Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Skyler interviews Dr. Kim Riddlebarger about his commentary First Corinthians. Kim takes us through some of the teachings of Paul in this epistle and how they inform a correct understanding of the Christian Faith. Along the way, we discuss LDS attempts at appropriating their own doctrines and practices from the Epistle - and whether those attempts are, in any way, credible.  First Corinthians (2nd edition) in the Lectio Continua Commentary SeriesThe Riddleblog The Blessed Hope Podcast “Man As a Body-Soul Composite” by Kim Riddlebarger “Trichotomy: A Beachhead for Gnostic Influences” by Kim Riddlebarger    1 Corinthians: Introduction and Commentary by Thomas Schreiner Conflict and Community in Corinth by Ben Witherington III  Mormon Sources: Joseph Smith: here and here Orson Pratt: JD 1.56-57, 294, 332-33, 7.89, 15.51-52, 16.297, 328, 20.70 Heber C.

It is actually chapter 3, however - it is page 9 (so, in my recollection, in/toward the beginning).
