Spiritual People Don't Cause Divisions/Factions (1 Corinthians 3:1-23) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 28, 2022

Paul couldn't teach the Corinthians cool Spirit things because they were fleshly-- and still are. How should we view ourselves, and our leaders?

In chapter 3, Paul seems to be responding to a criticism made against him by the Corinthians. The Corinthians are upset with Paul, because there are Spiritual things that he didn't teach them. Instead, they apparently learned them from Apollos. Let's reread 2:12-14: (12) Now, we ...read more

The Glory Of The Story - 1 Peter 1:10-12 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 29, 2024

Why did the prophets search their own writings? Did they not understand what they wrote? If that's the case, what were they trying to communicate when they wrote it?

The prophets searched Scripture to find out what kind of era it would be when the Messiah would suffer and then be glorified. But they were told that it was not for them to know. We get to participate in this glorious kingdom in the Church (why would a Christian prefer the world to the Church?). ...read more
