This statement makes 2 strong points about grace. The first is that we need not be bound by our upbringing. It is so important to our testimony that we stop blaming today on yesterday. But we won't do this without the 2nd point of grace, which is that we are bound by our past apart from the promise of resurrection. This is our only hope. Paul was bound (v9-11) until he met the resurrected Head. He, the Lord, raised him to new life. The world will always think it incredible that God raises the dead (v8), except for those few who accept the gospel of God's grace!
