  • Answer Three: Sound Preaching Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 9, 2015
     | 6,138 views

    The Corinthian church was deeply divided. Two of the issues dividing it were a dispute over what kind of preacher should fill their pulpit, and which former minister had contributed the most to their church. This same problem exists today.

    To recap, a letter was written from the Corinthians to Paul and telling him about how divided their church was becoming. Paul answers that letter and we have it recorded as the book of 1 Corinthians. Paul offers them 11 answers to their division problem. The first answer was the cross. If the ...read more

The first answer, Paul said, was the cross. If the church would refocus on their purpose based upon the cross, the church would begin to ...read more

    If we are meek, if we are gentle, then we are God controlled. We will have to be considerate to people, and we will also be considerate toward God.

    Gentleness and meekness are basically the same. Why aren’t some people gentle? There are some who say things that set you on edge, & you’re convinced that they enjoy doing it? They come into your home & say, "Where did you find that wall-paper?" And it’s obvious that ...read more

    GOODNESS IS DOING THE RIGHT THING FOR THE RIGHT REASON

    What determines the value of something?
