unmoveable always abounding in the work of the lord forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the lord 1 cor 1558 the lesson as a whole approach to the lesson our brief survey of 1 corin thians has shown us that it is not a great doctrinal treatise like romans or galatians it deals largely with questions of conduct and order but it has a doctrinal section to which we now come and it is one of the most important doctrinal state ments in the whole bible it deals with the doctrine of the resurrection the resurrection of christ and the resurrection of believers friends and foes alike have recognized that the resurrection of christ is the cornerstone of the christian faith if that goes everything which makes chris tianity distinctive and unique is lost if the resurrection of christ can be done away with we must abandon belief in his deity and content ourselves with a divinity which we can equal ly claim for ourselves his death can have no atoning value be ing at best a tragic martyrdom the whole concept of the priest hood of christ will have to be abandoned and the entire bibli cal eschatology regarded as no more than fanatical dreamings there is no blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our great god and saviour jesus christ no gathering together unto him at his coming no future for this world except what may be carved out for it by everfailing man death is still unconquered and our hope of immortality is a delusion the importance of this theme then cannot be exaggerated a strong victorious faith must rest not simply on one who lived and died but on one who died and lives unless he has overcome death not simply in the sense of the survival of per sonality and in the dominance of his memory but in the sense of complete conquest robbing death of its hold over the whole man we may have in jesus an other in the line of great re ligious teachers but not a sa viour but now is christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept 1 cor 1520 vers by verse 1 cor 153 i delivered i also received christ resurrection see isaiah 539 for the third day see jonah 117 hosea 62 often regarded as a prophecy of christs resurrec tion is a forced reference verse 5 seen of cephas twelve notice pauls omis sion of the appearing to the women since peter cephas was the first public witness to the resurrection the appearing to him is given first in the list verse 6 above five hun dred brethren the greater remain some are fallen asleep this may have been the great meeting in galilee ar ranged by the lord even before his death matt 2632 it was to be expected that more than twenty years after the event some of the five hundred should be gone but enough remained to make the testimony valid verse 7 seen of james all the apostles this is doubtless james the brother of our lord who became a pillar of the church in jerusalem are the twelve of verse 5 and all the apostles of this verse the same company grosheide thinks that paul gives the word apostles a wider reference here verse 8 last of me also one born out of due time the child untimely born is pauls way of express ing his personal unworthiness as a member of the group privil eged to see the risen lord yet it subtly lays claim to a place in the family verse 42 sown in cor ruption raised in incorrup- tion so marks the answer to verse 35 following the anal ogies of verses 3641 the figure of sowing grain is continued as there is a connection between what is sown and what grows from it and yet they are vastly different so in the death and resurrection of the body verse 43 dishonour glory weakness power with dishonour compare the body of our humiliation in phil- ippians 321 asv verse 44 a natural body spiritual body nat ural means pertaining to the soul the argument is that if the nonmaterial man has a body which is a suitable instrument for expressing himself on the lower level soulical psychical there must be a body which is sented bur it has a bearing on a suitable instrument for ex pressing himself on the higher level spiritual verse 45 the first man adam a living soul the last adam a quickening spirit see genesis 27 and john 521 the last adam is of
