Triumphal Feast • 033. 1st Corinthians 6:12-20 – “A Misunderstanding of Christian Liberty” Part 2

“A Misunderstanding of Christian Liberty” • 1st Corinthians 6:12-20 – Elder Bryce Lowrance. The church at Corinth was guilty of misunderstanding and misapplying Paul’s teaching regarding Christian Liberty. They believed that, since they were saved by grace, they could partake in and enjoy any sin they wished without any consequences. Paul corrects them by telling them their liberty in Christ does teach that they are saved eternally and cannot be lost, but they are not at liberty to continue in sin. God’s moral law is still in place and has not changed.

Triumphal Feast • 031. 1st Corinthians 6:1-11 – “Handling Offenses” Part 2

“Church Discipline” – 1st Corinthians 5 – Elder Bryce Lowrance. The idea of church discipline is a foreign concept to most churches in our day. Paul’s teaching in this chapter shows us that this is a problem that needs to be rectified. In part 2 of the message, we gin in verses 3 through 5 where Paul teaches what he will do as an Apostle to help the church restart proper church discipline. He will then teach how each on of us and a member of the body of Christ has the responsibility to speak and live in such as way as to encourage righteousness in our fellow members.

Triumphal Feast • 030. 1st Corinthians 6:1-11 – “Handling Offenses” Part 1

“Handling Offenses Within the Church” – 1st Corinthians 6:1-11 – Elder Bryce Lowrance.The Apostle Paul continues to point our how the arrogance and pride of the members of the Church at Corinth has moved them to neglect their duties within the church. In this case, when brethren have a disagreement, they have been going to the courts of the world rather than following the instructions of the Lord to regain fellowship with their brothers. Elder Bryce begins this message by showing that, while we are citizens of heaven, we have a dual responsibility being sojourners here on earth. The church should have a positive impact on the world around it but the world should not be brought into the church nor church issues to be handled according to world standards and practices.

Triumphal Feast • 028. 1st Corinthians 5 – “Church Discipline” Part 1

“Church Discipline” – 1st Corinthians 5 – Elder Bryce Lowrance. The idea of church discipline is a foreign concept to most churches in our day. Paul’s teaching in this chapter shows us that this is a problem that needs to be rectified. The Church at Corinth was puffed up with their many gifts and good preaching. So much so, that they neglected to fulfill one of the church’s biggest responsibilities – teach and encourage righteous living. In this lesson, we see that the moral law of God declared in the Old Testament is still valid. We see that each church and each member of the church has the responsibility to live for Christ and encourage others to walk like Him as well. Finally, we see that church discipline is never to be done for punitive reason but to encourage repentance and holiness.
