Merely Human

Slide2.JPG

In today’s passage, Paul accuses the Corinthian church of acting “merely human,” which is to say that they are acting as if the Spirit of God does not dwell in them. This is no small accusation. Our faith invites us into a new way of being human. Not that we are no longer human, but that our humanity is met with the power of the Holy Spirit empowering us to be more like Christ. If Paul were a guest preacher this morning, would he speak to you as he spoke to the Corinthians? Or is the Spirit transforming you day-by-day?
