 Yeah, so just felt like sharing that, you know, about our hearing that God is a God who speaks and he wants us to hear clearly so that we might our actions will also be clear, right? When we hear clearly, when we know clearly, then our decisions, our walk will be, you know, sure and it won't be hesitant, right? And we will be people of faith because faith comes by hearing the word of God, right? So whatever the word he quickens to our heart, faith comes by that. And we have the privilege of hearing the now word of God, the rena of God. So that produces faith in us. And also the rena word of God is also the weapon, the sword of the spirit. So it's very important that we hear clearly and also whenever we feel that, okay, Lord, I'm not able to hear clearly, you know, in the spirit seems to be some things that are blocking some things that are creating confusion. It's best to just seek Him and say, Lord, what is it? You know, what is it that's a thing? Is it something that's that I'm doing? Is it some habit? Is it some my attitude? And just seek Him and say, God, you know, I just want it removed out of my life. I want that. I don't want anything to come between, you know, me and hearing you clearly, right? So that's something that we can pursue to pursue the voice of God to pursue hearing Him. You know, that's because that's our privilege, right? Okay. Okay, let's turn, let's turn to Corinthians and what we've been studying so far. Okay. So we looked, we were studying last class, we looked at chapter seven, right? And chapter seven, we didn't finish chapter seven. I think we went up to verse 20, verse 23, I think, right? Or verse 24. Okay. So verse 24. So interesting, Paul writing about, writing to the Corinthian church very specifically about marriage, about, you know, sexual relationship within marriage. And then very clearly, you know, he's laying down certain instructions. If a person is married already, and then they come to the Lord, right? So the situation is like people, they don't know the Lord. Now they get married, they become believers. And one of them, like one of them becomes a believer, the other person is still not a believer. And they, and then, you know, challenges that arise out of that. So he addresses that. What if one person wants to leave, you know, a person saying, you know, you're a believer, I don't, you know, I don't want to live with you anymore. And, you know, so, so he's saying, you know, just continue to be reconciled, right? Continue to live together. But then if the, if that person wants to leave and go, then, like, you don't have a choice, right? So let that person go. But you stay, you know, you do your best to stay in that, in the relationship and so on. So, and, and then he talks about, I think we looked at verses 17 to 24, right? Saying, you know, if you are called, like when you are called, you know, the remain in that, in that, what is the word he uses? Remain in that calling is what he, what he says. But the context is marriage and or, you know, social status and all that, right? He's saying verse 20, right? Chapter seven and verse 20, let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called. And of course, he's talking about being married, unmarried and so on. So the thing is, if you are married, then, you know, don't say, you know, I wish I, you know, I was not married, then I would serve the Lord better. Or if you're not married, just, you know, don't keep complaining saying, you know, I wish I was married, then I could serve the Lord better or I could be a better Christian, you know, in that way. So don't worry about that, right? Serve the Lord in whatever way you are. And also about, you know, he's talking about being a slave and freed man and so on, right? So that's how he starts, finishes that thought in verse 24. Let each one remain with God in that state in which he was called. So that's the context of that, right? Of that verse and these verses, say, like verse 24 and also verse 20. Now let's look at verse 25 onwards. Okay, let me just read a... As one whom the Lord in His mercy has made trustworthy, I suppose, therefore, that this is good because of the present distress, that it is good for a man to remain as he is. Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be lost. Are you lost from a wife? Do not seek a wife. But even if you do marry, you have not sinned. And if a virgin marries, she is not sinned. Nevertheless, such will have trouble in the flesh, but I would spare you. But this, I say, brethren, the time is short so that from now on, even those who have wives should be as though they had none and those who weep as though they did not weep, those who rejoice as though they did not rejoice, those who buy as though they did not possess and those who use this world as not misusing it for the form of this world is passing away. But I want you to be without care. He who is married cares for the things, unmarried cares for the things of the Lord and how he may please the Lord, but he who is married cares about the things of the world, how he may please his wife and so on. Like verse 34, there is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit, but she who is married cares about the things of the world, how she may please her husband. But this I say for your own profit, not that I may put a leash on you, but for what is proper that you may serve the Lord without distraction. Verse 35. So