Of First Importance

Song: Low In The Grave He Lay

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:1-8

"For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures..." (1 Corinthians 15:3-4; NASBU).

The gospel consists of facts to believe, commands to obey, and promises to receive...

"Of first importance" is the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ...

Die with Him. Be buried with Him. Rise with Him. See Romans 6.
