Loving My Brother More Than My Rights
1) Superiority of love over knowledge – vv1-3 2)Reality of one God and one Lord – vv-6 3) Different convictions about eating food offered to idols – v7 a. “knowledgeable” = Idols are nothing so eating is nothing. b. “weak” = Know that idols are nothing, but eating is an idolatrous practice. 4)Paul’s response to the “knowledgeable” – vv8-13 Exercising your “right” could destroy your brother and cause you to sin against Christ. Preparing my heart for the sermon: -What is more important: theological knowledge or love? Why? -Some believers in Corinth were exercising their right to eat food that had been offered to idols. What was the result? -What value did Paul place on his brother in Christ? How do we know from this text? -Other passages to consider – Deut 6:4-5; Matt 18:1-6; Acts 15:19-29; Rom 14:13-23; 1 Cor 13; Gal 5:13-15; Phil 2:1-11. Digging Deeper: -How can I grow in knowledge without becoming filled with pride? -What responsibilities do I have to my brother for his spiritual growth? -How does getting to know my brother (including his background), help me to love him better? -What are some rights that I may be free to do as a Christian, but should be willing to give up if they cause my brother to sin?
