20 But the
fact is that Christ did actually rise from the dead and has become the first of
millions[a] who will come back
to life again someday.
21 Death
came into the world because of what one man (Adam) did, and it is because of
what this other man (Christ) has done that now there is the resurrection from
the dead. 22 Everyone
dies because all of us are related to Adam, being members of his sinful race,
and wherever there is sin, death results. But all who are related to Christ
will rise again.
Footnotes
- 1 Corinthians 15:20 the first of millions, literally, “the
firstfruits of them that are asleep.”
16-20 If
corpses can’t be raised, then Christ wasn’t, because he was indeed dead. And if
Christ weren’t raised, then all you’re doing is wandering about in the dark, as
lost as ever. It’s even worse for those who died hoping in Christ and
resurrection, because they’re already in their graves. If all we get out of
Christ is a little inspiration for a few short years, we’re a pretty sorry lot.
But the truth is that Christ has been raised up, the first in
a long legacy of those who are going to leave the cemeteries.
21-28 There is
a nice symmetry in this: Death initially came by a man, and resurrection from
death came by a man. Everybody dies in Adam; everybody comes alive in Christ.
But we have to wait our turn: Christ is first, then those with him at his
Coming, the grand consummation when, after crushing the opposition, he hands
over his kingdom to God the Father. He won’t let up until the last enemy is
down—and the very last enemy is death! As the psalmist said, “He laid them low,
one and all; he walked all over them.” When Scripture says that “he walked all
over them,” it’s obvious that he couldn’t at the same time be walked on. When
everything and everyone is finally under God’s rule, the Son will step down,
taking his place with everyone else, showing that God’s rule is absolutely
comprehensive—a perfect ending!

Thinking
Out Loud – Journal Thoughts/Prayers / Mind Maze Overflow
Catching bits and pieces of the televised divorce slander
proceedings between Jonny D. and his what should have never been wife but now
ex-wife Amber H.
Lessons learned I know my ex-husband Tim should have never
been my husband to start. Even during the
courtship right up through the wedding day the volatility that transpired. And somehow, I was just hooked and thought things
would change. Or I could work myself
through it.
Not sure what anyone really thinks in the moment much less
me. When we are attracted to self-inflicted
pain. Oh, later finding our way trying
to swim out of total destruction.
I wish both of those involved the true blessing of God. But not to fill the pockets or more fame that
defames us in the end anyway.
The world loves misery for company. And the slayers that find nothing wrong
defaming each party just for a little bit of something is absolutely wrong.
Trying to build a case pointing out each other’s faults and
yeah, I get it one is suing for 100 million and the other 50 million and that is
pocket change for their bank accounts but absurd in the world of middleclass. Especially when both of those people are
just people that chose a career that the world pays more for entertainment than
anything good and decent.
My thoughts and perspectives. It does not matter if you agree to agree or
agree to disagree. We all get to choose
what we say, what we do and what we think about.
Just curious
what we do after we fall? My own story
I almost didn’t make it. I swore if I
were to ever get married it would be once and forever.
Two years in I was fighting for my life to just
survive. No big secret, my first
divorce yep did it twice. Was uncontested
and nothing I would wish on anyone. I
walked away with nothing but the clothes on our backs.
Crazy how that all works.
Life is what it is. The second time
I married I married a childhood friend who about a year after my first divorce
helped me get back on my feet and I felt an obligation after 4 years of being
together I owed him at least the yes. He
was always my friend, but I was never in love with him.
Unfortunately, after years together he went and found
someone to be in love with him I guess.
Choices…
Man, I can go on and on about what our choices would of,
should of, could have been.
Instead, I am far from perfect and so blessed to even get
a glimpse of love and lost because I was on the wrong track. Then never know any at all.
I would have never been where I am today had I not lived through
the lessons of life even if when they were happening. There was no schooling going.
Fame, fortune, make the world and everyone of us in it
crazy. We make idols out of common women
and men. Forgetting we are no different
just the jobs we choose and how we handle whatever comes out the end.
We forget to never stop loving people for who they are. Instead, we chase what they do, and think we
can get scraps they throw in the waves or autographs going by.
We are all easily swayed.
I know I have my favorites and absolutely adore some and at times have
easily become crushed or pressed when I learn they are just human. All the while putting on a façade for the world’s
kaleidoscope.
I am blown away how this cancel cultural that screams for justice
slowly or expeditiously has lost so much moral value for their own lives all
the way they present the vulgarities of the human nature. All the while they try to convince others to
think like they do.
We as long as we are allowed back up dare to choose to be
different. Dare to hold that moral
compass and drive onward shining any light we are blessed to share.
All paralyzed in
our own isolations of what is or what we think will be.
Me or you its all the same. We either believe or we do not. We either try to make it happen in our own
time and doings or we give it to others to do for us. We either allow Jesus in and to take the wheel
of life or we recklessly find our way wherever the stops derail us into our own
abyss. Sometimes landing us in dark
waters and others looking out across the waters.
One thing for sure.
Life is our choices but the depths of our souls. Well, we all get to
choose that eternal peace and golden streets of brightly lined jewels lighting up
the heavens with no more hate, no more sickness. Or we get to endure the repeating process of
thorns and flesh constantly melting away into nothing but the shadows of screams
in our minds.
I pray anyone I ever come to know never take anything for
granted. No matter what is, what was or
what could be.
No matter what hurt, what was right or what will be
wrong. No one loves us like you
God. And for this you sent your only son
to die so we can live. Nothing can change
that but our acknowledgement within our own souls.
May all I am connected then, now or any future I may
have. Come to know your blessings.
Be with those who are cooking in the fire of this day and
all that has transpired.
