GOSPEL APPLICATIONS – I Corinthians 14:27-15:2 – 5-2-26
In the 14th & 15th chapters of his epistle to Corinth, Paul outlines aims of Gospel ministry for the church age. When the unbeliever witnesses the testimony of the Christian community, how should our message resonate? As the Holy Spirit is pleased to activate it, the content and presentation of our gospel message should inspire repentance and faith in the hearts of our pagan neighbors and exhortation unto holiness in the lives of disciples. Let us testify & preach in such a way as to inspire conviction of sin, command submission to the Gospel, and implement applications of church order best serving these primary goals of Christian ministry. Having covered conviction and submission, we close with applications from chapter 14.
