  • Summary

  • Human pride is incompatible with the character of Christ. It will never produce fruits of the Spirit in the life of Christian. Not only does it exalt its wisdom higher than God's, but it considers the Gospel way of living and thinking as foolish. In addressing the worldliness prevailing in the church of Corinth, Paul continues to put on display the Apostles way of life as a model for Christ-centered living and attitude as he confronts the church’s embrace of the wisdom of this world that has produced:

    • Misappropriation of glory to church leaders that has caused the congregation to be divided into four factions (1 Cor 1:11-13).
    • Inflated sense of status. They saw themselves as rulers over others, even rejecting the authority of the Apostles.

    In our focus text, Paul continues his use of irony (and a little bit of sarcasm) to expose the foolishness of Corinthians behavior in the church. He will remind them what is the true temperament and life of servant of God in a world hostile to its message and messengers.

    Focus Scripture: 1 Corinthians 4:9-13
