The Apostles' CreedOn the Third Day He Rose Again1 Corinthians 15:1-11Dr. Derek Thomas We are continuing our studies in the Apostles’ Creed. We come this morning to that statement of the Creed in the belief in the resurrection of Jesus Christ. On the third day He rose again from the dead according to the Scriptures. I wanted to start this morning by saying that I disagreed with Dr. Duncan on some aspect of this point of the Creed. Many of you will remember that last week in my absence he said he disagreed with me on something; I'm still not sure what. But if I were to say that I disagreed with anything to do with the resurrection I think I would be in big trouble. Let's read together a wonderful statement of the resurrection of Jesus Christ as we find it in 1 Corinthians…

Easter 2003The Exaltation of Christ in the ResurrectionI Corinthians 15:1-14 If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to I Corinthians 15, as we consider the exaltation of Christ in His resurrection. During the Easter season, many Christians turn their minds to the meaning of the resurrection, and they ask questions like, “How is this significant for my life?

Ligon Duncan III We’re continuing our series in which we are studying the biblical priorities for the life of our church, and we've been asking throughout this series what are the qualities, what are the marks, what are the things that characterize a healthy local church? Now, our desire is not simply to sort of spell out the things that we are most interested in having in our local church, nor to pat ourselves on the back for having these things while other local churches don't have these things, but our main concern is to know what it is that God says characterizes a healthy local congregation as revealed in His word, and then to ask ourselves the question, “Do these things…

1 Corinthians 15:12-19“I Believe in the Resurrection of the Body” If you have your Bibles, I'd invite you to turn with me to 1 Corinthians 15. We’re continuing to work our way through to the Apostles’ Creed, and we now come to that affirmation in the Creed which says, “I believe in the resurrection of the body.” Here in 1 Corinthians 15, the Apostle Paul is dealing with some confused Corinthian Christians on this very issue. It appears that there are some people in Corinth who…
