Where have we seen this language used before? (Hint: Compare with one of the Gospels) John 4:35-38 -- What was Jesus point in that verse?

What was the evidence of their carnality? What theme from Chapter 1 does Paul return to in 1 Corinthians Chapter 3? When Paul refers to planting, watering and giving the increase, what is he talking about? What does it mean? Who gives the increase? From whom did he get that imagery? How do we interpret difficult passages in a New Testament epistle? Give an example of how we did this for Chapter 3. What is the temple of God? 2. The Right and the Wrong Spirit of Service 1 Corinthians 4:1-2 What is a steward? The Greek word, oikonomos (steward) explained _____________________________ The Greek word, huperetes (servant) explained ______________________________ 1 Corinthians 4:3-5 Verse 4 is interesting what is Paul saying about himself? Consider 1 Corinthians 6:2-3 Is he contradicting himself in this epistle? What does he mean by what he is saying in 1 Corinthians 4:3-5? (Hint: note verses 1-2 and remember CONTEXT MATTERS!)

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What is an epistle? What makes them so challenging to study? What sin was identified in the Corinthian Church in Chapter 5? What about the entire situation disturbed Paul the most? What was Pauls recommendation to the church for disciplining its wayward member? How was leaven used to illustrate this principle? What does Paul say should be the attitude of the Church toward those who claim to be Christian brethren but are engaging in gross sexual immorality? 2. Holiness 1 Corinthians 6:1-2 What issue do you think Paul is addressing here? This is a very modern church problem especially in America do you know what litigation means? Paul is from a culture very different from the Greeks; the early church adapted a very Jewish method for dealing with conflicts in the church. Do you know what it is? Matthew 18:15-17 1 Corinthians 6:3-5 Note the doctrine on judging here what does it suggest about the Church? 1 Corinthians 6:6-8 What Christian idea is being discussed here? Hint: Its found in Matthew 5:23-26 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Explain how this statement refutes the false form of eternal security known as once saved, always saved doctrine. Compare this to Galatians 5:18-21 and Revelation 21:7-8 Is Paul preaching perfection of performance here? 1 John 1:8-10, 2:1 (The word translated perfect in the New Testament always refers to perfection of maturity not perfection of performance) The next verse in Corinthians adds clarity: 1 Corinthians 6:11 The law of liberty: 1 Corinthians 6:12 Does this mean we are free to do whatever we want because it is lawful? Or does it mean a different kind of freedom? John 8:32, 34-36 Again, the next several verse bring clarity: 1 Corinthians 6:13-14, 15-18, 19-20 When we are in Christ we are truly free to do what?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What is an epistle? What makes them so challenging to study? What very modern issue was addressed at the beginning of Chapter 6? What did we discover that the saints will one day judge? How does this pertain to earthly judgment? When confronted by a conflict with another believer, what is the highest Christian good? What are we not to be deceived about? Why is sexual immorality such a uniquely evil sin? Who do we belong to? 2. Specific Corinthian Questions about Holy and Unholy Relationships 1 Corinthians 7:1 Why is Paul covering the topics that make up Chapter 7? Anything unclear about verse 1? 1 Corinthians 7:2-5 -- What is one of the reasons described here for marriage? So in marriage, who owns your body and for what purpose? Exodus 20:14, Hebrews 13:4 -- Remember, marriage is a contract in which each person promises to NOT look for their needs for physical intimacy outside of the marriage! So if one spouse deprives the other they are guilty of what? 1 Corinthians 7:6-9 Paul was once married (1 Corinthians 9:5 and Acts 26:10 [Paul was of the Sanhedrin; Sanhedrin members were required to be married]) and held marriage in high regard (Ephesians 5:22-27), but in Corinth we have a group of people who are lax in sexual morals and lacking in self-control! Read and Discuss -- 1 Corinthians 7:10-11, 12-13, 14-16 1 Corinthians 7:17-24 What is the guiding principle here? This is also for all of those people who are confused and think the Bible endorses slavery. It does no such thing as this scripture shows! 