Death Destroyed
Description
This Sunday School lesson, titled "Death Destroyed," provides a comprehensive look at 1 Corinthians 15:20–58. It addresses the historical confusion surrounding the resurrection and offers a breakdown of Paul’s theological defense of the believer's future hope.
Historical & Theological Context
The Corinthian church was influenced by two major anti-resurrection views:
The Sadducees: Jewish leaders who believed in the Law but denied an afterlife.
Greek Philosophy: Viewed the physical body as a "hindrance" and only valued the immortality of the soul.
The lesson also outlines a Pretribulation Rapture perspective, viewing the resurrection as a key event leading toward the Millennial reign of Christ and the eventual creation of a New Heaven and New Earth.
