TNTC 07: 1 Corinthians

The cosmopolitan city of Corinth was the site of one of the apostle
Paul's greatest evangelistic successes. However, the church he founded
was full of contention, ranging from questions about leadership to incest. Some
Christians were taking fellow believers to court. There were issues concerning
marriage, celibacy, food offered to idols, public worship and spiritual gifts.
In response, Paul offered some of his most profound thinking on the body of
Christ, love, and Jesus' cross and resurrection. Thomas Schreiner explains
the text of the letter, highlights its major theological themes and offers
perspectives on its relevance for today.
