RLCC Daily Devotions

Devotional 1: “If Christ Has Not Been Raised…”Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:12“But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?”Explanation: Paul confronts a troubling belief among some in the Corinthian church—denial of the resurrection of the dead. He begins by highlighting the inconsistency of such a view. If the gospel they received proclaims Christ's resurrection, how can they turn around and deny the possibility of resurrection altogether?Personal Application: You are part of a faith that stands or falls on the truth of the resurrection. If you begin to question or ignore this foundational belief, the rest of your faith can start to unravel. Guard your heart from subtle doubts, and renew your confidence in the risen Christ.Reflection Questions:

1. Do you truly believe in the resurrection—not just of Jesus, but your own future resurrection?
2. How does this belief (or lack of it) affect the way you live today?
3. Are there areas where you’ve allowed doubt to quietly weaken your hope?

Paul describes his past as a persecutor, his present as a hard worker, and his identity as one shaped entirely by grace. He knows he worked hard—but he also knows it was God’s grace working through him. This balance is beautiful and necessary in ministry. In the same way, you are called to serve, to lead, and to give your all—but never forget that it’s all grace. Your past doesn’t define you, and your efforts aren’t the source of your strength. Let God’s grace be your fuel, your joy, and your boast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul humbly recalls that Christ appeared to him “as to one abnormally born.” He recognizes his unworthiness, but also the miracle of grace that met him.

Here Paul summarizes the heart of the gospel: Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again—all according to the Scriptures. This message is both deeply personal and profoundly historical. It’s not based on emotion or myth—it is rooted in prophecy and fulfilled promise. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul emphasizes that what he delivered to the Corinthians was not his own idea but something he also received—and it is of first importance. This tells us that not everything in our spiritual lives carries equal weight. The gospel is the priority above all else. It shapes our identity, values, and mission. Hosted on Acast.

Paul opens by reminding the Corinthians of the gospel they received, the very foundation of their faith. This gospel is not just a past event—they are standing in it now and being saved by it daily. But there's a condition: they must hold fast to it. This teaches us that the gospel is not just for unbelievers; it's the daily bread of every believer. We must continually return to it and allow it to shape our lives. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Our mandate is to persuade as many people as possible to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ so they may experience salvation. The new creation has come through the death and resurrection of Jesus, our Lord. God is calling everyone to repent from their sins and be reconciled with Him by believing in Jesus, His Son. We are to announce that today is the day of salvation. Now is the time of grace. This is our urgent mandate. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The message of reconciliation has been entrusted to us, the Church. God wants to save everyone, and He desires to use us as His ambassadors. He wants to speak to us and through us so that people may be reconciled with Him through faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. What an exciting ministry God has allowed us to participate in! God is making all things right (i.e., the righteousness of God) by forgiving and justifying everyone who believes in His Son. This is part of His overall plan to restore everything to its rightful place under Him. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The new creation is God's work; it's not a human achievement. God is making all things right, beginning with people, just as He promised in the Old Testament. He is fulfilling His covenant promise of creating a new people for Himself, composed of both Jews and Gentiles. Thus, those who believe in His Son are also being reconciled with Him. Furthermore, Paul and his companions are given the ministry of reconciliation to share the wonderful message that God is reconciling them to Himself through the once-and-for-all sacrifice of Christ on the cross.
