1 Corinthians 15 - An Amazing Hope

Some great truths to cling to are found in this chapter, and we are first reminded that all of it hinges on the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  If Christ was not raised from the dead, then none of what He said is worth anything.  But Paul gives us assurance that Christ indeed was resurrected, and that we who believe will follow in His steps (v. 20-22).

Because of Christ, we are destined for immortality in imperishable bodies.  We will never know permanent death.  Because of Christ, eternal victory has been achieved for us.  And we are assured that all the good we do in the name of Jesus will never be in vain (v. 53-58).
