6. How to Shock an Apostle (1 Corinthians 5)

Preached on 20th September 2020 by Rupert Hunt-Taylor.

The sixth talk in the "How to win at Christianity" series.

Sermon Notes:

The real scandal in Corinth:

  • One Corinthian disease, right through the letter

  • How do chapters 5 & 6 relate to it?

Dealing with sin in the church is hugely painful… so why bother?

1.  Some real ‘judgement’: A loving heart (v1-5)

  • For his sake:  your love for the sinner demands it

2.  Some real ‘knowledge’: A fresh start (v6-8)

  • For your sake:  the health of God’s temple demands it

3.  Some real ‘spirituality’: A brotherly part (v9-13)

  • For the world’s sake:  the mission you share demands it
