Lesson

• Read 1 Corinthians 15:1-11. What is the Gospel? Is that what you are spreading?

• Read 1 Corinthians 15:20-28
• Read 1 Corinthians 15:29-34. The final statement is a quotation from the Greek poet Menander. He notes that instead of maturing in the faith, the Corinthians are instead still letting pagans influence their beliefs and lifestyles.
• Read 1 Corinthians 15:35-49. The contrast is actually between a body animated by one type of life, and a body animated by another type. Our current body is run by the ordinary energy that keeps us breathing and blood circulating. Future body will be run by God’s own spirit.
