The Book of1 Corinthians
New Testament · Book 46 of 66 · 16 chapters · 437 verses
1 Corinthians is pastoral surgery on a gifted, divided, messy church — addressing factions, immorality, lawsuits, worship chaos, and doubts about resurrection. It contains the love chapter read at countless weddings and the Bible's fullest teaching on spiritual gifts and the resurrection body.
