Book excerpt: A Church Divided The church in Corinth was divided, and Paul, their founding pastor, found himself defending his ministry to them. False teachers had begun spreading lies accusing Paul of selfish motives. But Paul saw this division for what it was—a threat to the gospel of Jesus. Paul wrote this second letter to remind the Corinthians how he’d worked among them. He wasn’t defending himself—he was defending the gospel by placing both himself and the Corinthians under the authority of Jesus Christ. His humble approach is a model for every ministry leader today. LifeChange LifeChange Bible studies will help you grow in Christlikeness through a life-changing encounter with God’s Word.

Download or read book Sermons in 1 2 Corinthians written by R. J. Rushdoony and published by Chalcedon Foundation. This book was released on 2023-06-09 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rushdoony’s Sermons in First and Second Corinthians are the last of his Biblical commentaries—delivered shortly before his passing—but it represents a fitting close to his teaching ministry. He said Paul’s letters are difficult to preach on because they speak to the sins of Christians, and with the church at Corinth, the long list of sins included division, strife, injustice, immorality, doctrinal error, and the abuse of the sacraments. Despite their many transgressions, the apostle Paul still addresses the believers at Corinth as saints and referred to their gathered community as the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. They were still Christ’s embassy on earth. They could still develop into a greater training center for Christian action. This is why Paul’s letters to the Corinthians are relevant to the church today, and it’s also why Rushdoony’s sermons on these two epistles are invaluable to us now. Rushdoony was criticized for his ecclesiology, but only because he always saw the greater fact of God’s advancing Kingdom, and the church as the equipping center for the saints. Rushdoony’s fresh application of Paul’s warnings and admonitions will help Christians, pastors, and churches to free themselves of the same sins and return to the church as an embassy of the Kingdom. THE NEED FOR A GODLY SOCIAL ORDER “The church could not hope in time to rule the world if it could not rule itself. It was thus very important for Paul to bring the Corinthians back into obedience to God’s law, among other things.” The apostle Paul was an envoy to the ekklesia of Jesus Christ—those who are called to establish God’s Kingdom on earth. Therefore, the importance of his patience, correction, and instruction could not be diminished if he were to be faithful to the One who sent him. The church is Christ’s embassy to earth to reclaim what belongs to Him. Against the backdrop of a history filled with hatred for God and hatred of all that is holy, our greater calling is the establishing of a godly social order, and this commentary by Rushdoony is a welcomed text to help equip us for that great responsibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At age nineteen, Paul Light began his ministry in evangelism and pulpit supply. He married on his 25th birthday in 1952 and eventually had two children. His first pastorate began in 1953 at Jellico, Tennessee as a bi-vocational pastor. He served there for sixteen years, during which time they built a new church building. It took nine years to complete and was debt free. In 1969 he moved his family to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he took a job as an accountant. About seven months later he became a pastor in Latonia, Kentucky where he ministered for 21 years. During that time the church building was completely renovated. Beginning in 1979 Pastor Light took a total of seven tour groups to the Holy Land. Soon after that he began missionary tours to different countries, some lasting as long as six months. The tours included preaching, building, and evangelism. His specialty, however, was teaching in Bible Colleges and Seminaries. He has made at least 25 missionary tours. Even at age 86, he is still engaged in missionary tours of teaching. During the past thirty years, Dr. Light has been writing Study Guides and Commentaries on nearly all of the books of the Bible. Some of these are variations of approaches to Bible Books such as his Comparative Gospels, the Miracles of Elijah and Elisha, The Apocalyptic Books (Daniel and Revelation) and Characters of the Old Testament. He uses his books as teaching texts for the classes he teaches both abroad and in the United States. Enjoy your Bible study on 1 & 2 Corinthians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you think that 1 and 2 Corinthians are somebody else’s mail, then you need to think again. Paul wrote them for you and he wrote them for me. Right from the outset, his goal was far bigger than the city walls of Corinth. He copied them to “all the saints throughout Achaia” and to “all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” They are God’s message to believers in any local church in any place at any time. They describe the kind of church God can use. God inspired the Bible for a reason. He wants you read it and let it change your life. If you are willing to take this challenge seriously, then you will love Phil Moore’s devotional commentaries. Their bite-sized chapters are punchy and relevant, yet crammed with fascinating scholarship. Welcome to a new way of reading the Bible. Welcome to the Straight to the Heart series.
Download or read book 2 Corinthians Book I Chapters 1 4 written by Randy Green and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The -Heavenly Citizens- series serves as a tool to help the Christian understand not only what the Bible teaches us, but also how to study the Bible. Explaining what the Bible teaches is like giving someone a fish to eat. Teaching him how to study the Bible is like teaching someone how to fish so he can feed himself. Both approaches are essential to developing spiritual maturity. -2 Corinthians- is the thirteenth volume in the -Heavenly Citizens- series. The Apostle Paul begins with a greeting from God to the Church in Corinth. Then he slowly enters the fray, wanting to tone it done a bit so as to promote communication in that church. Paul's first letter to the Church of Corinth wasn't well received. His rebellious spiritual kids didn't take to his discipline, so they dug in the heels and sided with the heretics who invaded the church in Paul's absence. Papa Paul opened his heart to his spiritual children, hoping with all his heart to turn away from the heretics and back to the Lord Jesus as their King. What heresies were there in the Church of Corinth? Ah, that is the subject of our books on this second letter to the Corinthians. They included lots of strange noises in the church services, a rejection of the physical resurrection of Messiah Jesus and all believers soon to come, as well as several other issues. For a thorough understanding of these issues, we invite you to come inside and join the Bible class with us. We plan to delve into each and every heresy and get to the bottom of it. After all, we wouldn't want to go through the same mess in our church today, would we? The approach for -1 Corinthians-, and for every volume in the -Heavenly Citizens- series, is to teach the student the meaning of Scripture. We also teach him or her how to study the Bible on his/her own. We do this in two ways: we provide a few rules by which to govern our Bible study, and we demonstrate by example how to study the Bible. Experience is an outstanding teacher. In our books we practice the rules for Bible study. By walking through the Bible with us, the reader experiences firsthand what our method of study is like. We believe the student will come out of our studies with both an understanding of the Bible and the ability to truthfully understand the Bible on his/her own. The path lies before you. Walk through the gate and join the journey with us! And may the blessings of the Lord Jesus Christ be yours in abundance.

Download or read book A Commentary on 1 2 Corinthians written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Were it not for problems in the church at Corinth, we might never have had Paul's teaching on marriage and celibacy, supernatural gifts, the resurrection and, above all, his sublime description of Christian love. We have just two of the four letters he wrote to them. They reveal his major concerns for his converts - to see them mature as individuals and to integrate them properly into Spirit-filled fellowships. Follow-up was essential to New Testament evangelism. In the second, Paul reveals more than ever of his personal experience, his constant perils, his feelings (delight and disappointment), his reactions to rivals, his humiliations and his boasting - in short, the inner life of the apostle.
