1 Cor 9 The Power of Voluntary Surrender is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast. What if the greatest proof of your freedom is what you're willing to give up? You have rights. But what if love calls you to lay them down? In this week's episode, we step into 1 Corinthians 9 and wrestle with a hard question: Just because I can… does that mean I should? Paul proves he deserves support, authority, and recognition then willingly gives it all up for the sake of the gospel. Not because he has to. Because he loves. This chapter confronts our comfort. Our entitlement. Our desire to be served instead of to serve. Freedom in Christ isn't about self-expression, it's about self-sacrifice. It's choosing surrender over status. Discipline over disqualification. Gospel over ego. If you've ever struggled with letting go of your “rights”… If you've ever wondered what mature faith really looks like… This conversation will challenge you deeply. Love limits liberty. Love surrenders rights. And serious faith runs to win.

1 Cor 10 – Find Freedom Without Failure is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast. In 1 Corinthians 9, Paul surrendered his rights for the sake of the gospel. In 1 Corinthians 10, he gives a warning: spiritual privilege does not guarantee spiritual success. Israel saw miracles. They experienced God's presence. Yet many still fell. Why? Because experiences don't replace obedience. In this episode, we talk about: Why freedom requires humility The real danger of idolatry and pride How temptation works—and what the “way of escape” truly means (v.13) Why everyday choices reveal spiritual allegiance You can't live at the Lord's Table and the table of demons. Freedom in Christ is real but it demands watchfulness. Listen now and learn how to live in freedom without drifting into failure.

Is there any significance to the Jews coming first and then the gentiles? is it simply someone has to be first? How does this impact the Money Gentiles sent the Jews? Why does Paul care about not building on someone's foundation? It comes across as ego (Also 2Cor 10:16). Why not water someone else's seed? (1Cor 3:6) If Romans 15:27 says Gentiles owe sharing material blessings with Jews, is that putting a price on the Gospel? Something that Paul has strong views against.

Na continuidade da nossa jornada pela primeira carta de Coríntios, refletimos sobre o fato de estarmos no mundo, mas de não vivermos de forma mundana. Isso significa compreender que vivemos no mundo, mas não devemos adotar a mentalidade da presente era. Somos chamados a desenvolver uma verdadeira exegese cultural: estar inseridos na sociedade sem absorver padrões contrários ao evangelho. Jesus não orou para que fôssemos retirados do mundo, mas para que fôssemos guardados do mal, santificados e enviados por Deus. Uma pergunta precisa sempre nos acompanhar: Há muito da presente era em nós e pouco de Cristo? Devemos refletir sobre nosso relacionamento com Deus avaliando nosso desejo de fazer a Sua vontade e buscando formas de expressar nosso apreço por Ele. Isso é pertencer a Deus — ser santo. Fomos salvos pela graça e é essa mesma graça que nos transforma, nos sustenta e produz em nós a paz que o mundo não pode dar. __ #FAMÍLIADOSQUECREEM #SÉRIEEMCRISTONOMUNDO Visite nosso site: http://familiadosquecreem.com Compre nossos livros e produtos: http://familiadosquecreem.com/loja Contribua financeiramente: http://familiadosquecreem.com.br/contribuir Ouça nossas músicas: https://open.spotify.com/artist/6aPdiaGuHcyDVGzvZV4LHy Siga-nos no Instagram: http://instagram.com/familiadosquecreem Curta-nos no Facebook: http://facebook.com/familiadosquecreem Siga-nos no Twitter: http://twitter.com/familiadqc

At Bethany, We are God's People who are: Gathered! Connected! Sent!We want to connect with you through this Podcast! Leave us a comment! Tell us where you are at! Leave a Review to help our audience grow!--February 8, 2026 -- Pr. Seth Moorman -- "All In All - After All!" -- 1 Cor. 2:2-162 While I was with you, I decided to deal with only one subject—Jesus Christ, who was crucified. 3 When I came to you, I was weak. I was afraid and very nervous. 4 I didn't speak my message with persuasive intellectual arguments. I spoke my message with a show of spiritual power 5 so that your faith would not be based on human wisdom but on God's power. 6 However, we do use wisdom to speak to those who are mature. It is a wisdom that doesn't belong to this world or to the rulers of this world who are in power today and gone tomorrow. 7 We speak about the mystery of God's wisdom. It is a wisdom that has been hidden, which God had planned for our glory before the world began. 8 Not one of the rulers of this world has known it. If they had, they wouldn't have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But as Scripture says: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined the things that God has prepared for those who love him.” 10 God has revealed those things to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches everything, especially the deep things of God. 11 After all, who knows everything about a person except that person's own spirit? In the same way, no one has known everything about God except God's Spirit. 12 Now, we didn't receive the spirit that belongs to the world. Instead, we received the Spirit who comes from God so that we could know the things which God has freely given us. 13 We don't speak about these things using teachings that are based on intellectual arguments like people do. Instead, we use the Spirit's teachings. We explain spiritual things to those who have the Spirit. 14 A person who isn't spiritual doesn't accept the teachings of God's Spirit. He thinks they're nonsense. He can't understand them because a person must be spiritual to evaluate them. 15 Spiritual people evaluate everything but are subject to no one's evaluation. 16 “Who has known the mind of the Lord so that he can teach him?” However, we have the mind of Christ.http://www.bethanylutheran.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.facebook.com/Bethany.Long.Beach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/c/BethanyLutheranLongBeach

