A building must be constructed according to the architect’s plans and the required building codes.
Before it can be used, it must pass inspection to see that the codes were followed.
The church’s work for the Lord is done in the same way.
To truly be His work, what we do must be done according to His plan and code, revealed in Scripture, and must continually be subject to the divine supervision and inspection of the Holy Spirit.
does not explicitly teach or exhort, except for the advice about receiving Timothy (v.
11).
It is more in the form of explanation.
Yet we can learn a great deal from these eight verses.
The things Paul speaks about here have to do with the work of the Lord, in which all Christians should be deeply involved (15:58).
In Paul gives five final imperatives, five last commands, to the Corinthians.
They are to be alert, firm, mature, strong, and loving.
These commands are, in many ways, the positive side of what in earlier chapters the apostle had told the Corinthians not to be.
Each command can serve as a point of departure for reviewing the epistle.
In many ways, verses 15–24 flow out of and illustrate the command of verse 14: “Let all that you do be done in love.”
Paul’s closing words are not simply niceties that Paul threw in at the end of his letter as a matter of custom or courtesy.
As much as any part of Scripture they are part of God’s Word and are given to us for a divine purpose.
Paul is talking about the all-pervasive love that should mark the fellowship of the church in every locale and every age.
