Prayerfully Feasting Together.   June 2, 2013 – II Corinthians 1     Return to Admenu Home or Admenu’s Alternate Site       Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue the Feast in II Corinthians 1. Matthew Henrys Concise breaks down chapter one as follows; “The apostle blesses God for comfort in, and deliverance out of troubles. (1-11) He professes his own and his fellow-labourers' integrity. (12-14) Gives reasons for his not coming to them. (15-24)” - Matthew Henrys Concise. Overview, II Corinthians ; “The second epistle to the Corinthians probably was written about a year after the first. Its contents are closely connected with those of the former epistle. The manner in which the letter St. Paul formerly wrote had been received, is particularly noticed; this was such as to fill his heart with gratitude to God, who enabled him fully to discharge his duty towards them. Many had shown marks of repentance, and amended their conduct, but others still followed their false teachers; and as the apostle delayed his visit, from his unwillingness to treat them with severity, they charged him with levity and change of conduct. Also, with pride, vain-glory, and severity, and they spake of him with contempt. In this epistle we find the same ardent affection towards the disciples at Corinth, as in the former, the same zeal for the honour of the gospel, and the same boldness in giving Christian reproof. The first six chapters are chiefly practical: the rest have more reference to the state of the Corinthian church, but they contain many rules of general application.”  Matthew Henrys Concise, II Corinthians.  4 I wonder what Paul would have to say if he were writing a letter to our community? Would he be warning us Against False Teachers; “3 As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine, 4 nor to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculations rather than the stewardship from God that is by faith. 5 The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.” 1 Timothy 1:3-5 ESV.  I will not speculate as to what the content of his letter to us might contain.  He might just refer us to his second letter to the Corinthians.  Let’s continue to prayerfully Feast together and allow God’s Word to nourish our spirit.   Jesus wants you?  Do you hear Him calling?  Do you want to love and be loved?
