Ideas Have Consequences! (A Study of I Corinthians 15:12-19)

Friends: If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know that my friend Frank (in New Jersey) and I have been doing an email Bible study for over a year. We read the same chapter every day for a week — and then send a brief email of encouragement to each other. We’ve completed most of the epistles of the New Testament — and it’s been a great discipline for both of us.

We’re now in the book of I Corinthians. And we just started reading I Corinthians 15 on Easter Sunday! I want to occasionally post an outline of what I’m learning from my reading. Here’s my outline from I Corinthians 15:9-11:

Ideas Have Consequences! (A Study of I Corinthians 15:12-19)

I. The Consequence of Logic (v. 12)
>>> no room for exceptions!

II. The Consequence of Uselessness (v. 14)
>>> our preaching
>>> your faith

III. The Consequence of Deception/False Witnesses (v. 15)

IV. The Consequence of Lostness (v. 18)
>>> your lostness (v. 17)
>>> your loved ones’ lostness (v. 18)

V.  The Consequence of Pity (v. 19)
