Temple of God – 1 Corinthians 3:11-17

Pastor Chris Parker

It is a reflective and instructional psalm by King David that explores the themes of forgiveness, repentance, and divine guidance. It begins with a proclamation of the blessings that come from having one’s sins forgiven by God and emphasizes the relief and joy experienced after confessing wrongdoing. David recounts his personal struggle when he kept silent about his sins, which caused deep emotional and physical suffering. Once he confessed, he felt the weight lifted and experienced God’s forgiveness.

Paul exemplifies the boldness and commitment required in teaching the gospel. Despite facing suffering and opposition, he and his companions remained steadfast, speaking the truth with sincerity and without seeking personal gain.

This story highlights the virtues of hospitality, generosity, and faith. The woman’s kindness to Elisha opened the door to blessings, as Elisha later prophesied that she would have a son, fulfilling a deep longing she had not even expressed openly. The narrative is a beautiful reminder of how acts of kindness and hospitality, especially to servants of God, can lead to unexpected blessings.
