“…Knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”
1 Corinthians 15
Christ Is Risen from the dead
He is Above All!
The Majesty of Christ:
The Book of Hebrews
Heir of all things
One through whom God made the worlds
Vs. 1:2
Who being the brightness of God‘s glory
The expressed image of His person
Upholding all things by the Word of His power
Purger of our sins
Seated at the right hand of the Majesty on High
Vs. 1:3
So much better than the Angels
Obtaining a more excellent Name
Vs. 1:4
Captain of our Salvation
Vs. 2:14
A Merciful High Priest
Vs. 2:17
Worthy of more glory than Moses
Vs. 3:3
High Priest Who can sympathize with our weaknesses
Vs. 4:15
Able to save to the uttermost
He always lives to make intercession
Vs. 7:25
He has obtained a More Excellent Ministry
He is also Mediator of a Better Covenant
Vs. 8:6
The Author and Finisher of our Faith
He endured the Cross despising its shame
Seated at the Right Hand of the throne of God
The One Whom we consider, during hostility and discouragement
Vs. 12:2-3
The Great Shepherd of the sheep
Vs. 13:20
This is the Risen King!
The Resurrection matters!
Believing in your heart,
Confessing with your mouth:
That Jesus Christ is Lord,
and that God raised Him from the dead,
is the foundation of Salvation
The Proof:
The Gospels
Acts of the Apostles
Paul
Martyrs
The Power of the Holy Spirit to change lives
Non-Christian historical accounts
The chronological account Post Resurrection:
Paul’s account:
1 Corinthians 15
The dramatic change
The life of Paul
The empty tomb
The many witnesses
The incredible weight of the subject matter of the resurrection in regards to all that the apostles wrote.
The importance of the Resurrection:
Christ raised therefore we will
Proof of His sacrifice being sufficient.
All those who believe in Him and his resurrection will also be raised to eternal life!
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ: What a glorious truth!
Therefore, my Beloved brethren, stand firm, let nothing move you.
“Therefore, my beloved, brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 15:58
