The Worldly Wise Man and Wisdom,1 Corinthians 3.18-23

Free Bible Study: Paul’s First Epistle to the Corinthians


Today’s Lesson: The Worldly Wise Man and Wisdom
 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3.18-23

Description:
If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world,
This seems to refer to some individual in the Church of Corinth, who had caused trouble that led to disputes and disunity; probably Diotrephes, who is mentioned in 3 John 1.9: “I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not,” or someone with a similar attitude, who wanted to have the pre-eminence, and thought he was wiser than everyone else. Every Christian Church has one or more of these.
