As Paul helped the Corinthians work through conflicts in their church, he reminded them that understanding the Gospel was of primary importance. Similarly, Alistair Begg urges us to understand the truth of Scripture so that we can quickly discern and confront false teaching. The Bible must be our guidebook in determining what Christianity is, how we become Christians, and what it means to follow Jesus.
1Now I would remind you, brothers,1 of the gospel gI preached to you, which you received, hin which you stand, 2and by which iyou are being saved, if you jhold fast to the word I preached to you—kunless you believed in vain.
3For lI delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died mfor our sins nin accordance with the Scriptures, 4that he was buried, that he was raised oon the third day pin accordance with the Scriptures, 5and that qhe appeared to Cephas, then rto the twelve. 6Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. 7Then he appeared to sJames, then tto all the apostles. 8Last of all, as to one untimely born, uhe appeared also to me. 9For vI am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because wI persecuted the church of God. 10But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, xI worked harder than any of them, ythough it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me. 11Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.
