Join Pastor shawn and the gang at Calvary Chapel Birmingham as they study the Bible verse by verse and chapter by chapter. Today we continue our study in 1 Corinthians with chapter 10. The Goal of our study today is to recognize that Christians are not exempt from troubles, temptation nor from responsibility, and that trying to avoid difficulty can lead us away from God, not towards Him.

Today we continue our study in 1 Corinthians with chapter 8 and Paul answering the Corinthian Christian’s question about eating meat from sacrifices to idols. The goal of our study is to become sensitive to how our exercise of Christian liberty may impact other believers. By exercising our freedoms, are we edifying or are we causing confusion for weaker believers?

Today we continue our study in 1 Corinthians with chapter 7. We will look at marriage, being single, and being celibate. The goal of our study is to understand that living as God has called us is radical. Trying to be something that God has not made us to be is harmful to ourselves and to others.

Today we continue our study in 1 Corinthians with chapter 5 as Paul confronts the Corinthian church on their tolerant attitude toward blatant, unrepentant sin among them. The goal of our study is to recognize that sin is a corrupting influence and blatant sin in the church should be confronted and dealt with, sternly and compassionately. And Paul says that sometimes this means putting an unrepentant brother or sister out of the fellowship. Find out how church discipline is carried out Biblically.

Today we continue our study in 1 Corinthians with the first part of chapter 3. Our chapter will talk about spiritual infancy and maturity, carnality, and the sure foundation of Jesus Christ. The goal of our study this morning is to discover what it is that Paul says has resulted in carnality in the church and what that means to us as a body and individually.

In our study, we move from the introductions and greetings to the body of the letter. It is here that Paul is going to start really addressing those things that are bringing division in that church in Corinth. Many of those problems Paul addresses remain problems in the church of today. As we continue our study and look at many different principles, keep in mind the bottom line. The bottom line is that keeping the gospel central is absolutely important to Christian unity. We’ll recognize that trying to live the Christian life by your own smarts gets us into trouble, and has resulted in many of those things counter to scripture that can be found in the church. We’ll speak about Eisogesis and Exegesis and narcissism and what Paul means by the “foolishness” of the message.
