1 Corinthians 1: Called in Christ: thankful together or falling apart 1 Corinthians 2:1-3:4: Mind of Christ: true wisdom from the Spirit 1 Corinthians 3:5-23: Founded on Christ: working together with God 1 Corinthians 4: Servants of Christ: at the end of the parade 1 Corinthians 5-6: Members of Christ: the body is meant for the Lord 1 Corinthians 7: Devoted to Christ: marrying when time is short 1 Corinthians 8-9: Living for Christ: the right to relinquish rights 1 Corinthians 10: Eating with Christ: all for the glory of God 1 Corinthians 11: Headship of Christ: truly worshipping together 1 Corinthians: Body of Christ: manifestation for the common good 1 Corinthians 13: Love of Christ: the most excellent way 1 Corinthians 14: Speaking for Christ: mature and orderly worship 1 Corinthians 15-16: Hope in Christ: The Resurrection and the Life.
Summary: Life among Christians can be great. But lets face it- it can also be exasperating! The joys of fellowship too often give way to division and debate-arguments over such things as the correct form of worship and the place of charismatic gifts. In 1 Corinthians we see Christianity not as it was meant to be but as it often is. Yet we also find practical advice for overcoming the challenges of life together.
