Paul’s Arrival in Corinth Acts 18:1-3 Cosmopolitan Commercial Corrupt

1 Corinthians 9:24-27 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it. 25 Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. 26 So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. 27 But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

1 Corinthians 2:2-3 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling

Paul’s Ministry in Corinth Acts 18:4-8

2 Corinthians 11:9 And when I was with you and was in need, I did not burden anyone, for the brothers who came from Macedonia supplied my need. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.

Philippians 4:15 And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only.

When I see one conversion, I do not envy Gabriel his throne or angels their harps. --Spurgeon

Jesus’ Assurance in Corinth Acts 18:9-11 Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people. And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

1 Corinthians 2:3 And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling

Jesus’ Assurance in Corinth Acts 18:9-11 Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people. And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

I have many people in this city. I have many jewels hidden in this cesspool, and Paul, you're My man to pull them out. --MacArthur

When I preach I regard neither doctors nor magistrates, of whom I have above forty in the congregation. I have all eyes on the servant maids and the children. And if the learned men are not well pleased with what they hear, well, the door is open. --Luther

The Opposition in Corinth Acts 18:12-17

What do we learn? We've got to work together There will always be opposition

1 Corinthians 16:9 …for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries. 2 Timothy 3:12 Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted

What do we learn? We've got to work together There will always be opposition Your strength is from the Lord Be faithful to your calling

I cannot do it alone! The waves dash fast and high; The fog comes chilling around, And the light goes out in the sky. But I know that we two shall win in the end-- Jesus and I. Coward, and wayward, and weak, I change with the changing sky, Today so strong and brave, Tomorrow too weak to fly; But HE never gives in! So we two shall win--Jesus and I! --Crawford
