Ruach Breath Of Life

What a gem Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians is, with his unsurpassed eulogy to love, his seminal teaching about spiritual gifts and the functioning of the Body of Christ, crowned with his deep understanding concerning the glory we will enjoy with the Lord in our heavenly home and in our resurrected bodies in. It soars to such heights that you might almost wonder what a second letter could add to it. But this was also the group of Christians with which he had more trouble than in any of the other fledgling churches. From our perspective today we can be grateful, because it led to some of his most profound and personal writing that is of great benefit to us today. In this talk, which I have called In Christ’s triumphal procession, some of the principal points that I have touched on include: • Remaining alert to the promptings of the Holy Spirit • The triumphant return of Christ, accompanied by His saints • Spreading the fragrance of Christ • Pondering Paul’s question concerning who is equal to the task
