1Co1

I am grateful that my salvation is rooted in God's faithfulness and not mine! "God is faithful; you were called by Him into fellowship which His Son." v.9

Paul begins this letter thanking God for the Corinthians and leaning into God's call on their lives and God's faithfulness. It is the best and only place to start! What will follow is 16 chapters of corrections, rebukes and challenges. Yet the foundation is clear. Paul's desire was to build them up and not tear them down. He wanted to call them to obedience to a faithful God who called them.

1st Corinthians is for us! God has called us into relationship with Him. It is His work. Our response should be to follow hard after Him. I look forward to reading this together.
