Description: Here's this week's lesson introducing our coming study of the Epistles that Paul wrote to Corinth. Hope you enjoy this lesson as much as I am enjoying the actual work doing my study. God’s recovery program for fallen mankind is always sanctification. Christ’s New Testament church was born into a sin-warped, dark-hearted world of mixed-up marriages, sin-scarred lives, and confused families. As we open to Paul's Epistles to the Corinthians, never forget that is the context. Paul, guided by the Spirit of God, was writing a letter from a Roman culture in the First Century that was closed to God’s ways. That meant that every man and woman in Corinth had been born into a sin-warped society. Each person Paul encountered was living out their life each day darkened by sin, enduring mixed-up and struggling marriages, and limping along with sin-scarred lives and families. But despite their failures, God wanted to make them useful again. God knew that the men and women who were gloriously saved could not automatically become great wives and mothers, or husbands and fathers. When they came to Christ and were forgiven, God graciously gave them everything they needed to become godly wives, mothers, husbands, and fathers. But, they needed something else called sanctification to change them into useful servants of God. That's why God sent Paul to Corinth for 18 months--to preach, to plant a church, to live the Gospel of grace among them, and now to write these Epistles back to them.
