"First Things First” - 1 Corinthians 15:20-26 - (May 8, 2022 - 4th Sunday in Easter)

Grace Alone Online

During the last four weeks we have heard our Lord's resurrection from eyewitnesses, from "doubting" Thomas, from the women who ran from the tomb bewildered and afraid, and on this 4th Sunday after Easter, St. Paul speaks about the last enemy, death, which will be destroyed upon our Lord's return. Paul offers us an additional two perspectives on the resurrection. One, he describes as a "battle" won over the "enemy" death. We are used to such a description. But Paul leads us to look at the resurrection through Jewish eyes in a way that connects us more intimately with our Lord. Find out what this is!
