• Greek culture vs. biblical truth about resurrection.
• “According to the Scriptures” — The gospel is not man-made (Gal. 1:11–12).
• Christ died, was buried, and rose again — just like the Bible said!
• We still live according to the Scriptures (Hebrews 5:1–3).

Closing Thought: The resurrection is not just history—it’s still shaping our lives today.

• Eyewitness accounts: Peter, the twelve, over 500, James.
• These were real people who staked their lives on what they saw.
• Our faith is not blind—it’s rooted in history and truth.

🔹 Episode 3: From Persecutor to Preacher – Grace Declared

Text: 1 Corinthians 15:8–11 Theme: The resurrection changes lives—Paul is living proof.

Talking Points:

• Paul the persecutor became Paul the preacher—“But then came Jesus!”
• Grace made him a partaker (2 Timothy 1:8; 2 Peter 1:4).
• Grace was bestowed—freely given, not earned.
• Paul became a possessor of resurrection life (Ephesians 2:1).
• You can find yourself in that phrase: “But by the grace of God…”