this is what he says. Now he starts by saying now concerning virgin. So people who are not married, the word used there, Parthenos, it means people who are yet to get married, people who are of marriageable age, people who are of marriageable age, people who have not had a physical relationship in marriage. So it could be a woman, it could be of either gender. So he's speaking to unmarried people right now and he's giving his recommendation. Notice how what he says, he says, I have no commandment, but I give judgment. So looking at what is good, what is best, what is not good, I'm giving a judgment. So judgment is when you decide, when you pronounce a decision based on what you have heard. As a judge, you'd hear both sides of the story, you'll hear the good, you'll hear the bad and then you give a decision. So that is what judgment is. So he's saying as one who is whom the Lord has made in His mercy, He had made me trustworthy. So as one, as such a person, I give judgment. So he's saying it's not a commandment, but I'm giving judgment. So this also we can, it is for us to consider with a lot of weightage. Because it comes from a man who was used by the Lord. It comes from a person who was used by the Lord in powerful ways and was trusted by the Lord. And that's what he says, made trustworthy in His mercy. So I'm giving this judgment. But the wonderful thing is that he makes a difference between a commandment of the Lord and a practical wisdom which comes from him. From all those years of ministry and having been trusted by the Lord. So this is what he says. I suppose this is good because of the present distress. So he's talking about the present condition, probably the persecution of the church and troubles and everything that the believers, the Christians were facing at those times, the church was facing. So he's saying it is good if you're already married, then don't seek to be separated. But if you're not married, then you can choose to remain as you are, is what he's saying. And it's not a sin. And even if a person who's of marriageable age marries, then she has not sinned. The lady has not sinned. So this is what he says, verse 26. Nevertheless, he says, such will have trouble in the flesh, but I would spare you. What is this trouble in the flesh? So does that mean that something will happen to me physically just because I get married? What is he talking about? If you remember, he talks about this thing about destruction of the flesh. And where did he talk about it? He talked about it in chapter 5. He's talked about that person who was sexually immoral and he was part of the phallus way, part of the church. And then he says, I pronounce judgment and I hand them over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh. You remember that. And what was that act of handing over? It was like asking him not to be part of the phallus. Because he was continuing in sin. He was not listening, obviously, to whatever correction. He was continuing to have that lifestyle. And so he passes, pronounces that kind of a judgment. Now, the same usage here, he's saying you will have trouble in the flesh. So flesh, that word of course, it refers to a body, physical body, physical flesh. It's made up of flesh and bones or flesh. The Greek word sarks refers to that. It also refers to a bodily appetite. And it generally refers to human beings also. Because the Lord says, I will pour out my spirit on all flesh. So what does it mean that on all people? So it refers to people also. And also it could refer to the carnal desires, the fleshly appetites, the sinful appetites of the body. So it has all these meanings. So saying you will have trouble in the flesh. So he's saying you will have responsibilities. You will face pressures, the pressures of marriage, the pressures of daily life and so on. So that is what he's referring to. It's not like you will get some sickness or you will have some trouble in your body. So understanding what the context is or how he uses the word flesh. So we see that. And then he goes on to say that those who are married should be, even as if they are not married and even those who are unmarried should be as though they are remaining that way. And then also about using the world. Those who are using the world, not misusing it for the form of this world is passing away. So what he's saying is that time is short. If you're married and you have your day-to-day responsibilities, time is short. And we need to serve the Lord. Please the Lord serve him and whatever the call is, you need to pursue the call. So time is short. So don't get too engrossed or don't get caught up in the things of the world. So if you are in the world, you use the world. Of course, we use the world meaning there are things that we engage with the world with regard to money, with regard to domestic life and responsibilities. He's saying, yeah, we need to. But don't get too engrossed with the world. And it says because the form of the world, the external things, the form of the world is passing away. So let your focus, let your primary thing be about pleasing the Lord and serving him. And verse 35 says, this I say for your own profit. This I say for your edification rather. I'm saying this so that you will be benefited for your own benefit and not that I want to restrict you and put a leash on you in any way. The word that he uses there for your own benefit or for your own profit so