*YOU ARE DIFFERENT!*
HAVE YOU NOTICED THAT WE'RE DIFFERENT?
JUST LIKE SNOWFLAKES,
THERE'S NO TWO OF US THAT ARE EXACTLY THE SAME.
I THINK GOD REALLY LIKES VARIETY.
____________________________________________________________
HAS ANYONE HERE BEEN WATCHING THAT PROGRAM CALLED,
*AMERICA'S GOT TALENT?*
HAVE YOU SEEN HOW MANY DIFFERENT KINDS OF ACTS THERE ARE?
ONE ACT IS A GROUP OF GUYS THAT JUMP AND FLIP ALL OVER THE STAGE,
THE NEXT IS A LITTLE GIRL WHO SINGS.
ANOTHER IS A GROUP THAT DOES CHOREOGRAPHED MOVEMENTS ALL TOGETHER.
AND THEN THERE'S A YOUNG MAN WHO PLAYS THE GUITAR.
THEY'RE ALL DIFFERENT AND YET THEY'RE ALL TALENTED.
YOU MY FRIEND ARE DIFFERENT!

\\ *INTRODUCTION: \\ * \\ 1. HAVE YOU EVER COME ACROSS SOMEONE THAT HAD A HARD TIME GETTING IT RIGHT?
\\ \\ ILL NOTEBOOK: STUPID (X) \\ \\ TWO FRIENDS RENTED A BOAT AND WENT FISHING IN A LAKE.
THE FIRST DAY, THEY CAUGHT 30 FISH.
AS THEY WERE GETTING READY TO GO INTO SHORE,
ONE GUY SAID TO THE OTHER,
"LET’S MARK THIS SPOT
SO WE CAN COME HERE AGAIN TOMORROW."
\\ \\ THE NEXT DAY, WHEN THEY WERE DRIVING TO RENT THE BOAT,
THE SAME GUY SAID, "DID YOU MARK THAT SPOT?" \\ \\ HIS FRIEND REPLIED,
"YEAH, I PUT A BIG ’X’ ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BOAT." \\ \\ THE FIRST ONE SAID, "THAT WAS DUMB!
WHAT IF WE DON’T GET THE SAME BOAT TODAY?" \\ \\ SOME PEOPLE HAVE TROUBLE GETTING IT RIGHT, DON’T THEY? \\ \\
IN THE FIRST LETTER TO THE CORINTHIANS,
WE FIND THAT THEY HAD TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING
THE REAL NATURE OF THE CHURCH.
\\ THEY TREATED THE CHURCH AS A HUMAN ORGANIZATION,
LIKE A CLUB.
LIKE SOMETHING THAT WAS CREATED BY MAN.
BUT THEY WERE WRONG.
\\ JOHN MACARTHUR HAS SAID,
“IT (THE CHURCH) IS A SUPERNATURAL ORGANISM,
CREATED, ESTABLISHED, EMPOWERED,
AND LED BY THE LORD HIMSELF.”
\\ \\
BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE WERE NOT SPIRIT LED,
WHEN IT CAME TO HOW THE CHURCH OUGHT TO WORK,
THEY KEPT MESSING IT UP. \\ \\
FOR EXAMPLE… \\ \\
2. THE CORINTHIANS DIDN'T HAVE IT RIGHT WHEN IT CAME TO WORSHIP.
\\ \\ THIS CHURCH NEEDED HELP,
BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT GOD-CENTERED.
THEY WERE SELF-CENTERED.
\\ \\
BECAUSE OF THEIR OWN SNOBBISHNESS,
THEY WERE CHARACTERIZED BY DIVISION.
\\ \\
THEY WEREN'T SHOWING THE LOVE AND UNITY
THAT IS SUPPOSED TO CHARACTERIZE
BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST.
\\ \\ \\
WE CAN SEE BACK IN CHAPTER 11, THAT… \\ \\ 3. THEY HAD BEEN STRUGGLING WITH ISSUES OF AUTHORITY.
