1 Corinthians 15: ? Really Raised, Humble Faith of Love Endures - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Brian Davies, pastor of Lord of Glory Lutheran Church in Grayslake, Illinois, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study 1 Corinthians 15.

“And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile, and you are still in your sins. [...]Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God.” With your arguing and divisiveness, you live as if Christ were still dead. Paul levels this heavy charge against the Corinthians in chapter 15 because, ultimately, everything he’s been talking about is just a spelling-out of “the gospel” itself. The creed Paul presents shows that Christianity isn’t about unique brands of doctrine or cults of celebrity personality. Living life like the resurrection is real means rejecting the way of this world. Although the way of humble love&service seems like an insufficient legacy, Christ’s resurrection ensures that our “labor is not in vain.” We don’t have to invest our lives in impressive knowledge and renowned wisdom which will pass away. We stick to the universal creeds given to the whole church, because God’s investments of love through humble faith will be brought to full form on the Last Day.