that it will be helpful to you is what he says. And I don't want to put it. It's not to restrict you in any way. It's not to put a leash on you. And so that is the thing so that you might serve the Lord without any distraction. So this is the reason he is sharing this. So it's good advice. He's not saying that in any way he's not downplaying marriage. We know that because when we look at a lot of other scriptures, Ephesians 5, 1 Timothy 4, we see that 1 Timothy 4 is actually talking about a group of people who are giving man-made wisdom. And also he's saying forbidding a lot of things. Forbidding to marry should not marry. If you don't marry then it's greater spirituality. He's talking about those kind of people in 1 Timothy 4 and he's saying these are teachings of demons. These are not scriptural. So you know that he's not downplaying marriage. He's not in any way saying don't get married. But he's actually talking about the reality of marriage, the reality of responsibilities of marriage. And he's saying let your focus be on the Lord. And yes, there are some real life challenges that are there. And responsibilities that are there. And he's bringing that out. And then he's saying let your primary responsibility be towards the Lord. So he's just very clear about that. We need to understand that. So then from verse 36 till the end of the chapter, let's read that. This is a slightly, especially this verse 36. The context in which he says it obviously makes it slightly complex to interpret it. Let's read it. 36. But if any man thinks he is behaving improperly towards his virgin, if she is past the flower of youth and thus it must be, let him do what he wishes. He does not send let them marry. Nevertheless, he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity but has power over his own will and has so determined in his heart that he will keep his virgin thus well. So then he who gives her in marriage does well. But he who does not give her in marriage does better. So verse 36 to 38, this is what he says. So what is he saying? So like certain translations of the Bible translated differently. There could be two examples or two scenarios here. One is that this person here, whom he is referring to, is a father. So is a father who has a daughter who is a virgin. And we know as in India and also during those times, biblical times, the parents and typically the father would take the responsibility of finding a person for the daughter to be married to. So that is what he is referring to. So one scenario is that maybe it's talking with the father. So he's saying let him do what he wishes, let them marry. Let him give the daughter in marriage. The other thing scenario is that maybe it's referring to a young person who is engaged to be married, who's considering marrying a woman whom he's engaged to. And he's considering that. So it could refer to that. Why? Because it says that he who stands, let's say, verse 37, he who stands steadfast in his house, having no necessity, but has power over his own will, but has so determined in his heart, does well, he will keep his virgin and so on. So it could be two scenarios. So certain translations translate it that way. And certain translations translate the second scenario. But the NIV translation gives both, like in the Bible, in the main scripture portion. It translates the first, sorry, the second scenario, I think, right? About, let me just check that. Yeah, he's talking about in the scripture portion. It's talking about the second scenario of a person who is engaged to be married. Whereas it also explains in the footnote about a father who has a virgin whom he wants to give in marriage, right? Or he's, you know, maybe making a decision not to get her married. Okay, two scenarios. So, but whatever it is, right? In either case, the fact is that verse 38, he says, so he who gives her in marriage does better. He who gives her in marriage does well, but he who does not give her in marriage also does better. So what he's saying in conclusion is that either way does not matter. Okay, so either, you know, decision is fine, right? If that is what you want, that's fine, right? If you choose to remain single, that's fine. If you choose to get married, that's fine. So he's saying either way, it's okay, right? So that is how he concludes that particular instruction, right? Verse 38. Then verse 39, a wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives. But if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be married to whom she wishes. And only in the Lord, meaning that the other person also needs to be somebody, you know, a believer, right? So this is what he says that, you know, this person is free. You can do if the husband dies or if the wife dies, you know, either way, right? The person is free to remarry, to marry again. And he says she's at liberty to be married to whomever she wishes, only in the Lord. Verse 40. But she's happier if she remains as she is according to my judgment. And I think I also have the spirit of the Lord. So he's saying that, you know, because of what he shared earlier, right? Yes, there are, you know, there are responsibilities. They have priorities. And a person who's married, you know, has certain priorities, which a person who's unmarried will not have. Okay. So when it comes to serving the Lord, well, you need to take care of this as well as that, right? You need to take care of domestic