Rev. Caleb Adams, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Bend, OR, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.
St. Paul takes the Corinthians back to the basics. He reminds them of the Gospel in which they stand and by which they are being saved. The same message that St. Paul received he had preached in Corinth: Christ died, was buried, was raised on the third day, and appeared to many witnesses, including St. Paul himself. Although he was the least of all, by the grace of God, he worked harder than all so that the Corinthians would believe.
“Nothing But Christ Crucified” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the epistle of 1 Corinthians. In response to correspondence from the Christians in Corinth and reports about matters arising in the congregation, St. Paul writes to address various matters of Christian faith and life. Throughout it all, he directs our attention to the power and wisdom of God for our salvation: Christ crucified.
