1 & 2 Corinthians: Quick Summary

[csberry]

1 Corinthians has Paul voicing his concern about the divisions and sexual immorality he's heard about the group in Corinth. Paul sought to snuff divisions individuals were making on which apostle or disciple of Jesus's they followed. He told them that he didn't baptize anyone in his name, but in Jesus's name. He also discussed how the church needs to be a support group for those within it. Rebuke and forgive those sinning amongst them and yet cast out those that can't overcome their evil.

2 Corinthians was a bit awkward to me. It seemed particularly personal in Paul's defense of his ministry, how he conducts himself, and the negative things he's heard others say about him.
