    1 Cor 10:1-13 Learn From the Past Paul makes his concluding remarks here in chapter 10 still on the subject of exercising self-control and not becoming a stumbling block to others. • We have rights and freedom but watch our conduct because not everything we do is beneficial. • In the preceding ...read more

     | 1,929 views

    Paul did not use his rights because of his concern for the witness of the Gospel and the welfare of the people he is reaching out to.

    Everyone has rights. We can stand up for our rights. We ask for what we deserve. • Yet it is not always necessary for us to do so. There are times when we need to forego legitimate rights for a higher good. I came across what was trending two days ago – “Don’t Treat Us Like We Owe You a Living” – ...read more

     | 1,229 views

    Singlehood can be an option for some who are gifted by God to remain unmarried. Paul highlights the reasons for staying single - the present distress, the passing world and the pressures of life.

    Paul has been addressing issues regarding marriage and divorce. Today he ends the chapter with the last question about marriage – what about singlehood? • Is it good to remain unmarried? Is staying single alright? 1 Cor 7:25-40 ESV 25Now concerning the betrothed, I have no command from the ...read more

  • Keep The Marriage Intact Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 5, 2022
     | 1,034 views

    Divorce is a concession and not God's original intent. If separated, remain as we are. Do not initiate divorce even if your spouse is an unbeliever. Stay and bless the marriage and family, by the working of God's grace through you.

    The word “intact” is beautiful, it means “not damaged or impaired in any way.” • Keep the marriage intact, so that the marriage union is not damaged or impaired in any way. Keep it intact and complete. From chapter 7 onwards Paul was answering the questions raised by the Corinthians in a letter ...read more

     | 2,596 views

    Paul warns and urges the Corinthians to break away from their old lifestyle of visiting the prostitutes, counting their excuses with the truth of God's gift and design for sexual relations.

    As Christians, knowing God and our Saviour Jesus Christ, we live by a different code of conduct. We live by God’s standards. • They are not standards we abide by to gain God’s favour; they are standards we live by because we have been saved from sin and changed by God. • We are redeemed, forgiven ...read more

    Paul's judgment reveals the redemptive purpose of discipline - for the sinner as well as for the purity and witness of the church.

    Paul, like a spiritual father, admonishes the Corinthians whom he regards as his spiritual children. • He cares for them like a nursing mother and corrects them like a father would, urging them to walk in a manner worthy of God. (cf. 1 Thess 2:7,11) • Paul taught them in word and by his example, ...read more

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 16, 2022
     | 2,171 views

    We can learn from the words of Paul to his accusers the perspectives we need to adopt in the face of opposition in ministry. Paul understands where his authority comes from, knows to whom he is accountable, and trusts in God's final appraisal of his works.

    1 Cor 4:1-5 Being Servants and Stewards of God We have covered the first 3 chapters of 1 Corinthians over the last 10 weeks. Today is our 11th Sunday on this book. • I believe by now we have an idea of the problems the church in Corinth is facing. • Surely this is not a happy thing for Paul, who ...read more

     | 3,340 views

    We are all builders in Christ, but there is only one foundation. Watch how you build upon it and be rewarded for what remains on the day we face God.

  • Proclaiming Christ Crucified Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 3, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,166 views

    Our faith is in the testimony of God, the work of the Spirit of God and the power of God. Our faith lies in the message and not the messenger, in the work of His Spirit and power and not in human wisdom.

    1 Cor 2:1-5 1And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. 2For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, 4and my speech and ...read more

  • The Power And Wisdom Of God Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 20, 2022
     | 2,285 views

    We did not get to understand the Gospel and be saved because of human wisdom but the power and wisdom of God. There is nothing man can boast about.

    The church has been plagued by divisions, with groups taking sides and pledging their support for various leaders. • This competitive and partisan spirit was tearing the church apart. They pride themselves on men and not on Christ. • They were boasting in human wisdom, eloquence and influence, and ...read more
