hope

1 Corinthians 15:17And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. 18Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost. 19If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men.

If no one else has any real hope for resurrection either, why would we be pitied even more than they? Unless, the cost of discipleship is only worth it if there will be resurrection?

Exactly. Not much earth good to this lifestyle, at least in general, if there is nothing after.
