From Sinners to Saints, 1 Corinthians 4:1-21

Paul encouraged the saints at Corinth to avoid relying on worldly wisdom as their guidance, but to lean on the wisdom of God’s Word, which stabilizes and roots us in Christ Jesus. Ch 3 presented three pictures of the local Church > 1. It’s a Family- we start out as babes in Christ and grow into Mature believers for Christ, 2. It’s a field- how we both labor for the work of God, and help people to grow in their faith toward God, 3. It’s a Foundation- we are the Temple of God that gather for public worship.
