Because Christ Is Risen

In this sermon, Dr. Cornelis Venema looks at 1 Corinthians 15:12-34, 50-58, highlighting the vital importance of the resurrection of Christ. He emphasizes that without the resurrection, Christian faith would be empty, offering no hope or salvation. The victory Christ achieved over death assures believers of their own future resurrection, providing a firm foundation for eternal life. This resurrection not only impacts the believer's future but also transforms how they live today, offering strength and hope to face life's trials. Dr. Venema underscores the necessity of Christ's resurrection for salvation and encourages Christians to remain steadfast in their faith. This passage provides background for Lord's Day 14.
