1 Corinthians 11:1 - 16
1 CorinthiansSteve Gregg
In this text, Steve Gregg explores the complex and multi-layered themes of 1 Corinthians 11:1-16. He discusses the importance of laying down personal privileges for the good of others, the challenges of interpreting cultural customs, and the principles of observing societal norms that align with the gospel. Additionally, he emphasizes the mutual respect and dependency of men and women and the need to judge oneself regarding comeliness and social acceptability rather than conforming to societal norms. Throughout his analysis, Gregg provides insightful commentary on the biblical passage and encourages Christians to prioritize obedience to Jesus' teachings over denominational doctrines or numerical growth.
