Bible Reading Challenge Week 15 Day 2

Our reading challenge for the day is 1 Corinthians 11-16. I’ll hit a few highlights. You make comments too and fill in the gaps. What strikes you as specially significant?

1 Corinthians 11 - This is a good opportunity to meditate on the Lord’s provision of his body and blood in communion. See that his body was broken and his blood was shed for us and is effectual when received by faith. We either eat to our nourishment or to our condemnation.

1 Corinthians 12-14 - There’s one Holy Spirit who builds up his people. He does it in an orderly way. Though the saints are different from one another, each is important in God’s kingdom.

1 Corinthians 15 - The resurrection of Jesus is our hope for the future. He has conquered death and will bring us to life as well.

1 Corinthians 16 - Even as we rejoice in considering the resurrection from the dead, our charitable deeds are important. We don’t want to forget either.
