"Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?"John and Brandon study 1 Corinthians 15:29 and its strange reference to baptism for the dead, exploring what Paul's argument reveals about bodily resurrection, the coherence of Christian practice, Christ's victory over death, and the hope of God's final renewal of all things.
Finding Hope in a Broken World Preacher: Tim Maddock Date: 19/07/2026 Series: Finding Jesus Reading: 1 Corinthians 15 Our world can feel pretty hopeless, whether it's global uncertainty, health struggles, or the reality that none of us escapes death. But what if we've been settling for a hope that's far too small? Tim explores 1 Corinthians 15 and what Jesus' resurrection might mean for us today.

"Do not be misled: ‘Bad company corrupts good character.’” — 1 Corinthians 15:33 Who has the loudest voice in your life? Your friends? Social media? Podcasts? Influencers? Or God's Word? In this episode of Everyday Joy, Ash is joined by Shaylee to unpack Paul's warning in 1 Corinthians 15:33 and explore why the voices we listen to matter more than we often realise. Together, they discuss how the people we surround ourselves with—and the content we consume—can slowly shape our beliefs, values, and relationship with God. Ash and Shaylee reflect on the influence of social media, navigating difficult theological conversations, and the importance of knowing Scripture well enough to discern truth from opinion. They also share why healthy community isn't about isolating ourselves from the world but intentionally choosing people who point us towards Jesus. This conversation is a reminder that spiritual growth doesn't happen by accident. The voices we consistently allow into our lives will either strengthen our faith or slowly pull us away from it. That's why God's Word must always remain our foundation. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting opinions, struggled to know who to trust, or wanted to grow in biblical wisdom and discernment, this episode will encourage you to guard your heart, stay rooted in Scripture, and surround yourself with voices that lead you closer to Christ.

1 Corinthians 15:50–58 (ESV) 50 I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit thekingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Behold! I tell you a mystery. Weshall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. 53 For thisperishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality. 54 When the perishableputs on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” 55 “O death, where is your victory? Odeath, where is your sting?” 56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Therefore, mybeloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.

Missionary Evangelist Robert Breaker goes to the gospel AGAIN to show that the blood is certainly found there, even though there seem to be more and more in these last days erroneously claiming that there's no blood in 1 Cor. 15:1-4. WARNING: YOU JUST MIGHT GET SAVED IF YOU LISTEN TO THIS VIDEO! : )
1 Corinthians 15:42–49 (ESV) 42 So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable. 43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45 Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so also are those who are of the dust, and as is the man of heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 49 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven.HAVE COURAGE! THE LIFE WE HAVE KNOWN IN THE LIKENESS OF ADAM, PALES IN COMPARISON TO THE LIFE WE WILL KNOW IN THE LIKENESS OF CHRISTLike Adam We Have Been Sown In Perishing, But In Christ We Will Be Raised Imperishable. Like Adam We Have Been Sown In Dishonor, But In Christ We Will Be Raised In Glory.Like Adam We Have Been Sown In Weakness, But In Christ We Will Be Raised In Power.

What is Most Important? - 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 - Stephen Watson
1 Corinthians 15:35–44 (ESV) 35 But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?” 36 You foolish person! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. 37 And what you sow is not the body that is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain. 38 But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body. 39 For not all flesh is the same, but there is one kind for humans, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish. 40 There are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is of one kind, and the glory of the earthly is of another. 41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory. 42 So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable. 43 It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.WHAT YOU UNDERSTAND SHOULD STIR AWE, WONDER & ANTICIPATION OF GOD'S PLANS, WHICH WE CAN'T FULLY COMPREHEND.

Because of Christ's resurrection, our work for the Lord has eternal significance. Though our time on earth is brief and ministry can often feel difficult, unnoticed, or fruitless, God sees every act of faith, service, obedience, and gospel ministry. While our earthly bodies will not last, the work we do for Christ will carry into eternity, resulting in eternal rewards,. Therefore, believers should remain steadfast, making sacrificial choices that reflect their hope in the resurrection. Keep serving faithfully, work hard for the Lord, and stay focused on eternal things. Invest your life in what truly lasts, without becoming attached to the temporary things of this world.
1 Corinthians 15:29–34 (ESV) 29 Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf? 30 Why are we in danger every hour? 31 I protest, brothers, by my pride in you, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die every day! 32 What do I gain if, humanly speaking, I fought with beasts at Ephesus? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” 33 Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.” 34 Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

