“Saved by Hope” • 1st Corinthians 15:1-50 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.

The Church at Corinth had some people teaching that there is not resurrection from the dead. This doctrine, as well as the false practices at Corinth, grew out of a disobedience to the teaching of the Apostle Paul. Paul uses a lengthy but profound argument that the teaching of the resurrection is vital because it is the very heart of the gospel. When we forget or do not believe in the resurrection, the fallen world around us, sin, and death will lead us into despair. However, if we remember the gospel, and its foundation in the resurrection, we will be saved from despair into hope! This message was preached on Sunday, October 22, 2023.

“Charity – The Purpose of God’s Gifts” • 1st Corinthians Chapter 14 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.

After a brief review of the first verse of the chapter, Elder Bryce teaches that reason that God blessed the 1st Century Christians with miraculous gifts was so that they could help others. God still blesses His children today for the same reason. If we have been blessed by God with understanding, love, or any other gift of the Spirit, it is not so that we may brag about being one of God’s children. We have been given these gifts in order to be of benefit to others in our church and community.

Today's episode will pick up with the discussion of having proper zeal toward God beginning in 1st Corinthians 14:12.
