This sermon, based on 1 Corinthians 6, addresses handling disputes among Christians. Paul criticizes the Corinthian church for bringing minor disagreements before secular courts rather than resolving issues within the church community. He encourages believers to use church structures for dispute resolution, urging them to prioritize the unity and reputation of the church. The sermon further explores how disputes often stem from a heart focused on self-interest and individual rights, contrasting this with a heart submissive to Christ, which may allow believers to accept wrongs without retaliation. Finally, it highlights the transformative power of grace—reminding Christians of God's forgiveness through Christ, which should compel them to forgive others. By embracing humility and extending grace, believers reflect God's love and avoid displaying internal conflicts to the outside world. The sermon concludes with a call for believers to live in harmony, showing grace and patience in all relationships as a testimony to God's forgiving love.
