Doctrine Fuels Duty

Commentators unanimously agree that this verse is the practical application of the entire chapter. The profound doctrine of the resurrection isn't just for intellectual belief; its purpose is to fuel present-day action. As scholar Charles Ellicott notes, Christianity never separates the life that now is from the life that is to come. The glorious hope of a future resurrection directly motivates our faithfulness and service today.
