Jeremiah: “Stop Telling God No” (Jeremiah 1:1-3)

13:581 Corinthians 1:9
Now, you might say to me, well, pastor, this is Old Testament stuff. Like, God doesn't do this anymore. Hold that thought. Because the apostle Paul is wrestling with this same struggle in 1 Corinthians chapter 1, verse 9 to a Corinthian church that's saying to the world, hey, our life's complicated. This is what the apostle Paul says to the church. He says, God is faithful. You were called by him into fellowship with his son, Jesus…

4:061 Corinthians 1
but i couldn't because you're people of the flesh as babies in christ infants loved by god yes called by god first corinthians chapter 1 yes redeem people yes but still acting like a child paul says to this church you're alive but you're stuck and god wants something so much more than that for your life
13:201 Corinthians 1
…now this would have because in romans chapter 8 verse 9 in the flesh is a person who's unconverted the person does not know christ and then some of you should raise your hands and say well pastor you we read first corinthians chapter 1 last week and paul says that they are called as saints sanctified in jesus christ these are not unregenerate people they are redeemed people so how can they be of the flesh that is the point

6:521 Corinthians 1:1–3
First Corinthians chapter 1, verses 1 through 3. Paul says this, by inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Paul called an apostle of Christ. Now, you want to circle that word called because we're going to get back to that. By God's will and Sothenes, our brother, to the church of God at Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called as saints with all those in every place,

27:141 Corinthians 1:18
First Corinthians 1 18 says for the word of the cross, the gospel is foolishness to those who are perishing, but it is the power of God to us who are being saved. I shared the gospel with a guy I worked with many years ago. He was probably…

25:571 Corinthians 1
He said, Zechariah is reminding us that Jesus is the business end of God's salvation. He is the business end. Paul would say it like this in 1 Corinthians 1, 16. He says, for I am not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation. It is the horn of God's salvation. Jesus Christ, when he died on the cross, he is the business end. He is the power of God's salvation to all who believe.
Who’s Your King?: Sin and Consequences (2 Sam 12:11)

…from a tree and we're reminded in Deuteronomy that cursed is anyone who hangs from a tree, whether on a cross or whether by hair. And so we have this predicament. Now this is the reminder for Absalms in our group. 1 Corinthians 1, verse 27 says, God has chosen what is foolish to the world to shame the wise. God has chosen what is weak in the world to shame the strong. In order that it is written, let no one who boasts, boast in the Lord.

24:561 Corinthians 1
So if you are forsaking the assembling of the sacred gathering, you are not obeying Jesus Christ. That should be enough. But if that's not enough, 1 Corinthians 1, verse 2. Paul is writing. He says, to the church of God at Corinth. Okay, you said that's not enough. Prove it again. I'm glad you asked. Galatians. Verse 2. And to the brothers who are with me, to the churches of Galatia.
The JESUS Story: It Is Finished

4:481 Corinthians 1:18
And they still don't fully understand the magnitude and the need of the cross. Later on in the New Testament, Paul says this about the cross in 1 Corinthians 1.18. He says, for the word of the cross, today's message, the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing. So if you think, well, this doesn't make any sense, how would God die on a cross? That's what the world says.
The JESUS Story: Burn the Boats – The Cost of Following Jesus

16:551 Corinthians 1:23
He said this about the gospel. He said, we preach Christ crucified. He didn't say rainbows and unicorns. We preach Christ crucified in 1 Corinthians 1.23. A stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Gentiles. You see, Christ himself is the stumbling block. But we are reminded, listen, you cannot make the gospel palatable for a world. That is living in darkness and sin.
You want me to do what?

15:051 Corinthians 1:1
It didn't exist. So I would just say this, if you ever want to lose a war, this is how you go about it. If you want to lose a war without the Lord's help, you follow Joshua 6. But something is going on. This is what the Lord is showing us by faith. God does not play by man's rules. God does not play by man's rules. Listen to 1 Corinthians 1. 1 Corinthians says, God has chosen what is foolish to the world to shame the wise.
