1. Lord’s Church Is Not Judaism 2. Lord’s Church Is Not A Cult

Acts 8:4-13 Samaritans were attached to a charis- matic leader: a characteristic of cults Gospel changed their allegiance (12) Characteristics of cults: Mt.23:8 Devoted to leader Control (mind / time) Double standards Emphasize money

1. Lord’s Church Is Not Judaism 2. Lord’s Church Is Not Cults 3. Lord’s Church Is Not Worldliness

Acts 18, Corinth Prosperous Religious (8:5). Influenced: GovernmentCivic festivals Trade guildsSocial clubs Daily life

In Corinth… Visiting orators... rhetorical displays  1 Co.15 Immorality was legendary  Paul established a church here? 1 Co.5 1 Co.6:9-11 (Jn.17:16)

1. Lord’s Church Is Not Judaism 2. Lord’s Church Is Not A Cult 3. Lord’s Church Is Not Worldliness 4. Lord’s Church Is Not Catholicism

Roman Catholics Deny sufficiency of Bible (2 T.3:16-17): “One must keep the commandments of God and the church” (Catechism) Claim Peter was universal Bishop, Primate of the Apostolical College, Supreme and Infallible Head of the Church. Ga.2:11-14

1. Lord’s Church Is Not Judaism 2. Lord’s Church Is Not A Cult 3. Lord’s Church Is Not Worldliness 4. Lord’s Church Is Not Catholicism 5. Lord’s Church Is Not A Denomination

1 Co.1:10-17 (Ep.1:22) 1. The precepts 1. The precepts (1 Co.1:10) Unity of speech, 1 Co.1:12 Unity of organization, 1 Co.1:2 Unity of thought, Mt.4:21 Unity of Christ, Jn.17:20-22

Lord’s unity or man’s wisdom? “Every opinion counts” “Church of your choice” “We can’t understand the Bible alike” “Unity in diversity” Say same thing No divisions Same mind Jn.17:20-22

Summary, 1 Co.1:10 What makes us one body? 1 Co.4:6, our guide What are we? One body 1 Co.10:17; 12:12-13

2. The problem 2. The problem (11) Def.: engagement in rivalry, esp. w. ref. to positions taken in a matter, strife, discord, contention (BDAG, 392) “I am of Paul…” (12) Party divisions: always sinful Baptist-Chr. Methodist-Chr. Lutheran-Chr.

3. The principle 1. The precepts 2. The problem 3. The principle (13) Is Christ divided?  Cut His body into pieces, give them to human leaders?  Corinth  Corinth: philosophical arrogance; divided into sects; exalted leaders  Church  Church: same approach??

Was Paul crucified for you?  He opposes Paulites as much as Peterites  He is not qualified to die for them

Were you baptized into name of Paul?  His followers are as unqualified as he is  Ga.3:27

4. The prevention 1. The precepts 2. The problem 3. The principle 4. The prevention (14-17) By what authority did he baptize (14,16)? Omission (Jn.6:27; 12:44). Jn.4:2 Mt.28:19, were sent to baptize… Today I did not come to baptize… Avoided pride (“I was baptized by Paul”)

A charge to elders, Ac.20:28-32 Wolves are coming:  Be narrow! (not broad-minded)  Be exclusive! (not inclusive)
