Wednesday Wallpaper: Your Faith is Futile

Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:12-19
by Jacob Abshire on April 16, 2014

Everything about the Christian life hinges on the fact that Jesus Christ was raised from the dead. His resurrection insures our regeneration, justification, sanctification, vocation, resurrection, and glorification. Without the resurrection, none of these blessings is possible. This wallpaper reminds us why the resurrection of Jesus Christ is significant to us.

Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.
