Ministering Obedience to Christ: Studies in Second Corinthians
Overview
If you are looking for a series of studies that expose the heart of Paul and go straight to the root of what a Christian’s life is all about, then this volume is for you. The emotional exhortations of Second Corinthians are quite different from the logical argumentation of Romans. Here Paul provides practical insights both to Christians and to congregations about the matters that range from “Spiritual Comfort” to “Merchandising the Church.” Unquestionably, Second Corinthians is a neglected book. We extend, therefore, our appreciation to those who wrote these lectures for preparing the way for our own independent study of this magnificent letter. And, as we read the book they have produced, we will be thrilled by the majestic description of “Triumph in Christ,” deeply touched by the plea to “Penitent Christians,” humbled by the study of Paul’s thorn in the flesh, and filled with awe by the striking description of God’s “Divine Jealousy.” Indeed, there are many excellent expositions of Scripture in this volume. The “ministry” discussed in this book not only includes the work of apostles and preachers of the first century but also embraces many ordinary aspects of the Christian’s life of service. For example, the “ministry” of giving comfort to the down trodden and broken hearted are included in the term.
