Sermons on Corinthians:

Preserving The Union

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jan 23, 2020

Paul urged the Corinthian church to preserve their unity in Christ at all costs. We learn from him to work quickly through conflict, appreciate our differences, and know what unites us.

1 Corinthians 1:10-18 Preserving the Union If you ever find a perfect church, join it, and it will no longer be perfect! And if you ever feel bad about the state of your church or the state of the church in America today, just read the Bible book of 1 Corinthians! These folks had lots of problems, ...read more

Stop Sleeping With Your Step Mum Series

Contributed by Andy Moyle on Feb 24, 2016

The Corinthians were Paul's favourite church, but what a mess! Sexual sin was rife, including one young man sleeping with his step mum. So Paul has a fight on his hands...

In the middle of what I think is Paul’s second most combative letter to one of his churches. The first is Galatians – where he is tackling the issue of Judaizers who want to take the believers away from grace and back to the law. The Corinthians were going the opposite way. They had ...read more

Address Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 3, 2018

Paul's call to the office of an Apostle had nothing to do with personal merit; he says instead that he is "an apostle by the will of God," and this is what constitutes the ground of the authority he claims in the Corinthian Church.

Lesson 1.1: Address Scripture 1 Corinthians 1.1-1.3 1 Cor 1:1-3 (KJV) 1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother, 2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all ...read more

How Does Personal Spiritual Growth Connect To The Church? Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Sep 30, 2020

Paul closes out his second letter to the Corinthians with a plea from his heart for their spiritual growth. Why do we today so seldom see that at a practical level in our churches?

- I should note as we begin that v. 8 is a difficult verse. Its meaning is not clear. It’s not essential to grasp that verse in order to be able to understand the larger point that Paul is making, so we’re just going to lay it aside this evening. There’s not any benefit tonight in spending a ...read more
