1 Corinthians: Session 1 (November 4)

Session 1: The City of Corinth

Rev Dr Lim Kar Yong

Paul’s founding mission in Corinth is recorded in Acts 18:1-18. According to Acts 18:11, he stayed there for a period of a year and a half. We can assume that during this period, Paul would have instructed the Corinthians believers in this new-found faith in Jesus the Messiah.

Discussion

1. What do you think Paul could have taught the church during this period of time?
2. Do you think Paul’s teachings were well received and put into practice by the Corinthians? Why or why not?
3. If there is any particular teaching of Paul that the Corinthian church found it difficult to put into practice, what do you think it is most likely to be? What about your church?
