    Stewardship is what you do with all of your life. Paul made a strong point about judging that touches both the lost and the complacent church goer.

    November 25, 2001 1So look at Apollos and me as mere servants of Christ who have been put in charge of explaining God’s secrets. 2Now, a person who is put in charge as a manager must be faithful. 3What about me?

    Be faithful, stick to what’s been revealed to us in God’s Word and rely on God’s power to bring the growth.

    There’s an old Indian Fable I heard recently. A water bearer had two large water pots which he carried on either end of a pole slung across his shoulders. One of the pots had a crack in it, so every day as he carried water to his master’s house he arrived with one full pot and one only half full. ...read more

    Is the "spiritually superior" attitude that the Corinthians had similar to the attitude found in the American church today?

    The Corinthians’ Situation: 1. The Problem: They were living proudly in their spiritual superiority. - vv. 8-13. - Paul points out their pride in their superiority and their position, all of it (from their perspective) a sign of the hand of God. In reality, though, they were far from where God ...read more

    Lesson 8: Watch Out For Pride Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 1, 2010
     | 4,031 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.

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

    What does it mean to serve Christ? Paul talks about servant-leadership in this passage and calls for humility among those who think they are wise and brilliant enough to lead the church.

    THE TRUTH ABOUT SERV ING CHRIST Whenever a title like this is used several thoughts go through our minds: “You mean there is something false about the way we serve?” “There’s a ‘truth’ I didn’t know about?” “Is this something new?” To set your minds at ease I must confess that this is nothing new ...read more