\\ \\ IN FACT, HAD PROBLEMS WITH BOTH AUTHORITY AND EQUALITY.
\\ THEY WERE STRIVING WITH THE ISSUES OF HEADSHIP.
\\ THEY WERE IGNORING CULTURAL SENSITIVITIES THAT WERE HURTING THEIR ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE THE GOOD NEWS.
\\ AND, THEY WERE FAILING TO UNDERSTAND AND APPLY THE FACT THAT GOD WAS IN CHARGE OF THEIR LIVES.
\\ \\ AS WE ALSO STUDIED IN I CORINTHIANS 11 THAT… \\ \\ 4. THEY HAD BEEN ACTING SELFISHLY DURING THE AGAPE MEAL.
\\ \\ WHEN THE CORINTHIANS WERE MEETING TOGETHER FOR THE LORD’S SUPPER, THEY WERE DOING IT IN AN UNWORTHY MANNER.
\\ THOSE THAT WERE BETTER OFF FINANCIALLY WERE ARRIVING FIRST.
\\ INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR ONE ANOTHER, THEY WERE GOING AHEAD AND EATING THE MEAL, WHILE THOSE THAT ARRIVED LATER WERE LEFT WITH NOTHING TO EAT.
\\ THEIR FOCUS WAS ON THEMSELVES, NOT ON JESUS, AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
\\ \\ NOW, WHEN WE COME TO I CORINTHIANS 12, WE DISCOVER THAT THEIR WORSHIP SERVICES WERE A MESS. \\ FOR… \\ \\ 5. THEY HAD BEEN FAVORING CERTAIN GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT OVER OTHERS.
\\ \\ THEY WERE EXPERIENCING THE SPIRIT, BUT THIS DOESN’T MEAN THEY WERE SPIRIT LED.
\\ IN FACT, THEIR PRACTICE WAS IRRESPONSIBLE.
\\ THEIR WORSHIP WAS CHAOTIC.
\\ WITH A FANATICAL EMPHASIS ON THE SPECTACULAR, THEY WERE CLEARLY MISUSING THE GIFTS.
\\ IN PARTICULAR, THE SPIRITUAL GIFT OF TONGUES WAS BEING USED IN SUCH A WAY, THAT THERE WAS CONFUSION INSTEAD OF CLARITY.
\\ THERE WAS AN UNINTELLIGIBLE COMMUNICATION THAT FED AN UNGODLY ATTITUDE OF SUPERIORITY.
\\ THOSE THAT WERE CLAIMING TO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE OF ANGELS WERE CLAIMING A SPIRITUAL SUPERIORITY.
\\ BUT WHAT PAUL IS GOING TO DISCUSS IS THAT THERE ARE NO SUPERIOR GIFTS, AND THUS, THERE ARE NO SUPERIOR PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH.
\\ WHAT IS TO BE VALUED ARE THOSE THAT ARE ENGAGED IN KINGDOM WORK BY VIRTUE OF THEIR USE OF THEIR SPIRITUAL GIFTS.
\\ \\ SO… \\ \\ 6. WE WILL FIND IN OUR STUDY OF I CORINTHIANS 12:1-6 THREE ISSUES THAT PAUL DISCUSSES AS HE BEGINS THE SUBJECT OF SPIRITUAL GIFTS.
\\ \\ OUR STUDY: \\ \\ \\ I. THE FIRST ISSUE IS DUMBNESS (1-2).
\\ \\ [1] NOW CONCERNING SPIRITUAL GIFTS, BROTHERS, I DO NOT WANT YOU TO BE UNINFORMED.
[2] YOU KNOW THAT WHEN YOU WERE PAGANS YOU WERE LED ASTRAY TO MUTE IDOLS, HOWEVER YOU WERE LED.
\\ \\ ILL NOTEBOOK: IGNORANT (IGNORAMUSES) \\ \\ ONE DAY OUR PROFESSOR WAS DISCUSSING A PARTICULARLY COMPLICATED CONCEPT.
