Paul to the Church in Corinth |
Pastor Ted has analyzed and researched what we know today as the New Testament books 1 Corinthians and 2 Corinthians.
He determined that, over the years, they have become slightly jumbled versions of the original letters to the church in Corinth.
See how the letters to the Corinthians were probably originally organized, here. |

Scripture Readings |
Scripture selected from the Revised Common Lectionary is the basis for
many sermon topics, as well as church school lessons.
The Lectionary has a 3-year cycle, and includes readings from Old Testament, New Testament, and the Gospels.
The Revised Common Lectionary is ecumenical (is used by many Christian churches). See this FAQ for more info, and at the bottom of the FAQ page see links to PDA software.
