A Glimpse of His Glory (Luke 9:28-36)

If you enjoy the award ceremonies of the Olympics, or the Academy Awards in filmmaking, the Grammy Awards in music, the Emmy Awards for television, The Tony Awards for Broadway, etc, then you will love the first nine verses of the third chapter of First Corinthians as they introduce us to the context for the award ceremony of the ages presented in 1 Corinthians 3:10-15, the one that will take place in front of the Judgment Seat of Christ (Romans 14:10-12).

From 1 Corinthians 2:12-3:4, we are reminded that congregations usually have a mix of three different levels of devotion to the Lord: the natural man (2:14), the spiritual man (2:13, 15; 3:1) and the carnal man (3:1-4). Often times all three types are “serving” the Lord.

The church in Corinth was heavy with carnal Christians, making it clear why they divided up over which preachers they liked best. Paul, however, shifts the discussion in verses 5-9 to the Lord not man. Pastors are there on God’s assignments (v. 5) as He causes growth (vs. 6-7) in His service (vs. 8-9). Paul mentions His rewards to His servants in verse 8 with these words, “…and each will receive his wages according to his labor.” Paul will take the next six verses (vs. 10-15) to explain how these rewards will be given by Christ and on what basis or criteria.

Motivation towards Labor for the Lord, 3:10
Illustration of Labor for the Lord, 3:10
Maturation for Labor in the Lord, 3:10
Foundation when Laboring for the Lord, 3:10-11
Edification in Laboring for the Lord, 3:10, 12
Evaluation of Labor for the Lord, 3:13
Remuneration for Labor for the Lord, 3:14
Salvation is not Labor for the Lord, 3:15

Christ’s Call to Discipleship - Part 2 (Luke 9:18-27)

The letter to the Romans has been divided by most bible scholars into two primary sections – a doctrinal section presented in chapters 1-11 and a practical section that begins in chapter 12 and unpacks the Christian life until the end of the letter in chapter 16. I would like for us to look into that last section where we are instructed in how to live a victorious Christian life today.

Romans 15:4 is a parenthesis in which Paul reminds the reader of the validity of citing Old Testament texts as a basis for ethical exhortation to Christians, whether they were living in Paul’s day in the city of Corinth, an ancient day described in the Old Testament such as David’s time period or in our day in any of our modern cities.
