In this concluding study of 1st Corinthians Pastor Barry asks if we love Jesus more now than when we began? Paul uses his ‘farewell’ address to remind the Corinthian beleivers of the things he had taught them and to encourage them to stand firm, hold fast, and not waiver in their faith, but to also […]
