The major tragedy that humanity has to face is death. It is the enemy that every human being must face in at least two situations. On the one hand, death is the one that kidnaps loved ones in the family, causing the pain of separation. On the other hand, every human being must face his own death. Although this enemy often brings sorrow and despair into human life, it is the Christian faith that offers hope even in the face of death. This reason led me to address the theme of the resurrection of the dead in this paper. This theme is also presented by the apostle Paul, as an answer to one of the problems of the church in Corinth. In this paper we will present the role and place of the resurrection of the dead in 1 Corinthians, and then we will present the apostle's reasoned response to those who challenged the resurrection of the dead, and in the final part we will present the apostle Paul's perspective on how the dead will rise.
