Really good! Christian love is seeking the best joy, rather than smaller selfish joys. Just as Jesus endured the cross because of the joy set before him, we too love others because of the true joy and love in it.
And Christian obedience is not mere duty. Does it honor a wife when the husband gives her flowers out of duty? No it honors her when it is out of an overflow of his love for her.

Wow it is very good, 1 Cor 15 shows that Christians should be living in a way that if Christ wasn’t raised from the dead, their life was pitiable, super convicting, as someone who lives a very comfortable life. I need to ask for the Lord‘s grace to help me do more for Christ
