Kept By The Faithfulness of God

Today, we began a study in 1 Corinthians.  Almost half of the New Testament is written by the apostle Paul.  In his thirteen letters he almost begins every letter by telling us who he is in relation to God and who we are in relation to God.  This is quite different when it comes to the world.  So, in Paul’s letter to the church at Corinth he begins with calling the church to know who they are when they look back to remember and who they are when they look forward to the future.  This is where Paul begins as he addresses a church struggling with worldliness, yet he wants them to remember that God is faithful.
