Introduction to the second letter to the Corinthians. In this message we take a stroll down the streets of ancient Corinth.
It is probably more realistic to assume that Corinth shared a fate similar to many port cities of the world where money flows freely and transient mariners and desperate women abound. Nevertheless, sexual sin was unquestionably in abundance.
Corinth had returned to its ancient splendor under the care of Augustus. The city enjoyed a preeminence that made it the glory of Greece. It became the seat of commercial, political and intellectual life making it a key location in which to implant the gospel and the glory of God in Christ.
In this sermon we also explore the founding of the first church in southern Greece at Corinth. We also examine the letter itself; probing its emotional tone as we read the very personal writings of Paul.
2 Corinthians is a treasury of doctrinal truth. Some of the most profound theology in all of the New Testament is presented to us in this powerful letter.
