3 ways to preach 1 Corinthians 12:12-31

\n
\n

Unity in Diversity

\n

Just as a human body is one entity composed of many parts, so is the Church—a single body with diverse members. Each member has a unique function, and together, they form a cohesive whole.

\n
\n
\n

Valuing One Another

\n

Focus on the necessity of appreciating and honoring each member of the congregation, regardless of their role or perceived status. Underscore that all are interconnected and vital.

\n
\n
\n

Interdependence

\n

Highlight the concept that every member of the church is interdependent, much like the organs in a body rely on each other to function properly. Encourage believers to support one another.

Finding Peace in Tumultuous Times

\n

Peace is a universal human desire, especially during challenging moments. Biblical peace is not merely the absence of conflict, but a profound inner tranquility that arises from a right relationship with God. It's the assurance of His sovereign rule, even amidst life's storms, and the fruit of the Spirit's work in the believer's heart.

\n \n

Peace as a Fruit of the Spirit: Galatians 5:22-23 lists \"peace\" among the fruits of the Spirit, highlighting its connection to righteousness, joy, and love. True peace, therefore, is not a worldly achievement but a divine gift received through the work of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life.

\n \n

The Prince of Peace: Isaiah 9:6 prophesies that Jesus Christ is the \"Prince of Peace.\" He brings reconciliation between God and humanity, offering forgiveness of sins and the assurance of eternal life. This reconciliation brings a deep and abiding peace that surpasses all human understanding.

\n \n

Peace in the Midst of Storms: While the world may experience turmoil and unrest, believers can experience a unique inner peace that rests upon the unshakeable foundation of their relationship with God. This peace is not a denial of suffering, but a confident assurance in God's sovereignty and His ultimate purposes.

\n \n

For Deeper Exploration

\n
    \n
  • Examine the biblical passages that speak of peace: Explore passages like Psalm 23, Philippians 4:6-7, and John 14:27.
  • \n
  • Consider the practical implications of a life lived in peace: How does the pursuit of peace impact our relationships, our work, and our engagement with the world?
  • \n
  • Seek to cultivate a deeper relationship with God: Through prayer, Bible study, and fellowship with other believers, we can experience the fullness of the peace that Christ offers.

Sermon

If You Love Me...

Theme

Show your love by your actions.

Object

A picture of your mother or make a "Top Ten" poster.

Scripture

Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. John 14:23 (NIV)

Can anyone guess who this is in this picture? It is my mother. My mother is in heaven with Jesus now, but I still think of her often. I loved my mother very much and I know that she liked to hear me say, "Mom, I love you!" Do you think your mother likes to hear you tell her that you love her? Of course she does! But do you know what your mother likes even more? She likes for you to show her that you love her.

How can you show your mother that you love her? Well, I made up a list of what I think might be the top ten ways to show your mother that you love her.

  1. Make your bed
  2. Pick up your clothes
  3. Keep your room clean
  4. Take out the trash
  5. Help her fix dinner
  6. Set the table
  7. Help with the dishes
  8. Don't fuss with your brothers or sisters
  9. Give her a gift that you made yourself
  10. Obey her when she tells you to do something

So remember, your mom likes to hear you say, "I love you," but she likes it even more when you show her that you love her.

Do you love Jesus? I'm sure you do. Do you think Jesus likes to hear you say, "I love you?" I know He does. But he likes it even better when you show Him that you love Him. How do you do that? He told us how. He said, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teachings." The Bible is full of things that Jesus taught us. You show him that you love him by obeying his teaching.

When you leave here today, don't forget to tell your mom that you love her, but more important, show her that you love her. As we worship today, tell Jesus that you love him, but more important, remember to show him that you love him by doing the things that he taught us.

Dear Lord, we have come to your house today to say, "I love you." Help us to go out of here today and show you that we love you by obeying your teachings. Amen.
