Arsy Varsy: Reclaiming The Gospel In First Corinthians

$15.95

In this insightful volume, Ross examines Paul’s confrontation with the Corinthian church, which, despite its success and growth, had replaced the wisdom of Christ with Greek philosophy and cultural ideals. This study contrasts worldly wisdom—both ancient Greek and modern American—with the transformative gospel of Christ. Through a thorough and passionate analysis of 1 Corinthians, Ross reveals the shortcomings of secular thought and illuminates the profound truth of the gospel, exposing the folly of worldly wisdom and highlighting the clarity and power of Christ’s teachings.

Description

Paul had a problem with the Christians at Corinth. They were a large, successful church. They were growing leaps and bounds. They thought they were doing great. But not Paul. Paul found that they had substituted the wisdom of the world (the philosophy and culture of the Greeks) for the wisdom of Christ (the philosophy and culture of the Bible). This volume contrasts the folly of Greek (and ultimately modern American) worldly wisdom with the gospel of Christ. Stones are turned over and small-minded creatures that thrive in the dark scatter in the light of Christ. Ross brings Paul’s struggle to light with clarity and passion that leaves the worldly nowhere to hide in this panoptic treatment of First Corinthians.
