  • #46 of 66 Books
  • Part of the New Testament

What is written? (ESV)

And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.

What does it say?

God will raise us by His miraculous power, just like He raised His Son.

What is its immediate context?

Paul is addressing the brethren of Corinth that are relatively new to the faith. He lists several sinful practices of the “unrighteous” (vss 9-10) – practices that some in Corinth had taken part of but had turned from them in their conversion. He turns to focus specifically on sexual immorality, stating, “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.” (vs 13)
