First Corinthians For Today is based on the firm conviction that this epistle of Paul speaks with keen relevance to problems of our time. Pride and dissension still erode the Christian fellowship. The modern sex revolution challenges the practice of true Christian love. Freedom is often confused with license. The church still needs renewal. The problems of Corinth are mirrored in Big Town and Microville.
Although the text of 1 Corinthians is explained briefly, this book is more concerned with the application and illustration of Paul's teachings. It can help any Bible student, but teachers especially will appreciate the enrichment it offers for their class sessions.
