We only have four verses left in chapter 6, and so far Paul has put into the Scriptures how he had to deal with the Corinthian believers, that he was always clear and concise with them, and it was always with love. In 1 Corinthians, one of the standout chapters is chapter 13, the love […]
So far in chapter 6, we’ve seen Paul give a defense for his ministry. We know that he has had his hands full in dealing with immaturity levels within the Corinthian church, but that he also had to contend with the false teachers who had infiltrated the congregation. This was an ongoing battle that Paul […]
So far it’s been an interesting journey with Paul and his dealings with the Corinthian believers. He’s had to correct them in their immature ways, where they would behave in the same way the world acts, and in some cases worse. Paul has had to defend his life and his ministry in the first five […]
As we finish chapter 5 tonight, a key verse that stands out from last week is verse 17: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” This speaks of a change that takes place in us once we come into God’s […]
Last week we were blessed by taking a peek into our future. We didn’t use tarot cards or a Ouija board, we looked into God’s Word. More specifically, we were reminded not by Omar the tent maker, but by the apostle Paul (whose trade was making tents), that our human tents are wearing out, and […]
We’ve been tracking Paul, taking in his recorded messages to us, which is the inspired Word of God. As we have followed him on his God-given journey, we learned not of his misfortune, but of his trials and testings, which as believers we have all experienced, just not at Paul’s level. What Paul has gone […]
When we last left Paul he was hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; he was perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed. Through the expressive words he’s using, Paul is giving us a bird’s eye view as to just what it means to be a bond-servant of […]
We ended last time at the beginning of chapter 4, reflecting on the superiority of the new covenant over the old covenant; both were given by God for His plans and purposes. The new covenant built off the old, resulting in a perfect covenant, sealed through the blood of Christ. In the new covenant, God’s […]
We’ve been talking about the new covenant being more glorious than the old, and this is all according to God’s plan. When we first become believers, God’s sanctification process begins. This is the time when we begin to grow in Christ, and we keep moving forward in our relationship with God. I think this is […]
As we begin chapter 3 of 2 Corinthians, we will discover the relationship between the Old Testament message of Law and the New Testament ministry of the Gospel of God’s grace. As I’ve mentioned before, the false teachers had the ear of the Corinthians, and they were driving the message that Paul didn’t have the […]
