According to Acts 18:11, Paul spent a year and a half in Corinth “teaching them the Word of God”. At that time there were no New Testament writings. Therefore Paul taught from the Law, the Prophets, and the Historical Writings of the Tanakh/Old Testament. In this portion of Paul’s letter, he focused on the lessons the Corinthians should learn from Israel’s history and how to apply those lessons in their lives and in ours.

Family Matters
June 29, 2024 • Ronald Haynes • Matthew 12:46–50
Sabbath Service: Family Matters – Matthew 12:46-50 Since the beginning, the enemy has waged warfare against families. When Satan’s schemes fail in a direct attack on a Believer, he usually resorts to the closest to them - an attack through their family. Through Yeshua’s responses, we should understand how to view and deal with our families. For many, a difficult choice to make is whether to appease our family or be obedient to YeHoVaH’s Laws and Commandments. Which one will you choose?
There Is No Resurrection?
June 22, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • 1 Corinthians 15:1–34
The resurrection of the dead was a matter of grave concern in the Corinthian assembly. Resurrection deniers amongst the brethren in Corinth put the foundation of the Gospel of the Kingdom, the Gospel Messiah taught, at risk and undermined the preaching of the Gospel, the salvation experience, and the hope of eternal life. Additionally, the corrupted teaching against the resurrection caused the character of some to be corrupted, leading them away from righteous living to a sinful lifestyle.
Prophecy, Tongues & Orderly Worship
June 15, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • 1 Corinthians 14
Yeshua told His followers that they “will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Inclusive of the promised Holy Spirit are the gifts of the Spirit including prophecy and tongues. Paul gives further instructions on operating in the gifts in an orderly fashion during worship including his position on women’s roles when the Saints assemble.
