    based on 21 ratings

    Is your ministry all polish?

    Polishing Doorknobs There is an old saying when something is futile or a waste of time and money. Doing (whatever) is like polishing doorknobs on the Titanic. I am sure that when that ship went down it had nicely polished doorknobs but they didn’t stay that way long under water. The loss of ...read more

    If The Bible Be Hid

    Contributed by Ray Geide on Feb 9, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,626 views

    How the Bible is hid today and who it is hid to.

    2 Corinthians 4:3 says, "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost." The gospel and the Bible are hid to those who are lost because they have not heard it. But that is not the only problem. There is something else that hides the gospel and the Bible and hides it to much more ...read more

    Spiritual Leadership Series

    Some groups put The Pastor on a pedestal as God’s annointed, a spiritual super-star to be admired and honored. In our passage today Paul sarcastically shreds this un-Christlike view of leadership.

    Spiritual Leadership 1 Corinthians 4 Most American Christians are soft. Our crosses are pretty jewelry, not instruments of brutal death. They warmly decorate our houses rather than warning of suffering. Particularly in the suburban Bible Belt, our versions of Christianity depict sanitized pictures ...read more

    Lesson 8: Watch Out For Pride Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 1, 2010
     | 3,988 views

    Pride is a sneaky thing. It's the default program for humans and is at the root of the problem in Corinth, and often at the root of our problems as Christians.

    The American Heritage Dictionary defines sarcasm as: "A form of irony in which apparent praise conceals another, scornful meaning." An example might be to someone who is always late and you say to them: "Oh my, you're right on time!" Now if I told you that the Bible has several excellent examples ...read more

The underlying issue, we noted, was the tension between the church and Paul, ...read more
