In 1 Corinthians 4:1-14 (KJV), ministers of Christ are under-rowers and stewards of the mysteries of God, and a steward must be found faithful.
1 Corinthians Part 5 (Corinthians for Dummies) with Matt Hepner and the Raven: let no man deceive himself, and fools for Christ's sake.
Matt and the Raven finish 1 Corinthians 3 with let no man deceive himself, the wisdom of this world, and why everyone wants to be the victim. In chapter 4 they dig into the Greek behind minister (an under-rower) and steward, why the King James is worth the work when men died to translate the Bible, and judging nothing before the time, because the Lord will make manifest the counsels of the hearts. They close on what you have that you didn't receive and we are fools for Christ's sake. Next: Part 6 picks up in 1 Corinthians 4:15.
