Paul had taught in Corinth the "Gospel of Christ Jesus" during his ministry, which is the "Truth of Father God's Word." After Paul left Corinth, others came and taught either their version of Father's Word, or, truth was taught and the people did not understand it, therefore, there was much confusion occurring regarding the "True Gospel." As it was, so it is today as the Biblically illiterate pulpit gurus teach their version of the "True Gospel" with their doctrines and traditions, and as a result, those calling themselves christians, too lazy to study on their own, have a mind full of babble and confusion, with their many denominations and accepted false teachings. There is one "True Gospel" which are the teachings of Father God through "His Holy Word and Christ Jesus, our Living Word." Therefore, Paul has returned to Corinth once again to teach what "thus saith our LORD" and this is why in the next ten "Verses", Paul will present the name of our "Lord Jesus Christ" who is our "Living Word" so it is understood, without question, that Paul is teaching the very Word of Father God and not teaching his version of the truth.
I Corinthians 1:1 says, "Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother," "Paul" means "small or little." "Sosthenes" means "savior of his nation" and he was the chief ruler of the synagogue in Corinth [Acts 18:17] who taught according to the Truth of Father's Word. Paul, who always loved Father, was called to teach not of his own will [Acts - Chapter 26], rather through the will of Father God Almighty when he was struck down on the road to Damascus.
I Corinthians 1:2 says, "Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:" "Jesus" means "YAHOVAH is salvation, the Son of God, the Savior of mankind, God incarnated." "Christ" means "Anointed One." "Lord" means "Master." "Corinth" means "satiated {satisfied}." "Sanctified" means "to separate from profane things and dedicate to God." "Saints" means the "very elect." Paul, through Christ Jesus our Living Word, is teaching to those "chosen {very elect} of our Father God", to hear with understanding truth by the blessing of the Holy Spirit, studying faithfully, receiving understanding only our LORD can give. Once that blessing of knowledge is sealed within the minds of the very elect, they are to continue to spread the "Good Gospel", planting "Seeds of Truth" for any with eyes to see and ears to hear to accept within their hearts and minds.
I Corinthians 1:3 says, "Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ." This is Paul's greeting as He acknowledges "Father God Almighty" in the "Precious Name of Christ Jesus." "Grace" means "unmerited favor; of the merciful kindness by which God, exerting his holy influence upon souls, turns them to Christ, keeps, strengthens, increases them in christian faith, knowledge, affection, and kindles them to the exercise of the christian virtues." It is through the "Blood of Christ Jesus" that mankind receives forgiveness of all sins when approaching the "Throne of Father God Almighty."
I Corinthians 1:4 says, "I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;" All grace comes from Father God through Christ Jesus, and not because of, or, through the pulpit gurus.
I Corinthians 1:5 says, "That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;" All knowledge comes from Father God through Christ Jesus, and understanding will certainly spiritually enhance your relationship with our LORD as you love Him and come to the knowledge of truth [Proverbs 1:7]. How anyone can live in this world today without Father God is a mystery. Pleasing our LORD is the only way to enrich your life, and in order to please Father, it is necessary to have knowledge of His Word, which is understanding the teachings of Christ Jesus wherein you are wealthy with spiritual wisdom. When you are under the veil of Father God, even when obstacles flood your road, our Lord Jesus Christ will lead you over, around and through them when you know to work hard, study faithfully and place your faith in our LORD who created you for His pleasure [Revelation 4:11]. Christ Jesus has given us power over all our enemies [Luke - Chapter 10], including satan, and this is why you should have the whole armor of Father God [Ephesians - Chapter 6] within your heart and mind.
I Corinthians 1:6 says, "Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:" If you love Father God and listen to the teachings of Christ Jesus, there are no mysteries within the Word of our LORD.
