What If Christ Be Not Raised (Resurrection 1)

Summary

The sermon emphasizes the essential role of Christ's resurrection in Christianity, arguing that without it, faith, preaching, and salvation are all meaningless. The preacher explains Paul's reasoning from 1 Corinthians 15, highlighting that if Christ is not risen, believers remain in their sins and are hopeless. However, because Christ has risen, believers have true hope and assurance of eternal life. The resurrection is presented as the foundation of Christian joy, peace, and hope.
