Today on According to the Scriptures we take a look at the damage on the other end of contentions and divisions that are birthed out of our flesh. In the church of Corinth a number of cliques had formed around their favorite leader. And things got so bad they were on the verge of a church split. That’s when the apostle Paul stepped in with these words we find in First Corinthians chapter one.

That He is the way, the truth, the life and no one comes to the Father except through Him! Sounds rather exclusive or narrow doesn’t it? As we get started consider for a moment a few areas where we tolerate and even expect narrowness!

The first century church of Corinth certainly had its fair share of problems... lawsuits, division, fighting, immorality, and mistakes were occurring left and right. In light of all of this, it’s interesting to note Paul’s approach to them as he introduces First Corinthians. He was thankful, hopeful, and focused on who they were in Christ. Today on According to the Scriptures we visit First Corinthians chapter one. It’s here that we see we’re called to be saints. But what does that look like on a practical level?
