A Beautiful Mess Paul’s Answer to Division Extreme Servanthood (Part 1) 1 Corinthians 4

Chapter 4 Extreme servanthood involves faithful stewardship (4:1-5). A Beautiful Mess Extreme servanthood involves faithful stewardship (4:1-5). Extreme servanthood involves humble ministry (4:6-8). Extreme servanthood involves willing sacrifice (4:9-13). Extreme servanthood involves parental-like love and concern (4:14-15). Extreme servanthood involves exemplary living (4:16-17).

Extreme servanthood involves faithful stewardship (4:1-5) A Beautiful Mess

Extreme servanthood involves faithful stewardship (4:1-5) A Beautiful Mess Servants & Stewards Servant = under-rower Steward = Household manager God expects faithfulness from those who serve Him

Extreme servanthood involves faithful stewardship (4:1-5) A Beautiful Mess

Extreme servanthood involves humble ministry (4:6-8) A Beautiful Mess Do not go beyond what is written The Bible only elevates God We know we owe everything to the grace of God. As authentic servants we must serve and minister with humility.

Extreme servanthood involves willing sacrifice (4:9-13) A Beautiful Mess Corinthian believers Have all they want Full & satisfied Rich Reigning Wise Strong Honoured – eminent, glorious Paul & the Apostles On display End of the procession Condemned to death Spectacle Fools Weak Dishonoured Hungry, thirsty, in rags, destitute, cursed, persecuted, slandered The vilest of men, scum & garbage.

Extreme servanthood involves willing sacrifice (4:9-13) A Beautiful Mess Paul contrasted the self-exalting service of the Corinthians with his own and the other Apostles sacrificial living. Authentic servants willingly sacrifice when sacrifice is needed.

The Problem of Division A Beautiful Mess Follow Paul’s example and the example of the other Apostles. As we choose to serve God and each other faithfully, humbly and sacrificially, we will become more united. Authentic Christian living must result in extreme servanthood
