Today I’m going to teach you a four dollar word, and I don’t actually care if you remember it. What I do hope is to help you sharpen your ear when you’re in dialogue with people. So sit tight, and we’ll answer today’s focus question: What is an “a priori” objection?
#1164: When should you judge someone? | 1 Corinthians 5 | Isaiah 41:21-43:13 | Proverbs 14:7-12
Today and tomorrow you’re going to hear Paul talking about specific sins. And at the end of today you’ll hear Paul talk about judging people. What?!? Didn’t Jesus say we’re not supposed to judge people? Well, we will get to that after we read when we get to answering today’s focus question: “When should you judge someone?”
#1163: When is “beyond what is written” okay? | 1 Corinthians 4 | Isaiah 40-41:20 | Psalm 65
#1162: Are there heavenly rewards for earthly work? | 1 Corinthians 3 | Isaiah 38-39 | Psalm 62
Sunday reflection: "Back in whack" (1 Co 2:2; 2 Co 12:10, 14)
#1161: What is Biblical wisdom? | 1 Corinthians 2 | Isaiah 36-37 | Psalm 118 |
We often think of wisdom in kinda abstract terms, but it’s ultimately practical…wisdom is skill for living. Now lest you think — and rightfully so — that that could be how you might think about it in a secular sense, that’s exactly why we have focus questions here. So today as we knock down a short 1 Co 2, keep an ear out — and we’ll wrap up the day by highlighting a key distinction that’s worth remembering.
