Scripture Index: 1 Corinthians 15:3-17; (Rom 10:9; 1Co 15:20-28)

Many many times I have stood in amazement at the greatness of this 15th chapter of Corinthians, as I have at all the Word of God. But how remarkably beautifully magnificently the 15th chapter follows upon the 14th. And I've taught you before that the 12th, 13th, and 14th just set like diamonds; and yet somehow or other the 15th brings to a fruition, to a culmination, to a synthesis that of which 12, 13 and 14 only lay the pattern or the groundwork for. In the 15th chapter of Corinthians you have the great first and second revelation, uh resurrection as well as the gathering together of the church. And I'd like to begin reading with you tonight from this great 15th chapter with the third verse.

I am only too sorry again that our second edition of Are the Dead Alive Now has not been published. We need to get it published. We need to get it circulated across the United States so that people get an accurate understanding of all these great truths that are involved. Listen to the third verse of 15, 1st Corinthians:

[1 Corinthians 15:3] For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
[14] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

You see how he lays the great pattern, the foundation of all truth: namely that Christ died for our sins, and that God raised him again, and he rose again on the third day according to the scriptures, and that:

Verse 5: He was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

I imagine Cephas, as in your center reference, Peter. It might have the word Peter in your center reference, does it in any of yours? Some of the bibles have it others do not. I am still not sure whether that's Peter or whether it isn't. But I'm sure of one thing, it's Cephas. So I think the commentaries all say it's Peter. I'm not sure if it's Peter or not but I'm sure of one thing it's Cephas. Now then of the 12,

Verse 6: After that [after that], he was seen of [about] above [or more than] five hundred brethren [at one time] at once; of whom the greater part remain [even] unto this present, but some [of those 500] are fallen asleep [at the time the revelation of 15 of Corinthians was given to the apostle Paul].

Verse 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
[8] And last of all he was seen of me also, [as one] as of one born out of due time.
[9] For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
[10] But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
[11] Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
[ 0402A - https://youtu.be/oSB0sDk9s4o ]
I often marvel at this tremendous truth in here: of how in the resurrection body, in his resurrected body Jesus Christ was seen of all of these and finally and last of all he said he was seen of me also as one born out of due time. I hear people today many times, or not many times, but a number of times. I just heard it again from someone this week who called on the phone and discussed some things with me. And they told me that they had had a vision of Jesus, they'd seen him. And I said 'you're nuts' and then I felt bad about what I said, you know, I just that quick I had revelation that he was lying, and so I quickly said it. The next minute my senses took over and I felt sorry for what I say. You ever been this way? I don't know if you get it. But look I want to tell you something when Jesus appears to somebody that Jesus is no fool and when he appears to somebody it's not going to be to somebody that had the type of revelation this fellow said that he had because I know my Word of God better than that. When Christ makes himself known in manifestation where you really see the Lord, I want to tell you something that man is going to be turned on or that woman's going to be turned on.

Sure Paul saw him, but where in the world do we get the idea that every Tom, Dick and Harry; and every little nincompoop running around here has to see Jesus? We got the Word. But you know something? People are, get so off the beaten track, that they think that they can impress me with the revelation they get because they say they saw Jesus. They ought to know I operate discerning of spirits.
