Big Babies

Trinity Church of Portland - Sermons

This morning we arrived at our fifth sermon in our current series, Christian Living In The Current of Culture. This sermon titled “Big Babies” was preached by Pastor Thomas Terry from 1 Corinthians 3:1-9.

Because the Corinthians were living with an attitude of spiritual superiority, Paul starts this section with a reproof telling the Corinthians he could not affirm them as spiritual people but rather as people of the flesh. They were spiritual babies living as people who were spiritually immature without an appetite for the deeper things of God. Many Christians in our context have no appetite for the things of God, instead they substitute worldly wisdom and are apathetic toward God’s wisdom.

If you are not growing in spiritual maturity receive this reproof and lay aside your worldliness, apathy, and stop feeding your flesh and instead turn to the Lord—ask him to help you change, and build you up in his word.
