The Hope of Christ’s Victory

In a world where evil often seems to be winning, it is easy to despair and wonder whether anything we do really matters. The closing section of 1 Corinthians 15 lifts our eyes to Christ’s ultimate victory, when death itself will be “swallowed up in victory” and our mortal bodies will put on immortality. Jesus shares that victory in 3 ways with every person who puts their faith in him, and his generosity is worthy of our response of “always abounding in the work of the Lord.”
