Take your Bible and be finding your place in 1 Corinthians 15, a chapter that we have been working our way through over the last several weeks. The central theme of this chapter is the resurrection, both of Christ and the Christian. The gospel is a resurrection gospel, which means we resurrection hope. That Christ is risen means we have a resurrection guarantee, and that provides us with some resurrection incentives as we live our lives now. In the verses that we now come to, Paul deals with the resurrection body. He answers two questions that are raised in verse 35, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?” He explains how our resurrection body will be an ‘upgrade’ from the one we currently have now.
