thians. Dr. Bitner has written a thorough study of the subject titled, Paul s Political Strategy in 1 Corinthians 1–4: Constitution and Covenant (Cambridge University Press). In 1 Corinthians 1:1–4:6, we witness a collision of constitutions. This clash is the result of Paul conte

1 Corinthians 1:2 · Camden Bucey

That’s a good way to put it. That’s a great way to put it. And, and of course we should reiterate that many people that are, are eschewing a sort of causal priority between justification and sanctification are working with, at least the best of them, are working with an understanding of sanctificati

1 Corinthians 1:2 · Lane G. Tipton

Oh. 1 Corinthians. Hebrews 10.10. 1 Corinthians 1.2. 1 Corinthians 6.10 and 11. And then Romans 6 is the Locust Classic as understood properly.

1 Corinthians 1:2 · Camden Bucey

Especially the 1 Corinthians 1.2 is a perfect passive participle that is a past and over and done with event that has present effects. There’s no way to understand that other than, in my opinion, and in many Reformed opinions, but by the category of what we call definitive sanctification. So I would

1 Corinthians 1:9 · Lane G. Tipton

Christian anti-embardianism remains to this day. But in a Reformed soteriology, effectual calling is the event by which God the Father, in 1 Corinthians 1.9, by the Spirit, effects communion, union, koinoneon, union with Christ.

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

1.30 I love, too. 1 Corinthians 1.30. 1 Corinthians 1.30 is a great one.

1 Corinthians 1:9 · Glen Clary

So in verse 30, those whom he predestined, he also called. Because what it means to be called there, divinely called or summoned by God, is to be called into fellowship with Christ, as he defines it in 1 Corinthians 1.9. So we are called into union with Christ. We are called into communion, koinonia

with the Lord by fellowship with the promised or now crucified and ascended Messiah brings about a state of affairs in which in the Lord it is said of us that we are righteous and there is a provision. For instance, 1 Corinthians 1.10, Paul says, Jesus has become wisdom from God. That is what? Our r

1 Corinthians 1:21 · Greg Reynolds

And I can remember in the early days when people would, when I’d talk to them about preaching and they’d ask me about my thesis, they would say, when they heard the word medium or media, they immediately would misunderstand 1 Corinthians 1.21, where Paul, and this is a New King James Version quote,

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

Especially when you start looking at, I don’t know, 1 Corinthians 1.30, you start looking at the biblical theology of this and God’s progressive revelation. Right. You know, in my opinion, and I’m not the only one, but you look at Proverbs 8 and personified wisdom, that’s none other than the Lord Je

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

The Lord possessed me at the beginning of his work, but it could be translated, The Lord created me. And then they make the connection that Lady Wisdom is really referring to Jesus Christ, maybe through 1 Corinthians 1.30 and other passages. But that’s another passage that they use as a proof text,

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Marcus Johnson

he means an actual vital communion with Christ himself. There’s no condemnation for those who are in him. That means there’s condemnation for those who are outside of him. So to achieve or be in the blessed state of not being condemned requires that we be in Jesus Christ. The other that comes to min

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Marcus Johnson

He thought that 1 Corinthians 1.30 was really a biblical shorthand for the whole richness and depth of the gospel that God has placed us in Jesus Christ, who is our wisdom from God. He is our righteousness. He is our sanctification, our righteousness, and our redemption. So there, again, there’s thi

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

Yeah. Yeah. Especially when you start looking at, I don’t know, 1 Corinthians 1.30, you start looking at the biblical theology of this and God’s progressive revelation. Right. You know, in my opinion, and I’m not the only one, but you look at Proverbs 8 and personified wisdom, that’s none other than

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

I don’t know. I wonder if many of them would have read it as just a figure of speech or if it was a thing of the day, the way they wrote. But it’s so beautiful to see God’s purpose that not only is this a literary device, but it actually has come to be. First Corinthians 1.30. He has become for us w

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

And we see that if we are fallen in Adam, then how does our knowledge look? Well, it’s, we are darkened in our understanding. We suppress the truth in unrighteousness. Well, what if we’re in Christ? Well, Christ has become for us wisdom from God. 1 Corinthians 1.30 or all the other aspects where we’

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Lane G. Tipton

You know, it’s right here that I start to hear a conflation of Historia and Ordo Salutis categories. Justification is something, as Calvin says, if you want it, you must first possess Christ. Christ has become for us righteousness and holiness and redemption, 1 Corinthians 1.30.

1 Corinthians 1:30 · Camden Bucey

Yeah. I love 1 Corinthians 1.30, which says that Christ has become for us wisdom from God. And we, of course, see him in the Old Testament as well as the fulfillment of wisdom, even in Proverbs. Proverbs 8 speaks of lady wisdom, but it’s not at all inappropriate to say that Jesus Christ is wisdom in
