Description

A sermon given by Tommy Moore on March 6, 2022 on 1 Corinthians 4:1-21. "The root of many fractures: pride in the heart. Paul dives deeper into the root cause of there being divisions in the church. The immature Corinthians are making the mistake of judging one another with insufficient information (they can’t see the hearts of men) and using broken scales (going beyond what is written). Their inability to see that there is nothing to boast about since all things are given to them by God is evidence of their completely broken worldview which praises worldly wisdom (riches, security, power, value) with spiritual success. But then how are they to make sense of Paul and the Apostles who are poor, homeless, weak and the “refuse of all things”? This is a exhortation to humble themselves and imitate the life of Paul."
