The Corinthian Christian fellowship had its fair share of problems - division between the leaders as well as partisanship in the assembly, and one Christian was engaged in behaviour that was shocking even to outsiders and bringing the fellowship into disrepute. Some Christians were consulting non-Christian lawyers to settle their disputes, and ambition was causing division within the fellowship such that some Christians were being negated. There was also a degree of disorder when it came to celebrating the Lord’s Supper and to manifesting spiritual gifts. Some were even denying that resurrection existed.
In this verse-by-verse commentary, Rob Laynton explores how the Apostle approached these very practical problems. In the process he draws out principles for today’s Christians and their leaders as they seek to live a godly life day-by-day.
The study is available as a 400 page paperback from Amazon
