Reader’s Guide: “The Word for Today” Wednesday, April 17, 2013 Read – 1 Corinthians 15:35-49 Paul moves on now to talk about what human beings will look like in the resurrection – a question that no one can really answer. Paul makes his attempt but I don’t think he was really all that successful – his argument is mostly about what we will not be like. Perhaps Paul was up against some people who were “making fun” of the idea of resurrection. In the end his argument is that the resurrection, while somewhat indescribable, is real and is essential for faith. There are many things about faith that are beyond our ability to fully comprehend and fully describe – the resurrection is one of them. But that does not make those things any less real. Paul knew he was dealing with “mystery” when he was talking about the resurrection of the dead.
