Appearances Can Be Deceiving
I Corinthians 4:8-13
March 7, 2007

The Corinthian church was very gifted and yet very carnal. Corinth was a wicked city, just like Las Vegas. They struggled with the carnality all around them and it was creeping into their church. Instead of repenting of their sin they took pride in the spiritual gifts that God had given them and even bragged about how spiritual they were. We must be on guard against carnality in our lives, in our families, and in our church.

Application steps:
I will not tolerate hypocrisy in my life
I will be serious in my personal battle to strive against sin
I will draw near to God with my heart not just my lips
I will live for Jesus no matter what the cost
