The Paul was NOT a fan of church members taking one another to small claims court.

There were 12 original, hand-picked disciples of Jesus until Judas died by suicide. After he died, Peter said, “Boys, there has to be 12 so we need to fill this vacancy!” So they chose two men who met the qualifications to be an apostle, “they had to be with Jesus from the beginning when he started his ministry and they had to witness his resurrection.” Mathias was chosen to replace Judas by casting lots. Guess who wasn't there?!?! The man who was persecuting these Jesus followers—Saul who later became Paul! So there is a good reason for the people to question his authority...or is it? Paul saw Jesus and was commissioned by him to take the gospel to the Gentiles, and just like the original disciples, Paul was confirming his message with miracles. Yet, Paul continued to humble himself in order to win others to Christ!
In 1 Corinthians 3, Paul holds up a mirror to a church that thought it had arrived. They were sophisticated, theologically informed, spiritually experienced. They gathered around impressive teachers and prided themselves on their wisdom. They were, by all appearances, doing quite well.But Paul's assessment? "You are still worldly—mere infants in Christ."__________Get more out of today's teaching by visiting our Church Online page for things like our community guide, a weekly devotional, and the teaching slides.

We all sacrifice something for the sake of something else — but what are you willing to give up for the sake of the gospel?

Enjoy our morning devotion from our daily Bible reading. Today's Bible reading is found in the title of each morning's devotional.
'So be careful not to jump to conclusions before the Lord returns as to whether someone is a good servant or not. When the Lord comes, he will turn on the light so that everyone can see exactly what each one of us is really like, deep down in our hearts. Then everyone will know why we have been doing the Lord's work. At that time God will give to each one whatever praise is coming to him. 'I have used Apollos and myself as examples to illustrate what I have been saying: that you must not have favorites. You must not be proud of one of God's teachers more than another. What are you so puffed up about? What do you have that God hasn't given you? And if all you have is from God, why act as though you are so great, and as though you have accomplished something on your own? 'You seem to think you already have all the spiritual food you need. You are full and spiritually contented, rich kings on your thrones, leaving us far behind! I wish you really were already on your thrones, for when that time comes you can be sure that we will be there, too, reigning with you. Sometimes I think God has put us apostles at the very end of the line, like prisoners soon to be killed, put on display at the end of a victor's parade, to be stared at by men and angels alike,' (1 Corinthians 4.5-9, TLB). In 1 Corinthians 4, Paul addresses the issues of pride, division, and spiritual arrogance within the Corinthian church. He reminds believers that church leaders are not celebrities to be ranked or compared, but servants of Christ and stewards of God's truth. The primary requirement for a steward is not popularity or human approval, but faithfulness. Paul urges the Corinthians to think of him, Peter and Apollos as mere servants of Christ entrusted with the secret things of God. A servant does what his master tells him to do. We must do what God tells us to do. We must do what God tells us to do in the Bible and through His Holy Spirit. Each day God presents us with needs and opportunities that challenge us to do what we know is right.

Christ has set us free from sin, yes, but do we have freedom? Can we do anything we want? No! And this is Paul's point in chapter 8. If a weaker believer sees another believer eating in the food court at the pagan temple, they may believe it is OK for them to do the same thing, but in doing so, they have violated their conscience because they believe it is a sin to eat meat that was used in a pagan sacrifice, which Paul says is a sin. Not only is it a sin for the one violating their conscience, it is a sin by the one who caused the weaker believer to stumble! This is why Paul says, “If eating meat is going to cause others to stumble, then I simply won't eat meat.”

Series: 1 Corinthians (2026)Service: Wednesday Bible StudyType: Bible ClassSpeaker: Mike Brenneman
In this episode, Mark and Cindy begin an in-depth exploration of 1 Corinthians, discussing Paul's transformation from persecutor to apostle, the identity and calling of God's people and the rich grace believers have received through Jesus Christ. We examine the historical backdrop of Corinth, the meaning of sanctification and Christian fellowship, and the faithfulness of God in equipping, sustaining, and preparing His people for the return of Christ. Through verse-by-verse commentary and a few reflections from respected Bible scholars, this discussion highlights the believer's calling to holiness, gratitude, steadfast faith, and deeper communion with Jesus.

