Prepare for Next Week: 1 Corinthians 6:12–20
Passage Excerpt:
You say, “I am allowed to do anything,” but not everything is good for you. And even though “I am allowed to do anything,” I must not become a slave to anything. You say, “Food was made for the stomach, and the stomach for food.” (This is true, though someday God will do away with both of them.) But you can’t say that our bodies were made for sexual immorality.
1 Corinthians 6:12–20About the Series
"Aren’t you living like people of the world?"
The apostle Paul wrote these words of rebuke to the church in Corinth—a congregation whose behavior associated them with the culture rather than setting them apart as the body of Christ.
They were a group marked by division instead of unity, immorality instead of purity, selfishness instead of love. Although 1 Corinthians was not written to us, its message is for us and invites us to consider: How are we, as a church body, living like people of the world, and how should we repent to be set apart?
