“[1 Corinthians 15] brings to a climax the theme of grace as God’s sovereign free gift through the cross to which ’the dead’ contribute no special ‘knowledge’ or ‘experience,’ but do indeed undergo transformation of life and lifestyle through ‘God, who gives life to the dead’ (Rom. 4:17) on the basis of promise.”
