In I Corinthians 15 Paul addresses the subject of the resurrection, but in this sermon Gary Smith focuses on one short section of this chapter, verses 17-19. Here Paul tells us that without the resurrection of the dead our life is meaningless because if there is no after life, does it make any real difference how we live our lives? But there is a resurrection and those called by God to understand the holy days know a great future lies ahead of us.
