Walk Through The Bible: I Corinthians
Text for Sermon: I Corinthians 1:1-3; 10-13; 20-25; 6:18-20
Introduction.
I have chosen to skip over Paul’s letter to the Romans since we have been in Romans in the morning and I plan to do an overview of the book as a conclusion to our Romans series in about a month.
We have come to the large section of the NT called the Epistles, or the Letters. We have 13 letters by Paul, arranged from longest to shortest, Romans to Philemon. Then there are 7 general letters, and Revelation as the conclusion.
Letters are best understood by reading them in one sitting, like you would any other letter you receive. And because they are personal letters from one person written to another person or group, it helps to know the occasion that prompted them to be written.
