Free Bible Study: Paul’s First Epistle to the Corinthians
Today’s Lesson: The Problem of Lawsuits
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6.1-6.11
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 6.1-6.11
Description:
The main purpose of this chapter is to administer what amounts to a slap on the wrist to the Corinthians for their practice of taking other believers to court (vv. 1-7), instead of settling their differences among themselves. It seems that after their conversion they were still in the habit of taking their causes before heathen courts, and the apostle considered this practice contrary to the spirit of the Christian religion, and that it tended to expose the Christian religion to disrespect in the eyes of worldly men.
