Raising The Dead. You’re Kidding Right? 1 Cor 15:19 s4e108

Our official passage in John 5:21 makes an audacious claim:  God raises the dead.  Either He does or He doesn't.  Everything rests upon this power.  Jesus puts it out there like a big stumbling block.

Paul makes an argument FOR God raising the dead by arguing AGAINST it in 1 Cor 15:12-26.  If Christ is not raised from the dead and there is no RESURRECTION, consider the implications:

• We have a false savior. a non-savior.  We then don't have a savior.
• All the preaching and communicating about Jesus is in vain.
• Any faith, belief, trust we have in Jesus is in vain; futile
• Bible teachers are all liers
• You are still stuck forever in your sins and in their consequences
• You still have a death problem 
• Christians are the most pitiable people on the planet

Or, it is TRUE.  God DOES have this power.  He exercises it in the resurrection of Jesus.  He goes first and we follow.  He has got my death problem covered. Death is destroyed.  I get to live with God forever.  I belong to Christ.
