God is always with us in suffering
His comfort empowers believers to help others in need

Paul shares his own struggles and weaknesses:

He faced persecution, hardship, and criticism
Yet he finds strength because God’s power works best in weakness

Hardship is an opportunity for God to show His greatness

💌 The Story of 1 Corinthians — Love, Unity, and Spiritual Gifts

Part One: Addressing Division

Paul writes to the church in Corinth, where believers were divided:

Some followed different leaders instead of Christ
Pride and selfishness caused arguments and conflicts

Paul reminds them:

“Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul?”

All believers belong to Christ alone
Unity comes from focusing on Jesus, not personal preferences

Part Two: Wisdom and Humility

Paul teaches that God’s wisdom is different from the world’s:

God often chooses the weak, foolish, and lowly to shame the proud
True wisdom comes from humility and dependence on God

“God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise.”

God’s plan works best when believers trust Him, not themselves.

Part Three: The Power of Love

Paul gives a famous teaching on love (1 Corinthians 13):

Love is patient, kind, and does not envy or boast
Love always protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres
Without love, even great deeds and gifts are meaningless

“So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”

Love is the foundation for all Christian living.

Part Four: Spiritual Gifts

Paul encourages believers to use spiritual gifts wisely:

Different gifts serve different purposes, but all build up the church
No gift is greater than another; all are important in God’s plan
Love must guide the use of every gift

“The gospel is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes.”

Everyone has sinned and falls short of God’s glory
But through Jesus, God offers forgiveness and eternal life
Faith, not works alone, is the key to being made right with God

Part Two: Justification by Faith

Paul explains that God justifies (makes right) those who believe:

Abraham believed God, and it was counted as righteousness
We are saved by trusting in Jesus, not by our own deeds

“For we hold that one is justified by faith apart from works of the law.”

This shows that God’s grace, not our perfection, saves us.

Part Three: Life in the Spirit

Believers are called to live in the Spirit, not under the law:

The Spirit gives power to overcome sin
Produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control

He chooses and calls people according to His plan
He works all things for good for those who love Him
