bulletArticles & Background:
bullet "Epideictic Rhetoric in Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians 1 - 4," Joop F.M. Smit, Biblica 2003.
bullet"In this article an overview is given of the main characteristics of the epideictic genre and in the light of this it is argued that in 1 Cor 1–4 Paul presents the four types of this genre..."
bullet"1 Corinthians 1:10 - 4:21: Ideology of Power," Dr. Vernon Robbins. From The Tapestry of Early Christian Discourse: Rhetoric, Society and Ideology, London: Routledge, 1996.
bullet"In [Castelli's] view, Paul's discourse in 1 Corinthians 1-4 constructs a 'special position', 'a privileged position from which to speak' (p. 108) which interpreters need to assess carefully in relation to other voices in New Testament literature."
bullet "We Believe in Christian Perfection," Georgia Harkness, Chapter 8 in Beliefs That Count, 1961. At Religion Online.
bullet"God’s grace is manifested not only in the forgiveness of our sins but is also creatively redemptive, the power that works in us to make us perfect in love. Nothing short of perfection, Christlikeness in thought, word, and deed, can measure God’s loving purpose for us. It is our faith that the fundamental change wrought in the individual by regeneration is a dynamic process which by growth in grace moves toward "mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ." We may quench the Spirit and fall from grace but our divine destiny is perfect love and holiness in this life."
bullet "Restoring a Damaged Faith," Mary Tuomi Hammond, The Other Side Online, May/June 2000.
bullet"Thousands of Christians have left the church because it has wounded them. Others are one step from the door. How can we support those struggling to rebuild their faith?"
