Unity: A Study in 1 CorinthiansCampione

What does it say?
Israel’s past failures served as examples to keep them from desiring evil things.
What does it mean?
Israel’s history of highs and lows in their faithfulness toward God was preserved as a warning to future generations. They claimed to be God’s people but easily gave in to evil desires, immorality, and idolatry. They even presumed upon God’s goodness. Paul warned the Corinthian believers not to think they had arrived in their spiritual life. The same temptations their fathers faced are universal and timeless. Then, four words provided the answer they needed, “but God is faithful.” Paul gives two encouragements: look for God’s way of escape, and let every action glorify Him.
How should I respond?
We’ve all heard that those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Parents never want their children to make the same mistakes they’ve made. Yet every generation has those who fall prey to the same things that snared the last generation. What temptation is currently looming in front of you? God promises that there is a way out. What is your family history in the same area of temptation? How can you learn from their failure or victory? Memorize verse 13 to help when you are tempted. Then, look for God’s way out. God has not promised to shield you from temptation, but He will be faithful to see you through it. Will you determine to turn to Him when tempted?

The church at Corinth was plagued by internal division and sinful derision. Paul provides the only solution potent enough for their disunity and spiritual disruptions: “Jesus Christ and Him crucified” (1 Corinthians 1:10). 1 Corinthians reminds us that by focusing on Jesus and His glorious resurrection, we too will “be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the word of the Lord” (1 Corinthians 15:58).
