The resurrection of Jesus Christ is a crucial component of the Christian faith (1 Corinthians 15:12-19). The Corinthians had believed the gospel of Christ which included His bodily resurrection from the dead (15:1-4, 11-12). But some among them were saying that there was no resurrection from the dead. Paul confronted them, “But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen” (vs. 13). If Christ is not risen, there are severe consequences (vv. 14-19).
