Honor Such Men

Christians must steward their honor diligently and refrain from giving honor reserved for good and Godly people, to the wrong people.

The Spirit of Christ In the Community of His Saints

Unity isn’t a baseless idea. It comes from a common gospel experience; meaning it comes to us from a shared experience of redemption. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life and our unity is founded on the common hope and faith in this reality. We are all together, in Christ, now truly alive and on the path of God in the confidence of the truth of the gospel.

Living and Dying In Christ

The dualism of the Christian life is found in Paul’s Predicament: life or death…either way there is victory.

Encouraged and Encouraging

The Christian life is one of gospel partnership and proclamation, love for others, knowledge and discernment, sometimes strife and persecution, but all for the glory of God. In all this, we are called to be faithful and joyful citizens of Christ’s kingdom.

Finally

Much of the mess in the Corinthian church could have been avoided if they had merely obeyed Paul's five final commands to be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong and act in love.