1 Corinthians 7:25-28, 1 Corinthians 7:29-35 Here Paul makes his main points for the entire chapter: that we are not of this world and relationships are and therefore we seek first the kingdom of God in all relationship matters! 1 Corinthians 7:36-38 -- A confusing text, one of the worst in the Bible, but it may mean something important so lets discuss it! Interpretation Rule of Thumb We do not build essential doctrines off of stand alone verses that are not clear! 1 Corinthians 7:39-40 Remarriage for widows. Just wondering: If a widow or widower remarries, does this in any way dishonor their departed spouse? 3. Questions/Comments?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 Why are epistles so challenging to study? What prompted the list of discussion topics that Paul addressed to the Corinthian Church in chapter 7? (Hint: the first verse!) What did Paul say was one of the purposes of marriage? Why? What activity is only allowed inside marriage and therefore a part of the contract? If that is so then who does married persons body belong to? If a person becomes a Christian but their spouse doesnt, is the Christian free to divorce the unbelieving spouse? If an unbelieving spouse leaves and divorces a believing spouse is the believing one committing sin because of this divorce? Can widows remarry? Is slavery condoned in chapter 7? What is the perspective we are to keep in evaluating all relationships? 2. Specific Corinthian Questions about Holy and Unholy Things 1 Corinthians 8:1 In what way is this chapter a continuation of chapter 7? (Hint: This is an epistle and Chapter 7, verse 1 explains why it was written) What specific topic are we discussing now? Acts 15:19-20 1 Corinthians 8:2-3 What is Pauls point? 1 Corinthians 13:4-6, 11-12 , Ephesians 6:3 1 Corinthians 8:4-6, 7 What is the point here? Think about it -- It does matter what people believe! 1 Corinthians 8:8 Who first stated the same thing in the New Testament? Matthew 15:16-20 Contrast the two ways Jewish and Gentile overreacted on the food thing! 1 Corinthians 8:9-12 So what is the problem with being right on this topic? Remember these scriptures in Matthew 25:40, Acts 19:35, Romans 14:15 1 Corinthians 8:13 What higher good is emphasized here? In other words, we can be doctrinally right but we are wrong if what happens? Romans 14:20-21 3. Questions/Comments?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What is an epistle? What makes them so challenging to study? How do we interpret difficult passages in a New Testament epistle? What is the issue addressed in Chapter 8? What was the problem? Why did Paul address this issue in the first place? Is it a sin to eat meat offered to idols? When could it be? In what way are culture-specific issues so challenging? Can you think of some modern examples? What is the highest good we are to pursue when dealing with moral or doctrinal grey areas? 2. Challenging a Corinthian Injustice 1 Corinthians 9:1-2 Why would Paul ask these rhetorical questions? Do you know what a rhetorical question is? What does verse 2 seal of my Apostleship mean here? Acts18:1 1 Corinthians 9:3 Why do you think Paul need to defend himself here? 1 Corinthians 9:4-7 Remember context, read Acts 18:1-8, and explain what he is defending himself about. Consider and discuss what we have studied so far as it relates to Acts 18:1-8. Note verses 5 and 6. What do they suggest? (Several potential answers here) 1 Corinthians 9:8-10, Deuteronomy 25:4 Discuss Pauls point. How does he allude to Jesus way of thinking by quoting Deuteronomy 25:4? Matthew 23:23 1 Corinthians 9:11-14 compare to 1 Timothy 5:17-18 -- No New Testament believer can argue against paying a man of God who labors in the Word. Even Jesus had a money bag -- although Judas, a church member, stole from it. In the Old Testament the Levites and priests lived off the sacrifices of the people. But should a person become a pastor, preacher or Bible teacher simply to earn a living? In other words, only for the money it pays? 1 Corinthians 9:15-18 So what is Pauls main motive in all these things? 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 What does he mean in verses 20-22? Do we compromise our standards to win people to Christ? Explain 1 Corinthians 9:24-25, 26-27 What possibility is Paul alluding to in verse 27? Matthew 7:21-23, 24-27 and 1 Timothy 6:6-10, 11-12 3.

