God's Comfort
Join us as we explore Paul's message in 2Corinthians 1:1-24, focusing on how God's comfort in our suffering prepares us to comfort others. The post 2Corinthians 1v1-24 God of All Comfort appeared first on Calvary Chapel Crossover.
Gratitude is the appreciation we feel when someone does something kind to us or for us. There are two factors that effect the intensity of gratitude. First, there is the deservedness factor. Say you do a favor for your neighbor. A month later, your neighbor does a favor for you. You are grateful, but not overwhelmingly so, because you deserved his help to some degree. However, if you have been an unkind or selfish neighbor, and yet your neighbor provides help when you are in need, you are extremely grateful precisely because you know you are undeserving. Second, there is the generosity factor. Imagine you pick up the mail for your neighbor for the three days he is out of town. When he gets back, he gives you a hundred-dollar bill. You might protest, “This is too generous!” He insists, and so you are very grateful.Apply this to God. Deservedness. How deserving are we of his blessing? What does God owe us? Generosity. What has God done for us? What blessings has he given us now? What blessings has he promised us in eternity? As we answer those questions, we are stunned by the undeserved generosity our God has shown us. The effect? We overflow with gratitude.
Todaywe're continuing to look at Ephesians 2:10. We are talking about the good worksthat are produced after salvation in our lives through the ministry and work ofthe Holy Spirit. “God working in us both the will and to do of His goodpleasure” (Philippians 2:13). We always need to remember we are not savedby good works but we're saved unto good works and for good works for the gloryof God. James 2 makes it really clear that we're justified before God by faith,but before men, and even the assurance that we have of our own salvation, isthe fact that we have a faith that works for us and in us and through us andproduces good works because faith as he says at least three times in verses 14through 26, that “faith without works is dead”. TheBible speaks of many different kinds of works. There are the “works of thelaw” in Galatians 2:16. There are the “works of the flesh” that arelisted in Galatians 5:19-21. There are the “works of darkness” in Romans13:12 and Ephesians 5:11. There are the “dead works” in Hebrews 6:1 thatlead to death. Then there are the “works of righteousness” in Titus 3:5that refer to religious works, or in other words, good deeds that we think cangive us our salvation and make us holy before God. But remember Isaiah declaresthat all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags in God's sight (Isaiah 64:6).My friend, if our righteousnesses are filthy, oh, what must our sins look like? Theworks that Paul's talking about in Ephesians 2:10 here have two specialcharacteristics. First, they are good works in contrast to the works ofdarkness and wicked works. If you contrast Ephesians 2:10 and Ephesians 2:2,you'll see that the unbeliever has Satan working in him and therefore his worksare not good. Because the believer has God working in him, therefore, his worksare good. His works are not good because he himself is good, but because he hasa new nature from God and because the Holy Spirit works in him and through himto produce these good works. My life verse has been Philippians chapter 1:6: “Beingconfident of this very thing that He who has begun the good work in you, Hewill perform it. He will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ”. Itis sad today that so many believers put a little emphasis or no emphasis on theworks of the believer because they don't want to mix it up with works andsalvation. But the Bible makes a big deal about our works in Matthew 5:16. “Letyour light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorifyyour Father which is in heaven”. We don't perform good works to glorifyourselves but to glorify our Father which is in heaven. The apostle Pauldesired that Christ would be magnified in his body even if it meant death.Philippians 1:20-21. We should “abound to every good work” (2Corinthians 9:8). We should be “fruitful in every good work” (Colossians1:10). We are “equipped by God for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:17). Weshould be “zealous unto good works and maintain them” (Titus 2:14). Wefind also in Hebrews 13:16 that our good works are actually “spiritualsacrifices that we offer to God”. It'simportant to note that we don't manufacture these good works. They're theresult of God working in our heart. Paul said, "By the grace of God, Iam what I am" . My friend,when you truly have been born again and the Spirit of God lives in you, therewill be good works produced in your life for the glory of God and others willsee it and magnify God and many will believe. Rememberour good works are evidence that we have been born again. "Not everyonethat says unto Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but hethat does the will of My Father which is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21).Our good works are also testimonies to the lost (1 Peter 2:12). Our good worksthat are produced by the fruits of the Holy Spirit in us will also win us theright to be heard.
For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends. - 2 Corinthians 10:18
But as you excel in everything-in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in our love for you-see that you excel in this act of grace also. - 2 Corinthians 8:7

What does it really mean to give generously and why does it matter? When Paul asks for money for the Jerusalem collection, he's doing more than asking the Corinthians to donate. He's inviting them to express their faith, restore broken trust, and unite with their spiritual family. If you've ever wrestled with when, why, or how much to give, this message will help you see giving in a whole new light.

FRUITFUL FERTILITY | Holistic fertility support, Trying to conceive, Fertility coaching
Infertility can feel like the deepest kind of weakness — like your body has failed you, your prayers are unheard, and you're left behind. But Scripture tells us something radically different. In this Fruitful Fertility episode, we dive into 2 Corinthians 12:9 and explore how infertility is not a sign of neglect from Christ, but an opportunity to experience His strength in your weakness. You'll hear: ✨ Why Paul's words in 2 Corinthians 12:9 are so powerful for women walking through infertility. ✨ How weakness is not failure, but the exact place where God shows up most. ✨ Why your infertility is not proof of God's absence, but a sacred space for deeper connection with Him. ✨ Gentle encouragement for the days you feel unseen, unheard, or “too weak” to keep going. If you've ever asked, “Where is God in my infertility?” — this episode will remind you that you are not forgotten, and His power is made perfect in your weakness.

2 Cor 3v5 - "Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God,"Having personal fellowship and encounters with God brings us to a place of complete dependence on Him. That is the greatest preparation for ministry

In this episode of Ryan & Brian's Bible Bistro, Ryan and Brian explore the concept of "glory" in Paul's writings, building on Brian's paper on 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 and insights from Haley Goranson Jacob's Conformed to the Image of His Son. They dig into the theological depth of doxa (glory) and its implications for Christian life.Key Points:What is Glory? The Greek doxa (glory) and doxazo (to glorify) are central in Paul's writings, especially in 2 Corinthians 3-4. Glory is more than splendor—it's tied to honor, authority, and God's redemptive acts.Old Testament Context: The Hebrew kavod (weight) links glory to reputation or ruling authority (e.g., kings, the temple). God's glory appears in theophanies (burning bush) or redemptive acts.Paul's Framework: Paul echoes Psalm 8 and Genesis 1-3. Humanity was created to rule creation with glory (Psalm 8), but sin led to its loss (Romans 3:23). In Christ, believers are restored to “functional glory” (Romans 8:29-30).Key Texts:Romans 8:18-30: Believers are co-heirs with Christ, glorified to rule in God's kingdom.2 Corinthians 3:18: Transformation into Christ's image with ever-increasing glory.Daniel 7:9-14: The Son of Man receives glory and authority.Romans 1:21-23: Humanity exchanged God's glory for idols.Implications: Glorification is both now (living out God's kingdom) and future (consummated at Christ's return). Believers reflect Christ's cruciform glory through service (Philippians 2).Why Listen? This concise yet rich discussion unravels Paul's theology of glory, connecting Old Testament roots to Christian calling. Perfect for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Scripture.Support Us:Visit thebiblebistro.com to listen, share, or donate.Leave a review on Apple Podcasts or like to boost our reach.Share with friends to spread the conversation.
