Oct 07, 2012 By: Pastor Joseph LoSardo Series: The Church in Sin City Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:5-15
After thoroughly exposing and instructing the church as to the source of their worldly ideas regarding the wisdom and power of the Gospel message, and then plainly rebuking them for their worldly, pro-Paul, pro-Apollos party spirit, Paul then transitions to discuss the proper role of Christian ministry within the church. The Corinthians were ignoring two important truths about Christian leaders. First, that Christian leaders are servants – a word used of table waiters. And second, God cares about His church and holds his leaders accountable for how they build it. One can sense the tension here as church leaders are servants, but yet accountable for how they lead the church.
