This is a prophetic word for someone. Stay where the door is open.

Paul gives instruction about a offering he will receive for the poor in Jerusalem.

Death stung us or penetrated our lives with sin. Sin found its power in the law. Jesus gave us victory over death and the Law. Our works are not in vain

Suddenly at the great trumpet, the dead will take on the imperishable and all believers will be changed in a new imperishable and immortal body.

We cannot inherit the kingdom of God from someone else. It has to be received personally. Someday all believers will be changed.

Our earthy bodies are like the earth in that they will all perish. Our heavenly bodies are like heaven and will live for eternity.

Our first bodies are earthy, they have limits and will rear out. But our resurrected bodies are eternal. They will never rear out.

Paul compares our bodies to our resurrected bodies. Bodies that are imperishable, full of glory and power. Spiritual bodies without limitations.

Our heavenly bodies will be different from our earthly bodies. God will give each of us a heavenly body as He wishes.

People will ask questions abut the resurrection like how will happen. A seed is sown and becomes something new.

Paul warns the Corinthians to stay way from people who deny the resurrection. He tells them that it is a sin to fill your mind with their teaching.

If there is no resurrection why are Christians giving themselves to persecution?

The culmination of redemption. Jesus will take everything and bring it to God our Father.

Death is the last enemy to be abolished. The earth as we know it will be burned and gone. Every person will be living for eternity either in heaven or hell.

The end comes when Jesus puts all things under His feet. This includes those who do not belong to Him. Everything will be subject to Him.

The order of the resurrection is first Christ and then those who are his at his return.

Death came when Adam sinned, resurrection life came when Jesus was risen from the dead. All in Christ have been made alive.

Paul continues to refute the false claims of no resurrection form the dead. Christ is the first fruits of the resurrection.

Paul is talking about how if there is no resurrection then our faith is useless. Christ was raised and we will be raised with Him.

The Apostle Paul addresses another problem. The resurrection from the dead. Paul is amazed at the fact that some of the Corinthians did not believe in the resurrection.