“If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.”…we should be living in such a way…with our obedience, our worship, our risk-taking out of faith, our selfless loving and serving other people, our bold proclamation of the gospel, our denying our flesh, our giving of our time and resources, pursuits, desires, decisions out of trust, living that is diametrically different than the world…where if we were to one day find out that there is no resurrection from the dead when this life is over, we would look like the most foolish people to ever live! And I fear…I fear for myself and for other believers…that we are living in such a way, where IF it were to be proven that there is no resurrection…our lives would look exactly the same…not pitiable at all, the same as everyone else in the world. Believers, we should be living in such a way… where the ONLY explanation for the decisions we make and all our behavior… is that I will be raised from the dead when this life is over!
Anthony Gammage preaches on 1 Corinthians 15:20-34 on Sunday, June 7, 2026.
What are you hoping for? A change in your circumstances? Healing for someone you love? A brighter future? We all place our hope in something—but what if true hope reaches beyond this life?This week, Julie Coleman takes us into 1 Corinthians 15, where Paul reveals the foundation of Christian hope and why the resurrection is essential to the gospel itself. Listen and discover the hope that changes everything.
How to Have Hope When Death & Fear Feel Overwhelming 1 Corinthians 15:50–58 is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast. When life feels uncertain, where can you find a hope that cannot be shaken? In this week’s episode of the Riot Podcast, we conclude our journey through one of the most powerful chapters in all of Scripture 1 Corinthians 15. In these final verses, Paul reveals a breathtaking truth that changes everything: because Jesus Christ rose from the dead, death does not have the final word. The world is filled with uncertainty, suffering, loss, sickness, and fear. Many people spend their lives trying to avoid thinking about death or searching for security in things that cannot last. But Paul points believers to a greater hope, one that is not rooted in circumstances, emotions, or wishful thinking, but in the victory of the resurrected Christ. In this episode, we explore: Why every believer must be transformed to inherit God’s eternal Kingdom The mystery Paul reveals about Christ’s return and the resurrection What it means to be changed “in the twinkling of an eye” Why immortality is central to Christian hope How Christianity offers transformation, not merely self-improvement Why Christians can face death differently than the world How Jesus removed the sting of death through His victory over sin The ultimate victory believers have through Christ Why resurrection hope produces steadfastness, courage, and purpose today How to remain faithful when fear, suffering, and uncertainty feel overwhelming Paul’s triumphant declaration still echoes through history: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” Because Jesus conquered the grave: Fear does not have to control you Death does not have to terrify you Suffering is not meaningless Your future is secure in Christ Your labor for the Lord is never in vain The resurrection is not merely a future promise, it is present hope. It changes how we face loss, hardship, uncertainty, and even death itself. If you’ve ever struggled with fear about the future, anxiety about death, or questions about eternity, this episode will encourage your heart and strengthen your faith. Because Christ is risen, hope is alive.

What would the Christian faith be like if Christ had not been raised from the dead? It's hard to imagine what that would be like, but we can assume that such a worldview would be devoid of power and hope, relegated only to teachings about morals and good behavior. In today's reading, Paul addresses those within the church who say that Christ was not raised and that there is not resurrection from the dead. Declaring such a faith to be pitiable, Paul moves on to talk about the coming resurrection, reassuring the church that Christ's resurrection guarantees our resurrection. The change that occurs between one's earthly body and one's heavenly body can be compared to a seed that is planted in the ground which sprouts something very different. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

“After that the end will come, when he will turn the Kingdom over to God the Father, having destroyed every ruler and authority and power. For Christ must reign until he humbles all his enemies beneath his feet. And the last enemy to be destroyed is death.” (1 Corinthians 15:24–26 NLT) When we lose a loved one, there’s a time and place for mourning. The depth of our sorrow is an indication of the depth of our love for that person. But there’s also a place for rejoicing if that loved one is a believer because we know we will see them again. Even Jesus wept at the tomb of Lazarus when He saw the devastating power of death. Death is an enemy, although one whose fate is already determined. The apostle Paul wrote, “After that the end will come, when he will turn the Kingdom over to God the Father, having destroyed every ruler and authority and power. For Christ must reign until he humbles all his enemies beneath his feet. And the last enemy to be destroyed is death” (1 Corinthians 15:24–26 NLT). No one wants to die. After all, this life is all we know. No one looks forward to the end of it. But the reality is that we all will die. That’s why it’s important to put our faith in Christ before we enter eternity. It’s also important that we not lose sight of what awaits believers when we die. The Bible doesn’t offer pictorials of Heaven, but it does provide some tantalizing descriptions. Paul was given a glimpse of Heaven and tried to put his experience into words. “I was caught up to the third heaven fourteen years ago. Whether I was in my body or out of my body, I don’t know—only God knows. Yes, only God knows whether I was in my body or outside my body. But I do know that I was caught up to paradise and heard things so astounding that they cannot be expressed in words, things no human is allowed to tell” (2 Corinthians 12:2–4 NLT). (We’ll explore this passage further next week in our study of 2 Corinthians.) You’ll notice that he used the word paradise to describe what he saw. Paradise is a Greek word that refers to the royal garden of a king. Think about the most beautiful garden you’ve ever seen. If you’re not into gardens, think about the most amazing sight you’ve ever laid eyes on. That’s the depiction of Heaven Paul gave. He was saying, “I don’t really have the words for it, but it was like a paradise.” As Pastor Adrian Rogers put it, “The God who sculpted the wings of the butterfly, blended the hues of the rainbow, and painted the meadows with daffodils is the same who made Heaven.” In Heaven all questions are answered, all tears are dried, and all pain is gone. Heaven is pure bliss. That’s why Paul said that he longed to be there. He saw for himself that Heaven is far, far better than earth. And that’s what all believers can look forward to.
