1 Corinthians 1

United in Christ, Rooted in His Wisdom

Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 1:1–31

In this opening chapter, the Apostle Paul reminds the Corinthian believers that their identity is found in Jesus Christ, not in human leaders, personal achievements, or worldly wisdom.

Paul addresses divisions within the church and calls believers to unity through the gospel. He emphasizes that God's wisdom is revealed through the cross of Christ, even when the world considers it foolishness.

Central Truth: Our unity, identity, and strength come from Jesus Christ, not from human wisdom or status.