I Corinthians 1:7 says, "So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:" While waiting for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ as "King of kings and Lord of lords", there is work for those who have the seal of truth within their minds. Father God will lead you to know and understand what your gift is in the spreading of the "Good Gospel" until that Seventh Trumpet sounds and our Lord returns to claim his bride {very elect/elect of mankind}. It is necessary to understand that your gift, be it teaching, singing, a smile, should be used always to glorify Father God and you can only exalt Father to others if you personally have the Truth of His Word within your own heart and mind.
I Corinthians 1:8 says, "Who shall also confirm you unto the end, [that ye may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ." "Confirm" means "make sure." When you are a witness against satan, the first/false christ cast to this earth for the greatest deception ever to be known to mankind, Christ Jesus will keep you from all hurt, harm and danger until His return. "Day of our Lord Jesus Christ" is the one thousand year teaching, which is the "Millennium [II Peter - Chapter 3]." If Father God calls you home to the Heavenly Age before the return of Christ Jesus, "absent from the body is present with our LORD [II Corinthians - Chapter 5].2 Corinthians - Chapter 5."
I Corinthians 1:9 says, "God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord." Father God said in Hebrews 13:5, "[Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." Understand that Father's very elect are not volunteers, they are "called/ chosen [Ephesians - Chapter 1]" to be in the service of, planting seeds of truth for and through our Lord Jesus Christ.
I Corinthians 1:10 says, "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment." If the very elect do not teach Father's Word exactly as it is written, there will be division and confusion among christians. It is through false teachings of the Biblically illiterate that all the various denominations have formed. Babble and confusion breeds separation and with that split, doctrines and traditions become the prime teachings throughout the world in houses of "beth-aven", which means "house of vanity." Father God's Spirit is not in a "house of vanity", satan's spirit is. Father's Word has one meaning and is not up for individual interpretation. This is why "Father God said" to teach His Word, Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse, as Christ Jesus taught.
I Corinthians 1:11 says, "For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them [which are of the house] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you." "Chloe" means "a green herb/a christian woman {wisdom [Proverbs - Chapter 31]} of Corinth." "Contentions" means "strife, debate." In this "House of Bethel/Chloe", established by Paul, debates relating to the Word of Father God were brewing, which is not a good thing, and Paul was there to put a stop to it since there is only one True Word and that is "thus saith our LORD."
I Corinthians 1:12 says, "Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ." "Apollos" means "to put out of the way entirely, abolish, put an end to ruin {Biblical illiteracy}." "Cephas" means "stone {Peter}." This is how denominations are formed. In this one church, the congregation is split, some under Paul, some under Apollos or Cephas, and others under Christ Jesus. "All of the congregation" should be under the veil of the teachings of "Christ Jesus", since Paul, Apollos and Cephas are vessels of Father God to spread the "Good Gospel", which is planting seeds of truth by teaching "Christ Jesus, our Living Word." You are not a christian if you are following or committing to a denomination of a pulpit guru establishing "their church" with "their doctrines and traditions." Worship Father God and Christ Jesus "only."
I Corinthians 1:13 says, "Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? " Christ Jesus is not division or denominations. Was it Paul who stretched out his arms on that cross at Calvary? I think not. For it was our Lord Jesus Christ, and He only who stretched our His arms on that cross for all of humankind, our "Perfect Sacrifice, Father God Himself personified in the Flesh." All who are baptized are christened in the "Name of Christ Jesus by the presence of His Holy Spirit."
I Corinthians 1:14 says, "I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;" "Crispus" means "curled." "Gaius" means "lord." Both of these men were true teachers of Father God's Word. Paul is saying that he baptized these two men only and he is thankful to Father God for blessing his spirit to be under Father's will since the people are all confused, following man when they should be following Christ Jesus.
I Corinthians 1:15 says, "Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name." Paul is happy that he did not baptize those following after him, Apollos or Cephas in their ignorance since these people cannot say they are following Paul because they were baptized in is name. This is the harm caused by division with denominations since they replace Father God and Christ Jesus with the doctrines and traditions of pulpit gurus who were not even chosen of our LORD.
