That's a compelling framework you're building. Let me think through this carefully.
You have a clear redemptive-historical arc:
The Epistles, taken as a whole, do something distinct from all four of those categories. Romans gives you the doctrinal architecture — justification, union with Christ, the Spirit of him who raised Jesus. But when you move into the broader epistolary corpus, something shifts. Paul, Peter, John, and the writer of Hebrews aren't merely teaching the resurrection as doctrine — they're applying it as the operative power for everything in the Christian life.
Here's how I'd frame it:
The Epistles — the application of the resurrection.
Or, if you want something with more theological precision:
The Epistles — the outworking of the resurrection.
Consider the range: in Ephesians 1:19–20, the same power that raised Christ is the power now at work in believers. In Philippians 3:10, Paul's consuming ambition is to "know the power of his resurrection." In Colossians 3:1, the imperative to seek the things above is grounded in the indicative "you have been raised with Christ." First Peter 1:3 roots the living hope in the resurrection. Hebrews treats the resurrected, ascended Christ as the ongoing high priest whose perpetual ministry flows from an indestructible life (Heb 7:16). First Corinthians 15 gives the fullest theological exposition, but even there Paul's concern is ultimately practical — "Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord" (15:58). The resurrection isn't left as an article of confession; it becomes the engine of sanctification, hope, suffering, ethics, and eschatological expectation.
So the complete arc would read:
Or, in a more polished form for a teaching context:
The Prophets anticipated it. The Gospels narrated it. Acts proclaimed it. Romans systematized it. The Epistles unleashed it — into every dimension of faith, obedience, suffering, and hope.
