Gospel Work

Bible Text: 1 Corinthians 15:9-11 |

Series:

Those who receive the gospel work hard to make the gospel known. It is a product of God's grace that we are saved. It is also a product of God's grace that we labor and strive for two great things: 1) holiness; and 2) making Christ known. May this text motivate us to strive for the sake of Christ and the gospel.



1 Corinthians

The book of 1 Corinthians was written to a troubled yet gifted church. Paul, an apostle of God, through the inspiration of the Spirit addresses a number of issues that are so relevant to today's church. He address divisions, the Lord's supper, the importance of the resurrection, sexual immorality, marriage, spiritual gifts, and much more. He applies the gospel to each issue. Certainly we need to listen to God's word as these issues are addressed.
