1_Corinthians 15:1~11
THE GOSPEL OF THE RESURRECTION (1), Dr. Samuel Lee
VICTORY THROUGH JESUS!
Passage: 1_Corinthians 15:50~58
Key verse: 57
1. Death has been swallowed up (50-57)
Our perishable body will be exchanged for an imperishable body because flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. This will happen in a twinkling of an eye when Jesus comes with the trumpet sound. Then the dead will be raised and the mortal will be clothed with immortality. Our last enemy, death, will be swallowed up in victory. For sin, that caused death, was forgiven. Sin’s power, the law, was paid in full through Jesus’ death. Praise Jesus Christ our Lord who gives us victory over death!
2. Your labor in the Lord is not in vain (58)
This life is not everything. Eternal life that bears the glorious image of Jesus is guaranteed for us believers: Victory over death in Christ Jesus! Therefore, we should stand firm and let nothing move us. We should give ourselves always and fully to the work of the Lord, for we know that our labor in the Lord is not in vain.
Prayer: Lord, let me always and fully give myself to your work, for I know that only what I give to you will never be in vain.
One Word: O victory in Jesus!
