RESURRECTION AND LIFE
1 Corinthians 15
Pastor Kent Landhuis
THEME
The resurrection of Jesus gives victory over sin and death.
OUTLINE
1. In Adam, all Die (1 Corinthians 15:21-22, Romans 5:12)
Without the resurrection...
* Our faith is futile.
* We are still in our sins.
* Death is the final enemy.
* Life is bleak and hopeless.
2. In Jesus, all will be made alive. (1 Corinthians 15:12-19, John 11:25-26)
Jesus is risen! This means...
* Our faith matters.
* We are forgiven.
* We live, even though we die.
* We have hope.
3. Thanks be to God, who gives us victory in Jesus.
* 1 Corinthians 15:1-8, 54-58; John 14:19; 1 Peter 1:3)
* The Gospel (The Good News) depends on the resurrection of Jesus.
NEXT STEPS
* Trust Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
* Live in victory. (2 Corinthians 5:17)
