Joe: So what can you tell me about 1 Corinthians 15?

Bible Expert: Well, Joe, this chapter is all about the resurrection of Jesus Christ and how it is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Paul is emphasizing the importance of the resurrection and how it is the basis for our hope of eternal life in heaven. He also talks about how the resurrection of Jesus gives us assurance of our own resurrection.

Joe: Whoa! Wait, so you're saying that Jesus really rose from the dead?

Bible Expert: Yes, that's right. Paul is very clear about this in the chapter - he is talking about how Jesus was seen by many people after he was resurrected, that he appeared to hundreds of people and that he was seen by his disciples multiple times.

Joe: Hold on, let me get Jamie to Google this real quick. [turns to Jamie] Jamie, can you look up 1 Corinthians 15 and tell me if it's true that Jesus rose from the dead?

Jamie: [after a few seconds] Yes, Joe, it's true. The Bible says that Jesus was seen by many people after he was resurrected and that he appeared to hundreds of people and that he was seen by his disciples multiple times.

Joe: Whoa! That's incredible! So the resurrection of Jesus is really the cornerstone of the Christian faith?

Bible Expert: Yes, that's right. Paul is very clear about that in 1 Corinthians 15 - he is talking about how the resurrection of Jesus is the foundation of our hope of eternal life in heaven, and how it also gives us assurance of our own resurrection.
