Sometimes a good book ends with a final chapter called an ‘epilogue’.It’s not only the end of the story, it seems to give us a summary of the significance of the story and perhaps a chance to sit back and reflect on what life will be like after the plot of the story concludes.
Over the past several days you and I have been looking closely at one of the most powerful chapters ever written in any book. The 15th chapter of the apostle Paul’s first letter to the Christians in the great city of Corinth in the middle of the first century. The reason this chapter is so significant 2000 years later is that every word applies to our time just as much as it did 20 centuries ago.
