37 1Corinthians 12:11-13 Should everyone speak in tongues?

March 11, 2020 by Krisan Marotta

As Paul continues discussing the unity and diversity of the body of Christ, we pause to consider what that tells us about speaking in tongues today. Should everyone speak in tongues?

36 1Corinthians 12:4-11 What are spiritual gifts?

March 4, 2020 by Krisan Marotta

Paul argues that while all believers have the same Spirit, God distributes different gifts to different believers on purpose. Paul’s point in this section is not to give a catalog of gifts, but examples of the diverse ways the Spirit works.

What are spiritual gifts?

March 3, 2020 by Krisan Marotta

Contrary to the popular view, I understand spiritual gifts as roles and opportunities to serve, rather than supernaturally given talents. For example, if I have the “gift of teaching,” the gift is the opportunity to teach, not the talent to teach.

35 1Corinthians 12:1-3 The mark of spirituality

February 26, 2020 by Krisan Marotta

Paul starts the topic of spiritual gifts in 1Corinthians 12. The Corinthians are confused in thinking that speaking in tongues is the mark of true spirituality and that those who have not spoken in tongues are lesser Christians. Paul lays the foundation in 12:1-3 for his argument which will run through chapter 14.

32 1Corinthians 11:17-22 Situation with Lord’s Supper

February 5, 2020 by Krisan Marotta

What’s the problem with the way the Corinthians are handling the Lord’s Supper? Some think the key issue is that they were profaning a holy ritual. Others think the key issue is mistreating the poor. I think the key issue is their lack of belief.

31 What does Paul mean by head, 2?

January 29, 2020 by Krisan Marotta

Most everyone agrees that Paul is speaking metaphorically, but few agree exactly what he means by the metaphor of head. To understand Paul’s use of head in 1 Corinthians 11:2-16, we look at Paul’s use of head in all his other letters, particularly in Ephesians.

January 22, 2020 by Krisan Marotta
