Continuing with I Corinthians Chapter 15 Verses 12-20, the resurrection of Jesus proves there is a resurrection. The doctrine of the resurrection is essential to our Christian faith. Some of the Corintian Christians didn’t deny the resurrection of Jesus, but they denied their resurrection. If there is no resurrection from the dead, then Christ is not risen. If Jesus was never raised from the dead then the Apostle’s preaching is in vain making them false witnesses of God. Therefore, our faith is in vain, we are still in our sins, and those who have died have perished. If Jesus rose from the dead then the Gospel is what it is said to be and Jesus is the Son of God. If your faith is in anyone or anything other than Jesus Christ, your faith is built upon a lie. Upon whom or what is your faith grounded?
