The Discipline of Tongue

Today we read from 1 Corinthians 12:12-26 and examine Paul’s continual teaching on the spiritual gifts. He uses the analogy of the human body to illustrate how the body of Christ is a unified mechanism composed of many parts. Our diversity flows out of our unity. We hope this word will be a blessing to you.

Discipline of Worship

1 Corinthians 11:7-16

Discipline of Prayer

This is a notoriously difficult and misunderstood text in the church due to the perceived sensitivity of the subject to modern readers. What does Paul mean in saying that women ought to cover their heads? Is this still a practice that the church should be following? We will attempt to unpackage and understand this text.

There is no greater pursuit in the life of the believer than the pursuit of a life lived unto the glory of God. Paul teaches us today that we are to do all things for the glory of our God. Let us gather and worship this day.

This week we discuss the disciplining of the mind.

Paul brings to us the example of Israel as a typology of the church. And in this parallel he teaches of the warning that Israel presents, that we are not to follow the transgressions of Israel's past. The church is to live not in presumption and despair, but in humility and hope.

Paul makes a defense in this chapter on the nature of the apostle and the rights of the apostle. On this matter, Paul exercises another right, the right to deny support. And in that he demonstrates a gospel focused ministry.   Join us again next Sunday at 1PM:  https://www.twitch.tv/sheepgatefellowship

Today we discuss the discipline of friendship.

In today's text Paul teaches about the importance of the Christian virtue of love. Love is the supreme virtue that fuels every practice of the Christian life, so may we not be arrogant in our knowledge but loving in our practice.

This week we discuss the topic of being a Christian parent.

Paul gives us a teaching on the posture of those who are engaged. And in this teaching we learn that Paul continues to teach to remain as we are, but not for personal ascetic reasons, but for the purpose of devoting to God.

Paul teaches the primary principle for all Christians in whatever context of life, that we are to continue to walk in the manner in which we are called. God has ordained our lives and we are to gratefully live it out for His glory.

In this week's Bible study we examine the discipline of marriage.

Paul has yet another lesson for us in that we are to set ourselves on God above all things and to glorify Him in all things. That includes our sex lives, our marriages and our singleness.

The Corinthians have loosely dealt with their sexually immoral activities on the premise of faulty theology. Paul looks to correct their misguided ways in today's passage and teach them to flee from their immoralities.
