Dearing Christian Church

In this passage we find out, at least in part, what Paul wrote to the church in Corinth after his painful visit, and how they responded to his painful letter.

Paul wasn't opposed to preaching and teaching a LONG time. In Troas this led to a casualty...

Paul here lets the church in Corinth know why he changed his plans and decided to not come see them recently. In the midst of his explanation, we get some good stuff about Christ and the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

Following Jesus requires sacrifice on our part.

Paul begins this letter to the church in Corinth by thanking them for their prayers while he was in a position of great suffering.

Two of the very most important questions in life have to with who knows us.

So, how many times did Paul write the church in Corinth?

What we find in today's passage is a perfect example of what "speaking the truth in love" looks like.

Nobody keeps their promises like God does...

Even Paul needed encouragement sometimes when it came to representing Jesus.
