Title: Studies in 1 Corinthians (54)


1
Studies in 1 Corinthians (54) Christ, the
Firstfruits from the Dead 1 Corinthians 1520-28
2
Now Christ is Risen (20-23)
  • Christ, the firstfruits
  • Firstfruits, the first in a set
  • Found 8 times in NT, Rom. 823, 1116, Jas. 118

3
Now Christ is Risen (20-23)
  • Was Jesus first to be raised? NO!
  • He WAS first to be raised, never to die again.
    He demonstrated what is in store for us.

4
Now Christ is Risen (20-23)
  • In Christ all shall be made alive
  • Adam contrasted with Christ

5
Now Christ is Risen (20-23)
  • Adam contrasted with Christ
  • By man (Adam) death came (Gen. 319) physical
    death
  • By Man (Christ) resurrection (physical) will come
  • There IS a spiritual resurrection (but not in our
    text) cf. Rom. 512-21

6
Now Christ is Risen (20-23)
  • Jesus conquered death and gives man hope.
  • ALL shall be made alive John 528

7
Now Christ is Risen (20-23)
  • Order of the resurrection
  • Christ First
  • Afterwards, those who are Christs at His coming
    - John 528, Matt. 2531-46, 2 Thess. 16-10
  • Then comes the end no 1000 year reign, separate
    resurrections, etc.

8
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • There WILL be an end!
  • ????? (telos) Final event, conclusion
  • 2 Pet. 310-12, 1 Thess. 415-18NO events in
    between!

9
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • WHEN He delivers the Kingdom to the Father
  • WHEN in comparison to what? The end
  • It must be in existence

10
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • WHEN He puts an end to all rule, authority and
    power
  • WHEN ? Consider Matt. 2818
  • Does Jesus have all authority now? Acts 236,
    Eph. 120-22

11
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • For He must reign until ALL enemies under His
    feet
  • He must reign ßas??e?? (basileuo) one ruling as
    a king
  • A present tense verb NOW! Consider Col. 113,
    Matt. 1619, 28, Mark 91 etc.

12
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • For He must reign
  • How long? Until ALL enemies put under His feet!
    Psa. 1101 (Acts 234, Heb. 113). Also Psa.
    86 while dealing with all men it demonstrates
    dominion!

13
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • ONE enemy remains
  • Death! The last enemy
  • Friends, people are still dying! John 528-29
  • To deny the resurrection was to deny His power
    over all things.

14
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • The Father exempted
  • God obviously NOT under Him
  • Implies that ALL other things are! (cf. Phil.
    29-11)
  • But God is STILL God! Supreme, sovereign, etc.

15
Then comes the end (24-28)
  • Our text
  • NOTE This does not deny the deity of Jesus!
  • This text defeats premillenialism
  • This text defeats realized eschatology!

16
  • Do you believe in the resurrection?
  • Are you ready for that day?
