"Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized for them?"John and Brandon study 1 Corinthians 15:29 and its strange reference to baptism for the dead, exploring what Paul's argument reveals about bodily resurrection, the coherence of Christian practice, Christ's victory over death, and the hope of God's final renewal of all things.
