The Centrality and Reality of the Resurrection

Do you wonder what happens after one dies? Is there really nothing for us on the other side, as many of the ancients or as the modern evolutionist says? Or is there life beyond the grave and if so, what is that life like? This sermon answers the first question because in the same way everyone dies - ancient or modern - everyone also seeks hope - and HOPE is found in the gospel of Jesus Christ. What is the gospel - the good news of Jesus Christ - and how does the gospel give us hope in the face of the seeming finality of death? Paul gives us a clear answer from 1 Corinthians 15:1-28, where we learn first that Christ rose from the dead, and that He did so in order that in Him all will be made alive, bodily, after death. Those who trust Christ Jesus have hope in the face of death and look forward to the resurrection because the Lord is Risen!! He is risen indeed!
