What is the foundation of the Christian faith according to Paul?
According to Paul, the foundation of the Christian faith is the finished work of the cross: Christ died for the sins of the world, rose from the dead victorious, and by His life and death believers are justified from all things.
Les explains that this apostle defends himself over and over, and this is all he knows: Christ died for the sins of the world and rose from the dead victorious, so that by His life and death we are justified from all things. Les says that is the foundation of the Christian faith for anyone who will go to an eternity in the presence of God. Anything short of the finished work of the cross leaves people doomed to a lost eternity. Les adds that if Jesus Christ and His finished work is not the foundation of your faith, you are on shaky ground. Paul is the master builder who started the foundation, and believers build on it.
