1 Corinthians (Part 6) - What do we do with our freedom?
Mar 8, 2020 • Nick Followwell
Big Ideas: We are free in Christ. What we do with that freedom determines who we're becoming; as individuals and as the church.
Paul calls the strong/mature to take the form of a servant to win the weak into a more robust faith.
Your knowledge of Christ should never outpace your service to Christ.
Paul calls the weak to allow the strong to help them mature in their faith. The weak need to acknowledge why their conscience won't allow certain things.
The end goal for the strong and the weak is mutual submission. We have to discipline ourselves to submit our lives to one another. When we do this, we show the world around us that we've found a better way to live; a way to true freedom.
