1 Corinthians 2:14 - 4:7

1 CorinthiansSteve Gregg
In 1 Corinthians 2:14-4:7, Steve Gregg discusses spiritual discernment and the importance of valuing and revering God's word. He highlights that spiritual people are not accountable to human judgment but rather to God and their conscience. The foundation of the church should only be laid once by evangelists who preach Jesus Christ, and the church is God's temple that individual believers must be careful not to defile. Ultimately, the message focuses on the importance of humility, faithfulness, and avoiding pride in one's spiritual journey.
