The meaning of Death and the Image of Christ in 1 Corinthians 15

Apr 27, 2026

Today our message is the transformation from death into the image of Christ in 1 Corinthians 15. In this study the nature of the death is identified, along with an analysis of statements made by William Vincent on the covenant transformation into the image of Christ per 2 Cor. 3:18, while he denied the same covenant transformation into the image of the heavenly One, i.e. the Lord from heaven in 1 Cor. 15.
Vincent sees one as covenantal change, and the other as biological change. We will examine and test the accuracy of his interpretation.
This lessons should assist in better understanding the correlations between 1 Corinthians 15 and 2 Corinthians 5 relative to the death and life antithesis/transformation.
