Recognize the importance of unity ? Understand the source and the distribution of spiritual gifts ? Edify God while serving the Body of Christ Background: Corinth was a thriving commercial city in the Roman Empire. Located in pres ent day Greece, the citizens wor shiped many gods and had at least 12 operating temples during Paul's day. The church was founded by Paul during his Second Missionary Journey (AD 49-52). Some years later, he 5 received word from the house of Chloe thai there were problems in the church. They were a gifted church but they lacked the correct under standing of Christian theology and putting it into practice. This initial ejpistle addressed those issues that included factions (chapters 1 -4)* moral and ethical problems (chap ters 5-6), instruction on marriage (chapter 7), questionable practices (chapters 8-10), and instruction on worship and spiritual gifts (chap ters 11-14). Chapters 15 andl6 covered instruction on the Resurrection. In our lesson today, the apostle wanted them to have the correct interpretation of spiri tual gifts as they relate to unity. Lesson: Paul's major concern for the Corinthian Church is unity. It isn't easy for former polyfftfcis tic worshippers to grasp the new doctrine quickly. They have to be taught to think and act differently. Paul begins this discourse by stat ing that the Holy Spirit gives understanding. He knows that their divisions over spiritual gifts are due to ignorance. They are products of Greek culture and the Gentile world.
