Why it is so important we affirm Jesus' body's death: because there is no atonement nor resurrection without this.
Exegesis: What Jesus' dead body gains for believers: the assurance that their sins are paid for (vv. 28-30), redemption is undeniable (vv. 31-37), and baptisms are effectual (in resurrection power) (vv. 38-42).
Further application: The Christian's transformation in the light of Jesus' death: we are to reckon ourselves dead to sin and alive to God.
