Your Labour Is Not In Vain
(1 Corinthians 15:58) I just love this verse. It fills me with both comfort and encouragement because it is good to know that your work is both appreciated and valuable. Anyone who does any kind of work for the Lord should also take comfort in these words. They are words of hope because they tell…

The Sting Of Death
(1 Corinthians 15:50-57) This section of scripture is well known among Christians for a number of different reasons, but what it represents is one of the least understood principles in the bible. It speaks directly to what the offer of God's grace is to mankind. Grace is one of those “churchy” words that Christians throw…

The hope of salvation that we teach and believe in is that we will be resurrected to life in Christ Jesus through the grace of…

No Resurrection, No Christianity
(1 Corinthians 15:12-19) I wrote in my last post and have done so on other occasions also, that where there is no resurrection, there is no Christianity. Resurrection is the central core of what Christianity is all about. Christianity does not exist without it and it was the resurrection of Jesus Christ when the fulness…

Resurrection of First Importance
(1 Corinthians 15:1-11) There are many, many things we have to learn in relation to walking in Christ, and there are often many different opinions about what we believe. But Christianity, when it is all boiled down, has only a very few critical teachings by which we receive the gift of God’s salvation. The few…
