Date 12/28/2025 Text: 1 Corinthians 1 vs 10-17 Title: Nullifying the cross 1..Apostle Paul is now going to start highlighting and addressing the issues that were happening in the Corinthian church. 2..He had gathered from those of the house of Chloe that they were divisions among them.. 3..Divisions along those that had preached to them like Apollos, Peter, Paul and even some saying CHRIST as if these were all on par with each other and I think these lines may just have been representative of the many schisms existing in that body.. 4..But Paul came to settle the issues by drawing them to the reason why they were called the church of God. It was because of Christ and Christ alone not because of the preachers. 5..Preachers do not cause anyone's salvation.. The person who matters is Christ and He can't be divided.. 6..So Paul said, this is how you were saved? It was not because of Paul dying for them, but Christ.. 7..It was not because of baptism, because Christ did not send him to dunk people in water, because that does not save anyone.. 8..Paul said, he was sent to preach the gospel... Preaching the gospel then is important in the salvation business. But we must also know that mere preaching is not the cause of a sinner's justification... 9..Preaching is for calling the elect to Christ by giving the basis upon which faith and repentance are worked in the sinner by the Holy Spirit.. This and more and it is free!
