In this sermon, Benjamin Wontrop exhorts believers to view all of life in the light of Christ's resurrection. Preaching from Psalm 37 and 1 Corinthians 15, he contrasts the apparent triumph of the wicked with the enduring hope of the righteous, rooted in the resurrection. Paul's defense of the bodily resurrection rebukes the Corinthian flirtation with Greek dualism and affirms the gospel's core: Christ's death and bodily resurrection. Reverend Wontrop applies this by showing how even our ordinary actions—worship, perseverance in suffering, and moral integrity—testify to our resurrection hope. He warns against the alternative: hedonism and spiritual compromise. Rather than living as though this life is all there is, Christians must live soberly, joyfully, and sacrificially, knowing the risen Christ guarantees our future bodily resurrection and vindication. Thus, the resurrection is not only doctrinal truth but the daily engine of holy living.