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What is an epistle? What makes them so challenging to study? How do we interpret difficult passages in a New Testament epistle? Why does Paul address specific issues in this epistle? Is it a sin to eat meat offered to idols? When could it be? How does 1 Corinthians 9:5 imply that Paul was married? What does First Corinthians say about paying the man of God? According to First Corinthians do people become preachers because it is a good career? 2. A warning about backsliding, Christian liberty and conscience 1 Corinthians 10:1-4 What is Paul referring to here? Exodus 17:1-6 Remember that the only Bible that existed in Pauls day was the Old Testament; this is why we need to read the Old Testament to understand the New! 1 Corinthians 10:5-6 Again this is an Old Testament example, do you know the story? Numbers 14:1, 4-6 1 Corinthians 10:7-10 Do you know the story here? Exodus 32:1-6 What is Paul implying here to these Corinthian Believers about what happened to these Old Testament Believers? Matthew 7:21 1 Corinthians 10:11-13 Nothing could be clearer, yet what do many modern Christians erroneously believe? So because that is an important issue, Paul writes the following section to explain how grace and liberty in Christ are to be practiced: 1 Corinthians 10:14-22 There are demon powers involved that will influence our lives if we commit the sin of idolatry because behind every idol is a what? 1 Corinthians 10:23 Paul here is repeating and reinforcing what he previously covered in chapter 6. Read 1 Corinthians 6:12 and note the slightly different rendering. Explain the difference and how 1 Corinthians 10:24 clarifies the difference. Always remember Romans 14:15, 20-21 and note the application here: 1 Corinthians 10:25-28 1Corinthians 10:29-33 This is the only kind of political correctness the Christian observes. The Gospel is offensive enough on its own. We should not offend in non-essentials just because legally we can! 3. Questions/Comments?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What is an epistle? What makes them so challenging to study? Why does Paul seem to change subjects so often in his epistle to the Corinthians? As New Testament believers, how does Paul say we are to use Old Testament stories? Name some of these examples mentioned in 1 Corinthians 10. Based on that, what dangerous doctrine seems to have appeared among the Corinthians? In dealing with a grey area what should always be the highest goal of the mature believer? 2. A symbol of authority and a right heart at communion 1 Corinthians 11:1 How should a Christian practice this today? 1 Peter 5:2-3 1 Corinthians 11:2 -- Paul is referring to himself as a good example to follow in contrast to the bad examples referred to in 1 Corinthians 10:6 Traditions are used in the sense here that we use standards in our fellowship churches what do we mean by standards in our fellowship? Paul is going to discuss two traditions established in the Corinthian church: Veils on Women and Church Communion Service 1 Corinthians 11:3 Note use of the word, but here. He is laying out a spiritual principle here that was misunderstood in Corinth. We have the same problem today. Verse 3 is the principle. What kind of covering is Paul talking about here? 1 Corinthians 11:4-10 Scholars think verse 10 refers to the story in Genesis 6:1-4 in which women were the target of sexual seduction by demons. Some feminists think Paul hated women because of his epistles but this is a slander -- Paul was actually quite concerned about their spiritual vulnerability note his advice in 1 Timothy 2:12-15; Undoubtedly, women can be more spiritual than men but this can be a liability as they can be easily influenced by wicked spirits. Consider that Genesis text again: Can demon spirits really sexually assault women? 1 Corinthians 11:11-16 This is very simple -- Women, by nature, have longer hair than men; men with feminine hair are considered odd; in some cultures in Pauls day as in ours today, some women wore veils but in all this talk about covering remember the main point: What kind of covering is Paul concerned with here? Note verse 16 what is Pauls last point? (And is this a contention still today?) 1 Corinthians 11:17-22 What is the problem? Christian communion symbolizes what? Discuss the irony here! Galatians 3:26-29 In the Corinthian Church, the communion service was turned into a fellowship with a full meal a nice tradition but the point of the communion part became lost as people did what they always do at church fellowships -- which is what? 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 What is Pauls point in verse 23? In light of this problem, why do we only have an annual communion service? 1 Corinthians 11:27-34 Paul is warning them to check their hearts 3. Questions/Comments?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What makes the epistles so challenging to study? How do we interpret difficult passages in a New Testament epistle? Why does Paul seem to change subjects so often in his epistle to the Corinthians? In Chapter 11, a womans long hair was a symbol of what? What kind of covering is Paul concerned about? Did Paul have any tradition concerning making women wear a head covering? When Paul describes taking the communion service seriously, what is he talking about? 2. That which edifies the Body 1 Corinthians 12:1-3 Note use of the word concerning here Paul is changing the topic from Chapter 11 because of what reason? 