Doug Van Meter - 4 February 2024
Exalting the Lordship of Jesus (1 Corinthians 12:7–11)
The church in Corinth was experiencing division due to both social (11:17–34) and spiritual stratification (chapters 12–14). Having addressed the matter of “spiritual things” in 12:1–6, Paul begins in vv. 7–11 to teach the church about spiritual gifts and, practically, how they are for the purpose of corporately confessing, conforming, and communicating the lordship of Jesus Christ. He instructs concerning: 1. The Expression of the Spirit (v. 7) 2. The Effect of the Spirit (vv. 8–10) 3. The Empowerment of the Spirit (v. 11)
Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 12:7-11
