WhenPaul wrote his first letter to the Corinthians, he was responding to their plea for guidance and spiritual leadership. The newbelievers atCorinth were facing serious problems--divisions, immorality, marital strife, confusion regarding spiritual gifts, and misuse of money. They had lost sight of the joy of Christian liberty.
Paul's instruction to this new church, though tailored to meet theCorinthians' specific needs, will speak to allbelievers.His discussion includes such central issues as wisdom and foolishness, full and partial knowledge, weakness and strength, worldliness and holiness, sin and purity, and humility and boasting.
Robert B. Hughes outlines Paul's teachings, verse-by-verse, tracing the logic of the apostle's argument and instruction. His in-depth commentary--not too technical for the general reader--is helpful, informative, and highly readable.
