In writing 1 Corinthians, Paul faced the challenge of a church established in the truth but rife with disunity and sin, influenced by a decadent pagan culture in its city. As he encourages the faithful, confronts the wayward, and answers pressing questions, Paul gives us some of the most beloved passages in the New Testament alongside some of the most challenging. It is a letter that deserves our careful study.
In volume seven of this series, Alistair Begg examines Paul’s defense of a pillar of the Gospel message: the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the promised resurrection of His church. Though skeptics call it into doubt and minimize its place in the church today, the resurrection is attested by evidence and undivorceable from biblical doctrine. By considering it, we may enrich our knowledge of the good news and ground ourselves in the promise of life with God forever through the redemption of Jesus Christ.