I Corinthians 1:16 says, "And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other." "Steohanas" means "crowned." Paul is naming those he knows he baptized, and they are following the Word of Father God Almighty. Paul is saying he is not sure of others he may have baptized, nonetheless, not at any time did he claim to or baptize anyone in his own name. Paul baptized in the "Name of Christ Jesus only."
I Corinthians 1:17 says, "For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect." Paul is saying Christ Jesus did not lay a path for him to baptize anyone or to display his fantastic ability to be a great speaker, demonstrating he is an exceptional presenter of words meaning nothing . Paul was sent forth by Christ Jesus to plant seeds of truth for all those with ears to hear and eyes to see of what "thus saith our LORD", and accept those teachings with understanding. Paul is letting the people know, and those of this generation had best clearly hear since their own pulpits gurus are speaking and teaching eloquent nothingness, that he may be on the bold and even crude side when teaching, however you can rest assured, that which comes from his mouth is by the unction of the Holy Spirit and not of his own doctrines and traditions, so that your eyes and ears can be opened to "Truth" and the "Salvation offered from Christ Jesus" is accepted with a pure and understanding heart.
I Corinthians 1:18 says, "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." Mankind is saved by our "Lord Jesus Christ on that Cross at Calvary" since He defeated death, who is satan, and you have those people who are offended by the cross and even our Lord Jesus Christ Himself. There are people who do not even want to hear the teachings of the sacrifice our Lord Jesus Christ made for all of humankind since it is offensive. Too bad; have a nice trip straight into the arms of satan as the instead of jesus and risk your soul to be blotted right out with that son of perditon. We are thankful to our Father God Almighty for all those who magnify Him from the depths of their hearts and souls for "His Beloved Son and the Cross." Without that "Perfect Offering of Love", there would be no repentance for our sins at the "Throne of Father God Almighty." We are thankful for the "Power of God" who promised never to leave or forsake His children, for being Faithful and True, for opening up His arms to all who will come unto our LORD for that freedom that is in "Christ Jesus."
I Corinthians 1:19 says, "For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent." "It is written" in "Isaiah 29:14 which says, "Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, [even] a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise [men] shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent [men] shall be hid." Wisdom of the world shall perish as many shall wander in darkness, babble and confusion.
I Corinthians 1:20 says, " Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?" Do you know the truth when it is being taught. Are you listing to a christian, who is one walking a Christ-like path, which means they are of the very elect. The "disputer" is 'satan" who is now caged in Heaven, however his spirit roams this earth. Common sense is not flourishing throughout the world since this attribute comes with wisdom of Father's Word. Going to church and saying you love Father God does not mean you have a heart and mind full of wisdom since most calling themselves christians are listening to what their pulpit gurus are saying and writing in their books and not studying the True Word of Father God, as it is written, Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse, through our Lord Jesus Christ, seeking understanding only pray will bring you through Father God Almighty.
I Corinthians 1:21 says, "For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe." For those who consider themselves wise in the ways of the world, condemning the very elect who teach according to the Word of Father God, Chapter by Chapter and Verse by Verse, dispelling for example their fly away, any moment, rapture doctrines, they do all within their power to belittle Father's true teachers. Our LORD, knowing the ignorance of pulpit gurus and those claiming christianity, will see to it that His very elect continue teaching His Truths so that those who come unto Him as little children, seeking understanding, will hear "thus saith our LORD", so that their eyes may be opened and their ears may hear with understanding the True Word of our Father, and this is pleasing in the sight of Almighty God.
I Corinthians 1:22says, "For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:" Those calling themselves christians [kenites] and those lost [so-called christians] in the ways of the world, seek "a sign" of worldly things and not those matters relating to Father God. Christ Jesus was asked to show a sign in Matthew - Chapter 12 {Verse 38} and our Lord surely provided the answer.
