III. The Problems of the Local Church in Corinth (cf. Acts 18:1, 8, 11) 1.Paul’s Appeal for Unity in the Church. I Cor. 1:10-30 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment (purpose, NRSV) a.There were Petty Contentions (quarrels, NIV) among them.1:11 b.There were Personal Cults among them. 1:12ff c.There was no interest in the Preaching of the Cross – it was foolishness.1:17-25

1. Paul’s Appeal for Unity in the Church. I Cor. 1:10-30 d. They Professed to be Wise and opted out of God’s Calling for them.1:24-29 i.They were Childish and Carnal: they still needed Milk and not Meat. 3:1-3, 4 ii.They Chose their Ministers; they should know these were Complementary. 3:5-9a

2. Paul Argued for the Adoption of the Wisdom of the Word and not the Wisdom of the World. I Cor. Chs. 2-3 a.Preaching should not be with Excellent and Enticing words but with the Power of the Spirit. 2:1-5 i.The Spirit’s Wisdom vs. the World’s Wisdom.2:6-10 ii. God’s Wisdom vs. Man’s Wisdom.2:11-14 iii. Have the Lord’s Mind, i.e. the Mind of Christ to learn all things.2:15f cf. Phil. 2:5-8

2. Paul Argued for the Adoption of the Wisdom of the Word and not the Wisdom of the World. I Cor. Chs. 2-3 b. Service likened to the building of a Structure. 3:9b-15 i.There is only one Foundation to build on – Jesus Christ, and Paul has laid it.3:10a, 11 ii.There are only two Forms of Service Structure.3:12 iii. It will be tested by Fire with two Results – one Rewarded and the other will suffer loss but will be saved. 3:13-15 c. Know these two Foundational Facts: 3:16-23 i.Ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? – You are Sanctified. 3:16, 17 ii.Ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.3:18-23 – You are Secure and Safe.

3. Paul was Appalled by their Tolerance of Incest in their midst.I Cor. Ch. 5 a.They were Puffed up with their Inaction.5:1, 2, 6 b.They did not use their collective Power to Incise the leaven. 5:3-5 c.They needed to Purge out the Leaven Inside the Lump.5:7, 8 d.They needed to Part company with those who are Immoral, Idolaters, etc.5:9-13

4. They Accused one Another in Court. I Cor. Ch. 6 a.Such accusations should be brought before the Court of Saints and not Sinners.6:1-4 b.It was Shameful that these Surfaced – no one was prepared to Suffer wrong!6:5-8 c.They were Sanctified; hence they need to behave like Saints and not Sinners.6:9-11 d.Their bodies are the Spirit’s Dwelling – they will be Destroyed, if Defiled. 6:12-20 cf. 3:17

CONCLUSION: Responsibilities of being a full-fledged independent assembly: - (1) Towards God: God-Glorifying, Christ- Centred, Spirit-Stimulating and Bible-Based. (2) Towards Self: Self-supporting and Self- propagating, Self-governing (3) Towards Subversives: Receive them not neither bid them God-speed. II Cor. 11:12-15 cf. II Jn Acts 20:28-31

C ONCLUSION : Responsibilities of being a full-fledged independent assembly:- (1) Towards God. (2) Towards Self. (3) Towards Subversives. (4) Towards Others: reach out to..... a. Sinners with the Gospel, I Cor. 9:22 "by all means save some" b. Sister-churches, in Consideration, Consultation and Communion (Fellowship); c. Such as those who Call on the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ – Greetings and Salutations: "Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.“ I Cor.1:3
