Bible Quote Apr 21st 1 Corinthians 15:55-57

““Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” - 1 Corinthians 15:55-57

A problem with academia is the promise of the sure result, is not matched with the truth, that every result must be continuously defended. And ancient Greece was the home of academia. Paul went to Corinth and shared his life as a Christian. And Paul returned. Frustrated. Hurt. Explaining again and again what he had meant as Corinthians split hairs.
But the result is a pure distillation of Paul’s message.
Here we are told Christ's sacrifice was more than forgiveness of sins, but reconciliation with God. And from that we have a hope, a promise for a future. We have the earliest biblical account of the resurrection of Jesus.
