    Paul encourages the Corinthians believers and reminds them of God's gifts and grace that He bestowed on them.

    The name Jesus Christ is mentioned ten times in the first ten verses of 1 Corinthians. I think Paul did this because he wanted the minds of the Corinthian believers to be immediately centered upon Jesus Christ. He knew that the answer to the Corinthian problems didn’t lay in his ability ...read more

    In Paul's letter to the Corinthian believers, he reminds them that the philosophy that they brought with them into the church was no longer the philosophy that they were to live by. There was wisdom in the cross.

    Jesus said, He will build his church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. However inner turmoil and division by the saints to groups within the church can greatly hinder the mission of the church.
