Servants of Christ and Their Work, Servants of Christ and Their Work

Servants of Christ and Their Work, Servants of Christ and Their Work

Free Bible Study!

Begin today to study the Bible because what God says is important, and it was written for you!

If you have never studied 1st Corinthians or perhaps it was a long time ago; this study is for you.  It is a wonderful book and it contains many verses that are familiar to most people. It is another love letter from God.

Lesson 2.8: Servants of Christ and Their Work Scripture: 1 Corinthians 4.1-4

Many Corinthian believers were rejecting both Paul’s teaching and his authority. Paul reasserted his authority over them, all the while emphasizing his role as “servant” and “steward” of the mysteries of God—the truths of the gospel. A “steward” (Gk. oikonomos) is the servant who is entrusted with the administration of his master’s business or property. Life, itself is a stewardship, so be faithful (vv. 1–5). We judge ourselves, and others judge us; but the Final Judge is the Lord. Live to please Him alone.
