1 Corinthians 8:1

Join us as we dive into 1 Corinthians chapters 8 and 9 with a message titled "Love Over Liberty." In this teaching, we explore the principle of prioritizing love above our freedoms and rights in Christ.
Key Points Covered:
Understanding the Principle: Paul begins by addressing the issue of food offered to idols, emphasizing that knowledge puffs up but love builds up.
Love Over Liberty: We discuss the importance of choosing love over exercising our liberties, particularly when it might cause another believer to stumble.
Paul provides real-life examples and personal anecdotes to illustrate how we can apply this principle in our daily lives.
Paul's Sacrificial Example: Learn from Paul’s own life, where he lays down his rights as an apostle for the sake of the Gospel.
Paul’s approach to different audiences-Jews, Gentiles, and the weak-demonstrates the importance of adapting without compromising the Gospel message.
Paul compares our Christian walk to a race, urging us to exercise self-control and discipline for the sake of the Gospel.