*We apologize for the lesser audio quality of the recording this week. Please bear with us as we resolve some unexpected, ongoing technical issues. Discover what authentic Christian mission looks like when powered by love in this powerful exploration of Paul's ministry principles. Learn how the apostle Paul corrected the Corinthian church not out of harshness, but from a heart of love that had built deep relational equity. This message reveals three essential aspects of love-driven ministry that every believer needs to understand.First, explore how love on mission prioritizes God's work over personal desires. Paul chose to stay in Ephesus during a season of great ministry opportunity rather than immediately visiting the Corinthians he longed to see. Like a dedicated farmer who continues harvesting during peak season, Paul demonstrates the sacrifice required for effective kingdom work. This principle challenges modern believers to examine whether they prioritize personal comfort or kingdom fruitfulness.Second, discover the critical importance of discipleship in Christian mission. Paul's relationship with Timothy shows how investing deeply in others creates disciples who can carry on the work. Timothy, despite his youth, became Paul's apostolic representative because of intentional discipleship. This raises two vital questions every Christian must answer: Are you contributing to God's kingdom in ways that would be missed if you were gone, and have you discipled someone to continue your work?Third, learn how to handle disagreements in ministry without causing division. When Apollos disagreed with Paul's request to visit Corinth, Paul didn't create conflict but trusted God's timing. This teaches believers that disagreement and division don't have to be synonymous, and many church conflicts could be avoided by putting disagreements in God's hands rather than insisting on being right.The message concludes with Paul's call for strength and watchfulness, correcting misconceptions that love-driven ministry is passive or weak. Instead, it requires a warlike mentality against selfishness, laziness, and strife. Love serves as the operating system that powers all authentic Christian mission - without it, even impressive ministries become meaningless.This teaching is perfect for church leaders, ministry workers, missionaries, and any believer seeking to understand biblical principles for effective Christian service. Whether you're struggling with correction in relationships, wondering about your role in God's mission, or dealing with disagreements in ministry, this message provides practical biblical wisdom for love-driven service.

At Bethany, We are God's People who are: Gathered! Connected! Sent!We want to connect with you through this Podcast! Leave us a comment! Tell us where you are at! Leave a Review to help our audience grow!--February 1, 2026 -- Pr. Kevin Kritzer -- "All in All - All Need You!" -- 1 Cor. 1:19-3119 Scripture says, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will reject the intelligence of intelligent people.” 20 Where is the wise person? Where is the scholar? Where is the persuasive speaker of our time? Hasn't God turned the wisdom of the world into nonsense? 21 The world with its wisdom was unable to recognize God in terms of his own wisdom. So God decided to use the nonsense of the Good News we speak to save those who believe. 22 Jews ask for miraculous signs, and Greeks look for wisdom, 23 but our message is that Christ was crucified. This offends Jewish people and makes no sense to people who are not Jewish. 24 But to those Jews and Greeks who are called, he is Christ, God's power and God's wisdom. 25 God's nonsense is wiser than human wisdom, and God's weakness is stronger than human strength. 26 Brothers and sisters, consider what you were when God called you to be Christians. Not many of you were wise from a human point of view. You were not in powerful positions or in the upper social classes. 27 But God chose what the world considers nonsense to put wise people to shame. God chose what the world considers weak to put what is strong to shame. 28 God chose what the world considers ordinary and what it despises—what it considers to be nothing—in order to destroy what it considers to be something. 29 As a result, no one can brag in God's presence. 30 You are partners with Christ Jesus because of God. Jesus has become our wisdom sent from God, our approval, our holiness, and our ransom from sin. 31 As Scripture says, “Whoever brags must brag about what the Lord has done.”http://www.bethanylutheran.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.facebook.com/Bethany.Long.Beach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.youtube.com/c/BethanyLutheranLongBeach

Southwest Harbor Congregational Church

Biblical giving and financial stewardship are essential topics for Christian spiritual growth and discipleship. This comprehensive guide explores what the Bible teaches about money, tithing, and generous giving based on First Corinthians 16:1-4 and other key Scripture passages. Learn why God addresses money in the Bible and how financial stewardship impacts your relationship with Christ. Discover the biblical principles of systematic giving, proportionate generosity, and sacrificial worship through your finances. Understanding biblical stewardship helps believers grow in spiritual maturity while supporting church ministry and missions. Paul's instructions to the Corinthian church reveal universal expectations for Christian giving that apply to all believers today. Explore how regular, planned giving differs from sporadic donations and why first fruits giving matters more than leftover generosity. Church accountability and transparency in handling offerings are crucial for maintaining trust and proper stewardship. The spiritual benefits of giving include proving genuine love for Christ, growing in righteousness, and reflecting the Gospel through sacrificial generosity. Biblical giving is not about earning God's love but responding to the love already shown through Christ's sacrifice. Whether you're new to faith or seeking to deepen your understanding of Christian stewardship, these biblical principles provide practical guidance for honoring God with your finances. Learn how proportionate giving based on prosperity differs from legalistic tithing requirements and discover the spiritual transformation that comes through generous, cheerful giving.
