1 Corinthians 3

Apr 20, 2025    Micah Heist

As we delve into 1 Corinthians 3, we're reminded of the transformative power of God's Word in renewing our minds. This passage challenges us to grow spiritually, moving from spiritual infancy to maturity. We're called to build our faith on the solid foundation of Jesus Christ, using 'gold, silver, and precious stones' - enduring spiritual truths - rather than the perishable 'wood, hay, and straw' of worldly wisdom. The imagery of construction beautifully illustrates how we, as believers, are God's temple, with His Spirit dwelling within us. This profound truth emphasizes the importance of unity in the body of Christ and warns against divisiveness. As we reflect on our own spiritual growth, let's consider: Are we building our faith with lasting materials? Are we fostering unity or division in our Christian community?
