Resurrection The Reality of Resurrection Affirmed by multiple biblical authors

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection The truth of Christianity depends on the reality of Jesus’ resurrection, which is the guarantee of our resurrection (1 Cor 15:12-23)

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection Paul offers two additional points: 1.If there were no resurrection, it is foolish to put one’s life at risk to preach the gospel (15:30-31)

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection Paul offers two additional points: 2.If there were no resurrection, life would be meaningless (15:32- 34)

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection If there were no resurrection, our faith is FALSE (v15), FUTILE (v 17) and FATAL (v18)

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection An additional observation: The Resurrection of the body affirms the ‘goodness’ of bodily existence

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection We were created to be embodied persons Our created nature is ‘good’ (Gen 1:26-31) cf. Are Christians Human? By Nigel Cameron

Resurrection The Relevance of Resurrection The Incarnation affirms the goodness of our embodied existence The resurrection reaffirms this goodness

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection The Bible appears to teach a bodily, physical resurrection What about texts that appear to suggest otherwise?

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection Cf. 1 Cor 15:44 where Paul refers to the ‘spiritual body’ (sōma pneumatikon) Paul writes what is sown is sōma psychikon and what is raised is sōma pneumatikon

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection Cf. 1 Cor 15:44 where Paul refers to the ‘spiritual body’ (sōma pneumatikon) These same terms are used in 2:14-15 as a contrast of orientation, not substance

14 The natural person (psychikos) does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. 15 The spiritual person (pneumatikos) judges all things but is himself to be judged by no one. [ESV]

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection Cf. 1 Cor 15:50 Paul says ‘flesh and blood’ cannot inherit the kingdom of God Verses make it clear that this term refers to the mortal body, not a physical body

50 I tell you this, brothers, flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. 53 For this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality. [ESV]

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection What will the resurrection body be like (cf. 15:35) ? Imperishable (42) Glorified (43) Powerful (43) Spiritual (44)

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection What will the resurrection body be like (cf. 15:35) ? from Heaven (47) Bearing the image of Christ (49) Immortal (53)

Resurrection The Result of Resurrection What will we look like? ?????????

There are many unanswered questions re the resurrection We should be willing to recognize we cannot know all we might like to know Resurrection

We should focus on Paul’s final exhortation Be steadfast Always do the work of the Lord Know your labor is not in vain Resurrection
