1 Corinthians

Sunday, 26 September 2021 // God's Story: New Testament

Description

Sometimes the most loving thing someone can do for us is to point out our error or inconsistency.

We have learned that Jesus Christ broke down the dividing wall of hostility in His flesh on the cross, in order that Jews and Gentiles can now be reconciled with one another and with God, creating one new man and thereby making peace.

However, in demanding the churches in Galatia to adopt Jewish traditions and lifestyles, a certain group of people reignited this hostility, and behaved in a way that was not in step with the gospel which they have learned.

There is no other gospel but the gospel of Jesus Christ, taught by the apostles, and revealed by Scripture. As Paul writes, even if an angel should preach a contrary gospel, let him be accursed (Gal 1:8).

Today, we are confronted by different distortions of the gospel, but the same question remains relevant: Have you been living in step with the truth of the Gospel? Or have you fallen for another (false) gospel?

Please note that all the audio for our sermons is recorded live and only very lightly edited. From time to time you will hear the preacher making off-the-sermon comments or silences that come with this context. These include: the preacher making a wordless gesture or action to the audience, dropping and picking up something, a blooper that disrupts the flow of the sermon, and even a power outage! Thank you for understanding. We are working on uploading video for all the sermons that work better on video. Keep growing under the Word; may God bless His church.
