Something To Think About!

• First Corinthians deals with many important
  issues of Christianity, not the least of which is
  this classic chapter on the resurrection.
  Christs resurrection is in accord with Scripture
  and is backed up with some of the greatest proofs
  of anything in the Bible.

KEY VERSE

• Our final salvation includes the redemption of
  our bodies. Most Greek philosophers considered
  the physical body a prison and saw death as a
  deliverance from its bondage. Mention of the
  resurrection of the body brought sneers at Athens
  (Acts 1732), the same spirit that must have
  prevailed at Corinth, since it, too, was a Greek
  city. Paul viewed the literal bodily resurrection
  of Christ as foundational to salvation and as
  proof of the saintsresurrection.

• This passage touches on the very soul of worship.
  God-honoring, life-changing worship involves two
  essential elements. They are praying with the
  spirit and with the understanding also (verse
  15). God requires that we worship Him in spirit
  and in truth (John 423). Both the head and the
  heart must be touched and moved in response.

  grain apply to the believers resurrection?