I Corinthians 1:23 says, "But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;" It is necessary, in order to know who the enemy of Father God is, to understood who crucified Christ Jesus on Passover Day. It was the kenites, who are the offspring of satan, through Cain, his son. It was the kenites who judged our Lord Jesus Christ to death in their disguise as chief priests [Pharisees and Sadducees] and were also within the crowd of people as they hollered out, "crucify him [Mark - Chapter 15]." Father God's Word came to be exactly as it is written in "Genesis - Chapter 3 {Verse 15}." Never forget on that cross however, Christ Jesus defeated death, who is satan, and when you have the seal of truth within your mind, which is Father God's Word, death, satan, has no choice but to pass over you {Passover} since he has no power over you. Christ Jesus has given all those who understand His Truths, power over all enemies, including satan [Luke 10:19].
I Corinthians 1:24 says, "But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God." "Called" are the "very elect" throughout the whole earth who have eyes to see and ears to hear what "thus saith our LORD", with understanding
I Corinthians 1:25 says, "Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men." The Biblically illiterate call Father's Word foolishness, even childish, because they have no understanding and believe myths such as the any moment, fly away, rapture lies.
I Corinthians 1:26 says, "For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]:" Father does not call on the pulpit play-actors, the rich and famous, rather, our LORD chooses those He can work with such as the disciples who were common laborers for the most part. Father calls on His children who have time for Him and not those furred with the luxuries of life since most of their time would be spent with showboating from their pulpits to keep money flowing into their pockets to continue living the life they have become accustomed to.
I Corinthians 1:27 says, "But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;" Father has no use for those calling themselves christians who are chained and bound to the foolish things of this world as they play church, lacking character. Our LORD depends on His very elect, though small in number, knowing they shall stand against the fiery darts of satan when he is cast to this earth as the first/false christ, along with his fallen angels as they join forces with the kenites who exist throughout the whole earth. The shield of protection for the very elect will be the gospel armor, which is made up of the knowledge of Father's Word.
I Corinthians 1:28 says, "And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, [yea], and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:" "Base things" means "small things." When satan is cast to this earth deceiving most of the world into believing he is our True Christ here to rapture them away, along with the fallen angels appearing as angels of light, when they are not, the very elect will stand against them as the Holy Spirit of Father God leads, guides and directs their path according to His good will. Although satan is supernatural and will perform all kinds of wondrous acts, the very elect will overpower satan, showing him for the vile creature he is, through our Lord Jesus Christ.
I Corinthians 1:29 says, "That no flesh should glory in his presence." The very elect know and understand that the acts accomplished as they "stand and teach" the True Gospel is not by their doing, not for their boasting since it is for and by the "Hand of Father God Almighty Himself." What makes the very elect feel that special spiritual relationship with Father God and Christ Jesus is the fact they are found worthy to do the will of our Father.
I Corinthians 1:30 says, "But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption " When Father God is within your heart and mind through our Living Word, Christ Jesus, it is magnificent, not foolish, in that there is redemption for all sins caused through and because of the flesh, when you repent from a pure heart. You can, through faithful study, walk a Christ-like path, studying to show yourself approved, seeking, asking and knocking for that increase of understanding only Father God can give. It is far more profitable to seek the wisdom of Father God {eternal} than to be a part of the foolishness of this world [temporary].
I Corinthians 1:31 says, "That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord." Jeremiah 9:23 & 24 says, "Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise [man] glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty [man] glory in his might, let not the rich [man] glory in his riches:" " But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I [am] the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these [things] I delight, saith the LORD." Father God created all of humankind for His pleasure [Revelation 4:11] and what greater pleasure to our Father than for His children to seek Him with love, respect, praise and glorification by the faithful study of His Word wherein you come to know what Father expects of you wherein you are redeemed from this miserable world to spend eternity with our "YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty and Yeshua, Christ Jesus."
