1 Corinthians 11

1 Cor 11(GNB) and Matthew 5:21-26

The Corinthian church was operating in gifts but didn't get it.
We should not only preach the gospel we believe but we should live it.  We need to be in subjection to Christ;  not in subjection to man.  The question is:  Who do I want to please?

Come together and do not have divisions. The Lords supper is a time we focus on the price he paid.
The Lords supper was to bring people together, not cause division.  We are not to look down on any other, I have no right.  It is not my business to judge them, that's Gods business, we are called to pray for them.
Any form or thing that causes disunity amognst Gods people is very serious.


The outward signs of the Lord's Supper are Christ's body and blood. (Bread and Wine)
The benefits you have are from the death of Gods Son.  We are commanded to forgive one another, but we must also stop the behaviour that causes the arguments or division.
The Holy Spirit never causes scripture to deter serious Christians but Satan will twist scripture.
Don't cause disunity in the body of God.  We are not God, we are not called to judge one another.

This week Ps Phyllis shared with us on "Where do we find Encouragement and Strength in our lives?"

The Voice of Experience

Bible readings from Sunday 16th January Message: Acts 17:26-27 Galations 6:7 Genesis Chapter 1:1 Eccelesiates Chapter 3 Romans 2:14-15 Ecclesiates 2:18 1 Corinthians chapter 13 Matthew 5:1-12 10 Commandments - Exodus chapter 20:1-17 We want the world to be fair, but it isn't.  Our view of what is fair may be different from another's view of what is fair.  People deny the existence of God, but that does not mean God does not exist.  Walk through Israel and surrounding areas to see historical evidence.  Look at creation.  Genesis chapter one verse 1 says "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth." We don't know from one day to the next what will happen but God is our constant.  We are not here to build "castles" but to proclaim the Message and when we're done we take the Father's hand and go home. The following story shows us the voice of experience - we can learn a lot from a child's perspective... Sandcastles by
