Chapter Summary Commentary
1
Paul planted, Apollos watered, but God gave growth; Christ crucified is wisdom and power, not worldly wisdom.
2
Paul's ministry demonstrated Spirit's power, not eloquent words; spiritual truths are spiritually discerned.
3
Corinthians are still carnal babies; ministers are servants; the church is God's temple and building.
4
Apostles are stewards and spectacles to the world; Paul warns against pride and appoints Timothy.
5
Sexual immorality in the church must be judged; deliver the offender to Satan for restoration.
6
Christians shouldn't sue each other; our bodies are temples; flee sexual immorality and honor God.
7
Marriage is good; singleness allows undistracted devotion; remain in your calling when converted.
8
Knowledge puffs up, love builds up; be careful not to cause weaker brothers to stumble.
9
Paul's rights as apostle; he becomes all things to all men to save some; run to win.
10
Israel's wilderness failures warn us; flee idolatry; seek others' good, not your own.
11
Head coverings reflect divine order; the Lord's Supper requires proper examination and unity.
12
One Spirit gives diverse gifts to one body; every member is important; seek the best gifts.
13
Love is the most excellent way; it's patient, kind, not envious; greatest of faith, hope, love.
14
Prophecy builds up the church more than tongues; women should ask husbands at home; all things orderly.
15
Christ's resurrection is historical fact and future hope; death is swallowed up in victory.
16
Collection for Jerusalem saints; final instructions; Maranatha (Come, Lord Jesus).