1 Corinthians 7:1 In these verses Paul is suggesting that idols have power over pagan Gentiles? Where would this power come from? 1 Corinthians 10:20 So what does Paul suggest concerning discerning a persons spirit? Matthew 7:20 Now Paul begins to explain what the genuine Spirit of God does for the Church: 1 Corinthians 12:4-11 Note Pauls emphasis on diversity of manifestations and gifts He wants people to discern between the evil and the good but he does not want people to quench the spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19-21). Why is this a critical need for the modern church? Who is to benefit from these manifestations and gifts? Ephesians 4:11-15, 17-19 1 Corinthians 12:12-13, 14-18, 19-22, 23-27 Okay, who can explain this in their own words? Remember we are talking about the unity of diversity with the human body as an example. We could also use a baseball team, a military unit or a boats crew to illustrate the same thing! But why is it important that we recognize the church as a Body? 1 Corinthians 12:28-31 Note the following: What are some of the surprising spiritual gifts? What types of tongues do we mean in verse 28? Note verse 30 is suggesting that only special gifted people can expect these things? Think about the difference between a general manifestation (signs) and an assigned gift (compare to Mark 16:17-18 and what we discussed about Ephesians 4:11-15) Do many churches actually believe or practice verse 31? Do we? 3. Questions/Comments?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What makes the epistles so challenging to study? Why does Paul seem to change subjects so often in his epistle to the Corinthians? Why is Paul so concerned that the Corinthians understand the Holy Spirit? What do the gifts and the ministries of the Holy Spirit do for the Church? What is the church compared to in 1 Corinthians 12? What can we compare 1 Corinthians 12 to if we want to see how the early church practiced these gifts and ministries? 2. The worlds most famous lecture on love 1 Corinthians 13:1-3 The key to understanding this chapter is to understand what Paul means by love What kind of love are we talking about here? Types of love found in the New Testament Greek -- Discuss: Philo, Eros, Agape Old King James translations use an unfortunate word: Charity Gods love is unique to the New Testament and is a perfect rendering for Christian love which is a love from God to us (undeservedly), from us to God (because He loves us) and from us to others (because we want them to know Gods love). Now explain what Paul is saying in verses 1-3. Matthew 23:23 1 Corinthians 13:4, 5, 6, 7, 8 Read and explain each in your own words There is a false teaching associated with the Holy Spirit in verse 8. Can you find it? 1 Corinthians 14:39 Mark 16:17 1 Corinthians 13:9-10 What is Paul talking about there? 1 Corinthians 8:1-2 1 Peter 4:12-13 1 Corinthians 13:11-12 What are these two scriptures describing? 1 John 3:2-3 1 Corinthians 13:13 Gods love is and must be the supreme characteristic of the Christian -- but what is our source for our Faith, Hope and Love? Galatians 5:22-23 3. Questions/Comments?

Introduction 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What makes the epistles so challenging to study? What kind of love is being discussed in 1 Corinthians 13? What is the Greek word? How can spiritual gifts deceive those who have them? What does Paul say needs to present to make these gifts more than mere noise? Note verse 8. Does this mean the gift of tongues is going to cease? Explain How can these other spiritual gifts let us down? Why is Paul concerned about Christian maturity? Do spiritual gifts make us perfect? 2. The Practice and Use of Speaking in an Unknown Tongue Two considerations in studying this chapter: context and paragraph breaks By those, what are we talking about? 1 Corinthians 14:1-5 Most Pentecostals agree that the term used here as prophesying refers to interpretation of tongues. Because in the next verse he expresses the need to interpret because tongues speech should be a kind of revelation, knowledge, prophesying or teaching: 1 Corinthians 14:6 For an unknown tongue to be used for these specific purposes, what would need to take place in addition to tongue speaking? 1 Corinthians 14:7-9, 11-13 There are varieties of tongues(1 Corinthians 12:28). The paragraph starts in verse 6 and thus we can see that interpretation of tongues is for the use of tongues for revelation, knowledge, prophesying or teaching. Where could we go to prove that not all varieties of tongues require interpretation? Acts 2:4, 11 Acts 10:44-46 Acts 19:6 1 Corinthians 14:14-19 What is Paul suggesting regarding tongues to bring order to a church service? 1 Corinthians 14:20-22, 23-25 Another paragraph break and a change of subject regarding tongues. Why is Paul concerned with maturity? What does he mean? Note the Old Testament scripture used to justify tongues (Isaiah 28:11-12). Can you think of any other Old Testament scriptures about tongues? 1 Samuel 10:9-12 Who might be included among the uninformed of verse 23? 1 Corinthians 14:26-28, 29-31, 32-33 Note the paragraph break -- What problem is being addressed in verse 26-27? What does verse 32 tell us about self-control? 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 Compare to 1 Timothy 2:11-14 This topic appears in an earlier chapter of Corinthians. Do women prophesy and interpret in tongues? Acts 2:17-18, Acts 21:8-9 -- What might Pauls concern be about women and tongues? 