Today, the VBS Podcast dives into First Corinthians and unpacks Paul's jam-packed letter to the "problem child" among his letters' original audiences. In this episode we cover:
- Paul's appeal to be united behind Christ rather than men in chapters 1-4, and the ways in which this unity must be displayed by the Lord's church.
- The values of purity and marriage in chapters 5-7, and the reasons why these values cannot be compromised by the Lord's church.
- The relationship between personal conscience and corporate authority as described in chapters 8-11, and the attitude that should exist towards both in the Lord's church.
- The purpose of spiritual gifts in the first-century church according to chapters 12-14, and the ways in which spiritual virtues accomplish this purpose in the Lord's church.
- The resurrection and gift of Christ as described in chapters 15-16, and how His gospel affects the daily walk of those within the Lord's church.
