resurrection designed to silence the argument against this teaching.<\/p><ol class=\"ol1\"><li class=\"li1\">The Scriptural argument (v1-4)<\/li><li class=\"li1\">The Historical argument (v5-11)<\/li><li class=\"li1\">The Logical argument (v12-19)<\/li><li class=\"li1\">The Theological argument (v20-28)<\/li><li class=\"li1\">The Ethical argument (v29-34)<\/li><li class=\"li1\">The Ecological argument (v35-57)<\/li><\/ol><p>This excellent chapter opens with a clear statement of what the saving Gospel is all about. From there, the verses rise together like the words of a great anthem.\u00a0\u00a0Over and over, Paul sounds out the great refrain: Jesus Christ is risen indeed! The saints are reminded that because Jesus lives, they shall live also. They are reminded that even if death were to take these mortal bodies, we will live on in a new body in a new place called Heaven. What a truth to encourage us today!<\/p><p class=\"p1\">Years ago, Bill and Gloria Gaither penned the refrain to the song \u201cBecause He Lives.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0The first verse and chorus read:<\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><i>God sent His son, they called Him Jesus; <br \/><\/i><i>He came to love, heal and forgive;<br \/><\/i><i>He lived and died to buy my pardon; <br \/><\/i><i>An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives! <\/i><\/p><p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><i>Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. <br \/><\/i><i>Because He lives all fear is gone. <br \/><\/i><i>Because I know He holds the future<br \/>And life is worth the living just because He lives.<\/i><\/p><p class=\"p1\">This song embraces the very truth of the resurrection and gives such hope and assurance!<\/p><h3 class=\"p1\"><b>The Powerful Declaration (15:20)<\/b><\/h3><p class=\"p3\"><i>\u201cBut now Christ is risen from the dead and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.\u201d <\/i>Notice the \u201cBut now,\u201d this is a key word that connects and contrasts v12-19. In those verses Paul gave seven \u201cif\u2019s\u201d (v12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19). In verse 20 he emphatically declares, \u201cBut now Christ is risen from the dead!&#8221; No more ifs. This is an essential part of the gospel as he taught back in the first eleven verses where he gave the scriptural and historical sides of the gospel.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p3\">Here Paul goes on to declare that having risen from among the dead, the Lord Jesus has become the firstfruit of those who have fallen asleep. This idea of firstfruit takes us back to Leviticus 23:9-14, where the farmer who sowed the seed would grab a handful of seed once it had ripened and offer those firstfruits to the Lord. This indicated that all was from God by His power and for His glory! It anticipated the rest of the crop which would follow in a full harvest! Christ as our firstfruit guarantees our resurrection. Since Christ has been raised, so will we be!<\/p><h3 class=\"p3\"><b>A Parallel Comparison (15:21-22)<\/b><\/h3><p class=\"p1\"><i>\u201cFor since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even in Christ all shall be made alive.\u201d<\/i> <span class=\"s4\">Paul goes on to describe the doctrine implications of the resurrection of Christ, and he does this by using two explanatory states, one in verse 21 and the other in verse 22. Notice the word \u201cFor\u201d in both verses; this indicates a dual explanation of verse 20. Paul reminds us that there are two men in the history of man. God sees two men, two heads, Adam and Christ. The whole world is either in Adam or in Christ. All those still in Adam experience death, but in Christ, all are made alive. This is seen very clearly in Romans 5:12-19.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p><h3 class=\"p3\"><b>A Proper Order (15:23-24)<\/b><\/h3><p class=\"p1\"><i>\u201cBut each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ\u2019s at His coming. Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power.\u201d<\/i> In these verses, Paul lays out a timeline or an order of events in the resurrection. First, Christ the firstfruit, then those who are Christ at His coming. This is mentioned in Romans 8:23-24, <i>\u201cwe also who have\u00a0the firstfruits of the Spirit,\u00a0even we ourselves groan\u00a0within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the\u00a0redemption of our body.\u00a0For we were saved in this hope, but\u00a0hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?<\/i>\u201d And it is detailed for us in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, <i>\u201cBut I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus, we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.\u201d <\/i>This prospect awaits all those who are in Christ, all those who are His at His coming!<\/p><p class=\"p1\">\u201c<i>Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power.\u201d <\/i>This takes us to the end of the world order, the final victory of Christ over all evil. This looks beyond the tribulation period and the millennial kingdom to the time when all authority (those who exercise rule) and all power (how they rule) will be judged. Christ has been raised to bring all authority and power to their end!<\/p><h3 class=\"p1\"><b>A Promised Reign (15:25-28)<\/b><\/h3><p class=\"p4\">In Matthew 28:18, the Lord Jesus said, \u201cAll authority has been given unto Me\u2026\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>In Hebrews 2:9, we read, <i>\u201cFor He has not put the world to come, of which we speak, in subjection to angels. But one testified in a certain place, saying: \u201cWhat is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You take care of him? You have made him a little lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, and set him over the works of Your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet.\u201d For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.\u201d<br \/><\/i><\/p><p class=\"p4\">Because of the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, God has made this same Jesus Lord and Christ (Acts 2:36). It would be good to look at Peter\u2019s address in Acts 2 to see that this same One who was crucified, God has raised up, exalted and glorified (v24, 29-36). The point is that the Lord Jesus reigns presently and will reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Today He reigns in the hearts of those who have trust in Him. According to Romans 5:20-21, grace reigns through righteousness, and those in Christ, grace reigns over us (Romans 6:14). But as we read in Hebrews 2, we do not yet see all things under Him. But our verses in 1 Corinthians 15 look to that day! He was raised to reign! A dead Savior cannot reign! But He has been raised and will reign. Both Peter in Acts 2 and Paul here refer to when all His enemies will be made His footstool. This comes from Psalm 110, and looks forward to the coming day!<\/p><p class=\"p4\">At the Cross, the Lord Jesus defeated Him, who has the power of death (Hebrews 2:14-15), but in a coming day, the last enemy, Death, will be destroyed because He lives! What the first Adam gave up, the Lord Jesus, the previous Adam, regained! What the first man lost was captured through the second man! This is the force of verse 27, which can be compared to Psalm 8 and the verse we read in Hebrews 2. No resurrection, no ascension; no ascension, no exaltation; no exaltation no enthronement!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p1\">Verse 28 looks to the eternal state where the Kingdom will no longer be the Kingdom of the Son of Man, but the Kingdom of God existing in Eternal form!<i> <\/i>The Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to whom all things will be made subject, will then Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him that God may be all in all! All this because of the resurrection of Christ!<i><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p class=\"p1\">This is the ultimate fulfillment of Romans 11:36, <i>\u201cFor\u00a0of Him and through Him and to Him\u00a0are\u00a0all things,\u00a0to whom\u00a0be\u00a0glory forever. Amen.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p><p class=\"p2\" style=\"text-align: center;\">One day when Heaven was filled with His praises,<br \/>One day when sin was as
