| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
| 0:07.0 | Today Paul continues his letter to the church he started at Corinth. |
| 0:15.6 | You may notice that every time he rebukes them for something or addresses a problem |
| 0:19.1 | they have, he presents the gospel in response to it. |
| 0:22.0 | One of the themes that shows up frequently |
| 0:24.0 | is that those who follow Christ should view every aspect of their lives |
| 0:27.0 | through the lens of the gospel |
| 0:29.0 | and live it out empowered by the work of the spirit. |
| 0:31.0 | This is not what the Corinthians are doing. They're not only living |

| 0:59.3 | is a crude misrepresentation. Grace is an agent of change. |
| 1:04.0 | It's God's favor on us to help us walk according to his ways. |
| 1:08.0 | It redirects us away from the works of the flesh and toward the fruit of the spirit. |
| 1:12.0 | On the other hand, anything that |
| 1:14.4 | lets us continue in sin unchecked and carefree isn't grace, it's passive wrath. |
| 1:19.5 | The Church at Corinth doesn't get this at all. |
| 1:23.0 | One problem with sexual sin is that it dishonors people by disassociating their body from their soul, |
| 1:28.7 | using them for our own pleasure. |
