Introduction
There is an old saying that goes, “As long as the ship is in the water, everything is alright.
When the water gets in the ship, there is big trouble” In much the same way we can say that the church must be in the world bu when the world gets into the church there is big trouble.
In today’s sermon we are going to continue our series through I Corinthians where we come to .
Paul points out that water in the ship is certainly what was happening in the church at Corinth.
Let’s pray together and ask God to bless the reading and proclamation of His word.
Pray
Read Scripture
I Corinthians
I.
The Report Paul Received
We know that Paul was writing in response to verbal reports he had recieved as well as a letter.
He is shocked by what he hears and the language that he uses in dealing with it, reflects the extremity of the situation.
A. Shocking Sexual Sin
There was a shocking sexual going on.
A man had his father’s wife.
I don’t know everything about this but I once heard a pastor say that if there’s a gal and you call her mom and then you take her to prom…that’s nasty.
This was so shocking infact, that not even the pagans approved of it.
Imagine that.
If you have sin going on in the church body that even the non-Christians look at and say, “that’s nasty,” you’re in a bad way.
So Paul is shocked at this sin.
It was a repulsive sin.
Incest is forbidden in .
Leviticus 18
It is strange to see that there is no judgement mentioned for the woman.
It seems like Paul is equally shocked at the sin of the man and the attitude of the church toward this open sin.
B. Our Attitude Toward Sin Is Important
The church was arrogant.
C. Paul says he is with them in this, just as Jesus is with them in their assembly.
II.
Paul helps us see the nature of sin.
Sometimes we forget what sin does.
It kills.
It steals.
It destroys.
A. Sin affects the whole church like yeast placed in dough.
B. Yeast seems to be symbolic of sin.
Jewish Passover
III.
How We Respond to the sinner.
A. How to hand him over.
B. Another problem (v.9-10)
C. Love will always discipline
Conclusion and Application
For the Good of the Offender.
For the Good of the Church.
For the Good of the World.
