DON'T FAINT: GOD ISN'T FINISHED! What happens when following Christ costs you relationships, possessions, opportunities - or people you love? Jesus promised those who forsake things for His sake "an hundredfold now in this time" and "manifold more in this present time." Job lost almost everything. But that wasn't the end of his story. "The LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning." Don't let present losses produce self-pity. Don't faint in the middle of the story. There is a due season. There is a latter end. And there is a God who rewards, restores, and remembers every sacrifice made for Him. "In due season we shall reap, if we faint not." - Galatians 6:9

This sermon introduces a study of 1 Corinthians by highlighting the severe moral and spiritual decay of the Corinthian church, which was situated in a notoriously immoral city. Despite the congregation's numerous failures and divisions, the preacher emphasizes that Paul begins his letter with thanksgiving for God's grace rather than criticism. The central message asserts that believers are sanctified by their position in Christ, not by their perfect behavior, urging Christians to reject a critical spirit. Instead of writing off broken people or churches, believers are called to recognize God's ongoing work and actively participate in His redemptive plan. Ultimately, the sermon challenges the audience to surrender themselves to God's grace, trusting that He can accomplish remarkable things through imperfect vessels.
