Opposition! (A Study of I Corinthians 16:8-9)

Friends: If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you know that my friend Frank (in New Jersey) and I have been doing an email Bible study for over a year. We read the same chapter every day for a week — and then send a brief email of encouragement to each other. We’ve completed most of the epistles of the New Testament — and it’s been a great discipline for both of us.

We’re now finishing the book of I Corinthians. We started reading I Corinthians 15 on Easter Sunday! As we conclude I Corinthians, I want to post several outlines on the last chapter, chapter 16.

Opposition! (A Study of I Corinthians 16:8-9)

I.  Opposition to Us and the Gospel Should Not Surprise Us!

II. Opposition to Us and the Gospel Should Not Stop Us!

    >>> “a great door for effective work has opened to me”

III. Opposition to Us and the Gospel Should Not Isolate Us!

Today’s Challenge: Don’t let opposition surprise, stop, or isolate you from those who are also seeking to do the work! Trust God to encourage your heart as you labor for Him!
