In This Sermon:
⚰️ Death. Burial. Resurrection. Three simple words hold the entire Christian message. In week 2 of "What Is the Gospel? An Introduction to the Christian Faith," Pastor Jacob Van Sickle unpacks 1 Corinthians 15 to show why Jesus's death, burial, and resurrection aren't just historical facts — they're the story your own life is now wrapped up in.
🔑 In this sermon you'll learn:
✝️ Why Jesus's death "in accordance with the Scriptures" was prophesied centuries in advance
🪦 Why the burial of Jesus matters — historically and spiritually — for you
🌅 What the resurrection means for death itself, not just for Jesus
👥 How eyewitness testimony (then and now) supports the resurrection claim
📜 What it means to have "received," to "stand," and to be "being saved" by the gospel