1 Corinthians 14:36-40 The last three verses contain Pauls bottom line on speaking in tongues: Expound upon them. In your opinion, has the modern church followed Pauls bottom line? 3. Questions/Comments? Pastor Tim Moynihan The Potters House  HYPERLINK "http://www.pottershouseoceanside.com" www.pottershouseoceanside.com Cell: 760-477-390 Letters to the Corinthians: A Bible Study -- 2013 -- The Potters House, Oceanside 1 Corinthians, Chapter 15: The Resurrection of the Physical Body 1. Foundation 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 Why does Paul seem to cover so many diverse subjects in this epistle? What about the fact that this is an epistle makes it so hard to understand? What can we do to better understand Pauls points in an epistle like this? Are their different varieties of the Gift of Tongues? When is an interpreter necessary? Because tongue speaking is so controversial, does Paul recommend we ignore this gift so people dont get confused or uncomfortable? Then why do some churches do it differently than Paul suggests? 2. The Necessity of the Resurrection, vs. 1-34 1 Corinthians 15:1-2 This verse doesnt translate to English very well so note the word if what is the conditional subject being described here? What must be done to obtain it? How can we believe in vain? Matthew 7:21 1 Corinthians 15:3-9 Why would Paul need to go over these basic Gospel facts with these Corinthians? (Hint: What did not exist yet to help them?) Who is James in vs. 7? Why does it matter? Acts 15:13, Galatians 1:18-19, Acts 21:18 Why does Paul call himself least? Why does he call himself an apostle? Hebrews 3:1 1 Corinthians 15:10-11 What do you think motivated Paul to labor more abundantly than they all? Luke 7:42-43, 47 1 Corinthians 15:12-14, 15-19 What makes Jesus Christ unique among the worlds religious leaders? What good is Christianity without the Resurrection of Christ? What is the most important hope a Christian possesses? John 6:68-69 1 Corinthians 15:20-23 why is Christ the first-fruits? 1 Corinthians 15:24-26 How is death defeated for the believer? 1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 Read and Discuss: 1 Corinthians 15:27-28, 29-30, 31-32, 33-34 Why do you think Paul feels the need to go into so much detail about the Resurrection with these Corinthian believers? (Hint: note vs. 33) Titus 3:9-10 3. The Prophetic Implications of the Resurrection, vs. 35-58 1 Corinthians 15:35-36 Imagery from agriculture. Can you explain vs. 36? John 12:24 1 Corinthians 15:37-38, 39-41, 42-44, 45 How is Jesus the Second Adam? 1 Corinthians 15:22-23 1 Corinthians 15:46-49 Adam was created from what? And God breathed what into him? And Adam lost this spiritual life how? And who restores that life? Yet Jesus died a natural death before being resurrected by the Holy Spirit of God! 1 Corinthians 15:50-52 This is commonly referred to as the what? Matthew 24:40-42 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 Greek harpazo = caught up (Latin: rapturos) 1 Corinthians 15:53-54, 55-58 While there is some reasonable and acceptable debate about the timing of the Rapture, to deny its existence is akin to denying the resurrection! The physical resurrection of our bodies is closely connected with the events of the Second Coming of Christ. If there is no resurrection then large portions of Bible doctrine become irrelevant and Christianity loses its power. 4. Questions/Comments? Pastor Tim Moynihan The Potters House  HYPERLINK "http://www.pottershouseoceanside.com" www.pottershouseoceanside.com Cell: 760-477-390 Letters to the Corinthians: A Bible Study -- 2013 -- The Potters House, Oceanside 1 Corinthians, Chapter 16: Closing Words on Offerings, Attitudes and Travel Plans 1. Foundation 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 What makes studying the epistles such a complex task? Where do we go to get insight into Pauls meaning in his epistles? What is an apostle? Why does Paul call himself the least of the Apostles? Is the resurrection an essential doctrine? What is it? And explain why it is or isnt essential. What does the resurrection have to do with the LORDs Second Coming? How do Christians beat death? 2. Pauls upcoming visit and other matters 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 What are they doing on the first day of the week? Why is the phrase on the first day of the week so important to us? Acts 20:7 1 Corinthians 16:3-4 Where is this offering going? Do we do anything like this in our churches today? Note Pauls comment about who will be bearing the gift. Why is this significant? 1 Corinthians 16:5-9 Note the geography. Where are Macedonia and Ephesus located? Paul is conducting an evangelistic circuit to several different churches. Why? Note his desire to stay for a while in the winter. Why would this be desirable? Macedonia was the first place Paul was led to plant a church in Europe. What convinced him to go there originally? Acts 16:6-10 Can you think of any reason why Paul would like to spend Pentecost (a Jewish Feast Day) in Ephesus? Acts 19:1-7 1 Corinthians 16:10-11 Why might some people despise Timothy? 1 Timothy 1:3, 4:12 1 Corinthians 16:12 We know from we read in Acts 19:1 that Apollos was an evangelist who followed behind Paul on his missionary journey and helped strengthen the churches. 1 Corinthians 3:6-9 Ephesians 4:11-13 1 Corinthians 16:13-14, 15-18 An admonition for all the Christians in different churches planted by Paul to all work together. This is the model for our fellowship. 1 Corinthians 16:19-21, 22, 23-24 Verse 22 doesnt fit into the kind of lukewarm, feminized churchianity with which most of us are accustomed but it is how Paul and the early church viewed those who rebel against the gospel. 3.
