Easter (2) Part 2

THE RESURRECTION
1 Corinthians 15:12-19 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished. If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
Christ left his throne in Heaven 2 Corinthians 8:9
Born of a virgin Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:34
Lived a perfect life Luke 2:40,52
No sin could be charged to Him
Crucified unjustly Isaiah 53:10-11
Laid in a grave Matthew 27:57-60
Rose from the dead after 3 days and nights Matthew 12:40
Walked the earth 40 days Acts 1:3
Ascended into Heaven Acts 1:9
Will return as He left Acts 1:11

Resurrection of Christ is a FACT:
Paul writes 1 Corinthians 15:1-8
There were those in Corinth who denied the possibility of resurrection of dead men. Just as today many deny the possibility of a physical resurrection. Even misquoting scripture: Ecclesiastes 8:10, 9:4,5

Paul refutes these fools: 1 Corinthians 15:36-44

Because Christ rose from the dead in a new body, so also will we rise from the dead with new bodies. 1 Corinthians 15:51-58
