N. Hammersley DIVISIONS 1:10-4:21 Unity is Paul's key theme…ANYTHING WHICH HARMS THE UNITY OF THE BODY OF CHRIST IS WRONG AND MUST BE PURGED! Personality Apollos Cephas Paul Christ »AUTHORITY IN CORINTH

N. Hammersley LAWSUITS 6:1-11 Chapter 5 warns against hypocrisy Heal any rifts within the community; don’t wash your dirty linen in public! As a last resort excommunication!

N. Hammersley SEXUAL IMMORALITY “Everything is permissible for me but not everything is beneficial.” 6:12… ABUSE OF MARRIAGE

N. Hammersley FOOD AND IDOLS 8-10 These idols do not exist People are eating food that has been sacrificed to idols, and it seems as if they are worshipping the old gods. Many converts find it hard to shake off the old ways… Does this mean they are worshipping the old gods? Even though these “sacrifices” are nothing, don’t do anything which may cause a weaker believer to question their faith Be responsible towards others feelings…even non- believers, they might convert.

N. Hammersley SOCIAL STATUS / WORSHIP 11 Abuse of the Eucharist Rich and poor of the community discriminating A REMINDER OF THE TRADITION AS HANDED DOWN 11:23-25 Orderly worship 14:26-39 (see Gifts)