We keep trying to “improve” Christianity by stapling our cultural values onto Jesus and calling it wisdom. That's how the prosperity gospel turns blessing into comfort, how progressive Christianity can shrink the kingdom into a political mirror, and how conservative Christianity can blend holiness with power, nationalism, and scripts that look more like capitalism and individualism than the Sermon on the Mount.We walk through those distortions without pretending the underlying desires are all bad. God does want to bless. Jesus does liberate. God does call us to holiness. The question is whether we're arriving there by the way of King Jesus or by the shortcuts of our age. The turning point is the wisdom of the cross: when Jesus defines blessing, it includes betrayal, scarcity, and suffering held inside God's faithfulness. That wisdom “harbors no additions” because it is revelation, not projection. It's God showing us what God is like in Christ.From 1 Corinthians 2 we talk about the Holy Spirit as God's gift, freely given, granting access to the mind of Christ. Not as spiritual trivia or a way to win arguments, but as practical wisdom for Christian living, spiritual formation, and decision-making under pressure. We also face the painful question of why some hearts stay closed and what our role really is. The answer is both humbling and freeing: we are witnesses, not saviors, judges, or attorneys. We testify with words and with lives shaped by love, and we pray, “Come, Holy Spirit.”If you've been stuck in performance pressure, shame, or anxiety loops, listen through the end and try the simple practice we name: “I have the mind of Christ.” If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find it.Support the show

Packinghouse's Sunday morning worship service from June 7, 2026. In 1 Corinthians 6, Paul addresses two practical issues that were creating problems in the church: believers taking one another to court and the misuse of sexual freedom. He reminds Christians that God has called His people to live differently, resolving conflicts with wisdom and grace rather than bringing disputes before unbelievers. Paul also warns against lifestyles marked by unrepentant sin, while emphasizing the transforming power of the gospel: “such were some of you,” but through Christ believers have been washed, sanctified, and justified. Turning to the subject of sexual immorality, Paul teaches that our bodies belong to the Lord and are temples of the Holy Spirit. Because believers have been redeemed at the highest price—the blood of Jesus Christ—we are called to honor God with both our bodies and our lives. - Ed Rea - Sunday, June 7, 2026
Something about a handwritten note hits different. It can carry encouragement across decades, drop you back into a moment, and remind you that God was working even when you did not see it. That idea becomes the doorway into Paul's letters to the Corinthian church, where care and correction sit side by side, and where real spiritual growth gets tested in everyday life.We dig into 1 Corinthians 3 and the sharp contrast between milk and solid food. Spiritual age and spiritual maturity are not the same, and time in church is not the same as becoming like Jesus. We talk about how conflict reveals what is really controlling us, why Matthew 18 pushes us toward reconciliation, and how jealousy, gossip, and retaliation expose immaturity. We also walk through the fruit of the Spirit as a practical growth marker, and we ask a question that gets uncomfortably specific: can we feed ourselves spiritually through prayer and Scripture, or do we live only on Sundays?From there, the conversation turns outward to discipleship and mission. The call is not to stay comfortable in the light, but to go and make disciples starting with our neighbors and moving toward the hard places. Jamie Bridges connects Matthew 7 and 1 Corinthians 3 with a memorable warning: storms test foundations, and fire tests materials. If our foundation is Christ, what are we building with, and will it last when life gets loud?If you want a clear, biblical framework for spiritual maturity, Christian discipleship, and building a faith that holds up under pressure, listen now.

As a believer, you have been given a gift so extravagant that its value is beyond anything you could imagine. God's grace provides everything you need to follow him, sustains you through every season of life, and assures you that you are his. It is a gift you could never earn and never deserve, yet it fills your heart with thankfulness. Because God is faithful, you can trust his promises and wait with hope-filled expectation for Christ's return.
There's a church that might sound familiar to you. Members were dividing into rival camps built around celebrity pastors. A sex scandal had come to light, and many were simply dismissing it as irrelevant. Christians were suing fellow Christians in public court. The church had completely lost its witness to the outside world. Spiritual gifts were plentiful, but people were using them as status symbols to fuel pride and competition. Political and social divisions were tearing relationships apart. Some members were even openly questioning core Christian beliefs, including the resurrection of Jesus.Sound like a headline from this week? Perhaps a mega-church scandal you read about recently?This is actually the church at Corinth—2,000 years ago.__________Get more out of today's teaching by visiting our Church Online page for things like our community guide, a weekly devotional, and the teaching slides.

This chapter challenges Christians to think differently about holiness, identity, and how we live in the body. In this verse-by-verse Bible study, we discuss: Why believers should seek wisdom and reconciliation instead of lawsuits against one another The kinds of lifestyles that keep people from inheriting the kingdom of God What Paul means when he says, "such were some of you" Being washed, sanctified, and justified through Christ Christian freedom and its proper limits The seriousness of sexual sin Why our bodies are members of Christ What it means that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit "You were bought with a price" and how that changes the Christian life This chapter reminds us that salvation is not merely about forgiveness—it is also about transformation. Because believers belong to Christ, they are called to honor God not only with their beliefs, but with their bodies, choices, and daily conduct.
