Print ‘ jl-18-2-2. . ;1 GOLDEN .TEXT—"Far ba It from mo to r Iglory, aavo In the ctosb of our Lord- Jesus JChrlst—Gal. 6:14. . * i . , . Paul’s letter to the church at Cor- ,Inth was written from the city of (Ephesus some four of five years after . Waul had left Corinth. We have seen teome of the difficulties •which sur- {rounded this church. It was a small jbody of believers In a great city of ’four hundred thousand. It was sur- ; rounded by all hinds of liscentlousness " and excess so that to maintain a Chris- jtlan moral ideal was difficult In tlie ex- ,trcme.' That is why this first epistle <jhns bo much to do with church govern- ■meat and such questions as the mar­ riage relation, the conduct o f public assemblies, spiritual gifts, the resur- *rectlon from the dead, different foe* - tlons, the love feasts o f the rich and the poor, eating meat offered to idols, law suits conducted before the heath- , en, the Lord’s supper and church . diclpllne are discussed, Paul did mot 'himself write the letter. Spsthenes kacted as his amanuensis. In this let- I ter is the wonderful and immortal love chapter (Oh. 18), and the magnificent *resurrection chapter (Oh. 15). The only unity desirable or possible ' is that which Christ prayed for (John 17:21). This is not a unity of opinion Or of organization, but a unity of .pur­ pose and power, the working together of belivers In harmony to attain the great purposes of Christianity. I. The Power and Wisdom of God. <vy. 18-25),- To a sin-blinded mind the preaching of the cross is foolishness. Even some professed Christians reject the’ doctrine of substitution which ,1s found everywhere In the Bible. (Isa. 53:6; Gftl, 8:13; I Cor. 5:21). If the doctrine 'of the. cross is foolishness to anyone It Is to “ them that perish.” The Jews require a Blgn (v. 22) J>ut the crbsjs puts them to shame (v. 27). God is made unto us wisdom, not the Wisdom of inch-but the wisdom of the Spirit: It IB.such preaching as tills that is “ the power of God." It has proven itself the power of God In our lives. It will “destroy the wisdom o f the wise” and “ bring, to nothing the understanding of the prudent” (Isa. 20:14 cf. Jer. 8:9). God is constantly making foolish the power and wisdom of this world. Philosophic research after the unknowable “tries to make a God of its own pattern but does not satisfy the longings of the human heart,” and God through the foolish­ ness of the thing preached Is pleased to "save them which believe." The performing of a miracle (Math, 12:38), and the Greeks' seeking after wisdom, or philosophical reasoning, is no match for the Christ crucified whom Paul preached. II. The Preaching and Power of Paul (w . 26 tj>Ch. 2:2). Taking theBible as a .wholei we see in It God’s plan and purpose with regard to the goal of mankind. The problem was by what means this purpose could be per­ formed. The whole of the Old Testa­ ment Is a story of God working to this end. .Then at the best time In all his­ tory enme Jesus, the son of God, into the world, and, by his death on the cross and his resurrection, we ate all bound together In one,-summed up In the cross as the power and the wisdom of God for salvation. The symbol of the cross Is a common sight, yet the great truth which it symbolizes is often obscured by scholars, and falls to be lived by dlscinles, God chooses those whom the world, rejects, “ the foolish,” and .whom/the world-rejects ns “ the weak.” These are the ones that were cSHed even In Paul’s day. The purpose of tills call is to confound (or to put to shame) the wisdom of men. .The most powerful motive in existence is the.motive of the cross. (I) The cross Is the highest proof and the strongest' expression of the love o f God for man. (2) the cross was the agent whereby atonement was made for sin. (3) The cross shows ua the terrible evils of sin and the de­ mand o f each a sacrifice as God's son in ordag- to save us from it. (4) It shows us that God wants us to come to him and to be saved, “land that there Is joy in heaven over every repentant sinner. (5) It shows the supreme val­ ue of right and duty in that Christ went to the cross nt the terrible cost of his life. (6) It shows the value of the human soul. (7) Prom the cross, through the resurrection and the ever- living Saviour, God has given us the fullness of the Spirit to luspiro and transform. . We are nothing In ourselves, and God haB made Christ unto us “wisdom mid righteousness,” that is, God’B righteousness is provided for us in Christ (I Cor. ,5:21; Rom. 5:1; Phil. 3:9 R. V ,); also sanctification and redemption, that 1% we are separated from the world unto God and In him we are redeemed from s sequences. There is left no room i ourselves. This was the preaching upon which Paul depended, not upon rhetoric not philosophy nor argument with which to convict and convert,men. Chime and Chimes. It is not “positively Incorrect” to use the word chimes. “We have heard the chimes at midnight. Master Shal­ low," exclaimed Falstaff; and the “Chimes of Bruges" is an expression that has been used "correctly” enough, too, a thousand times; j u u u ti ui u l inmnd Its cpn- ftfitglorying In Week After Next - The Old Reliable Whore everyone has a good time.
