Being Light and Heat

"

As we enter into the world of those around us, we should aim to bring both light and heat. Light with no heat will simply bring condemnation, but heat with no light will bring a soft sentimentalism that gives no power (or reason) to change. In other words, we are to speak the truth, but speak it in love. One without the other is not enough. ABOUT THIS 1 CORINTHIANS SERIES: Life is messy. Church life is messy. Every church has problems, because every church is made up of people. But God has called His people to come together to live life alongside each other and to encourage and carry each other, even amid difficult and challenging circumstances. The Apostle Paul planted a church in Corinth, Greece, and it very quickly became a church that dealt with many problems. They lacked maturity and wisdom, despite being a very gifted church. 1 Corinthians is a fatherly challenge and guide to them to help them get back on track and grow in the wisdom they need.
