PAUL ADDRESSES CHURCH PROBLEMS (1:1-6:20)
1 Corinthians 1:10 I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no division among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought.
Paul founded the church in Corinth on his second missionary journey. Eighteen months after he left, arguments and divisions arose, and some church members slipped back into immoral lifestyle. Paul wrote this letter to address the problems, to clear up confusion about right and wrong, and to remove the immorality among them. The Corinthian people had a reputation for jumping from fad to fad; Paul wanted to keep Christianity from degenerating into just another fad.
Lets Bring it Home: By saying “brothers,” Paul is emphasizing that all Christians are part of God’s family. Believers share a unity that rounds even deeper than that of blood brothers and sisters.