responsibilities and priorities, priorities to the spouse, to the family, right? You need to take care of that as well as, you know, what the Lord is interested you in terms of ministry and so on. So we need to take care of this and that. And he's saying that she's happier if she remains as she is, as she is according to my judgment. So he says, I also think I have the spirit of God. So with that, he ends the chapter seven. Okay. Now, any questions, any questions based on what we saw, you know, this is a slightly heavier topic, right, with regard to marriage, with regard to, you know, domestic responsibilities, with regard to physical relationships in marriage and so on. So any questions that you might have or any clarifications that you might have can feel free to ask or anything that you want to add to whatever we shared just now. Any questions? Anyone? No questions? So you have clarity, you know, about chapter seven, verse 20. Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called and also verse 24, brethren, let each one remain with God in that state in which he was called. Okay. So you understand in what context he's calling. I mean, he's mentioning about the calling and the state in which one person is called to remain in that state, to remain in that calling, right. It is in the context of marriage. It is in the context of even work or, you know, social standing, right. He's talking about slave and freed men and so on, right. So you understand that, okay. And also this verse, right, verse 36, verse 37, okay. So we need to understand that, okay. In the Greek, okay, which the King James and the new King James, you know, it just translates literally and then leaves it at that. And now it could be, it could be referring to either the father or a young man who's engaged. So, but in either case, you know, we know that this would be the application, right. If they do not married, if they are married, it's fine. If they choose to remain unmarried, that's fine, right. If the father gives in marriage, that's fine. If the father decides, okay, you know, not to, that's also fine. But of course, it's not something that is forcing, you know, when it comes to father-parent-child relationship. It's not something that the father is forcing on the child, right. We know it involves the free will of the daughter as well, right. So we know that, okay. So the important thing is also to understand verse 35, you know, that the law Paul says that it is for your benefit. I say these things, it's the benefit that I give this instruction, this wisdom. And it's not to put a leash on each, not to restrain you in any way. A leash typically is, you know, like suppose you take a dog out for a walk, you know, you put a leash, right, so that it prevents the dog from just running, right. It holds the dog close to the master who's taking the dog for a walk. And the dog does not have much freedom. It cannot run, it cannot, you know, go wherever it is. That's a leash, right. So you say, I'm not putting a leash on you. I'm not restricting your decision, restricting your choice, restricting your freedom in any way. Giving you, you know, the reality of the situation, right. So we need to understand that also, okay, fine. So let's, if there are no questions, no other thoughts, let's move on to chapter eight, okay. Chapter eight is about idols, about eating food offered to idols, okay. So that is the topic of chapter eight, which he also addresses in chapter 10, okay. So chapter eight is one part of it. Chapter 10 is the other part of, he continues with the topic of food offered to idols and worship of idols and so on. So this is one part of it. So when we get both the chapter eight and when we study chapter 10, then we get the full picture of this whole topic of food offered to idols and what to do, what not to do, et cetera. Okay, so we are looking at one part of it. So let's read, right. Chapter eight, now concerning food offered to idols. So he starts by saying, okay, now I've talked about all this. Now concerning the things of which you wrote to me, you know, that's how he starts verse, chapter seven, verse one. Then chapter 10, sorry, chapter seven, verse 10, he says, now to the married, I command. And then verse 25 of chapter seven, he says, now concerning virgins, and he gives the instructions. And so in chapter eight, he says, now concerning things offered to idols. Okay, so that is what he's going to be talking about. So chapter eight, verse one, now concerning things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge, knowledge puffs up, but love edifies. And if anyone thinks he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know. But if anyone loves God, this one is known by him. Therefore, concerning things, concerning the eating of things offered to idols. We know that an idol is nothing in the world, and there is no other God but one. Okay, so he prefaces that before he goes into this. Things offered to idol, he's actually referring to the things that are offered of food that is eating of the things that are offered to idols. Okay, so which is food, right? Food offered and maybe consecrated or in an act of worship of the idols that some food item, something that someone can eat, right? So he's talking about that, referring to that, obviously. But then he starts with saying concerning things offered to idols. So he says, we know that we all have knowledge regarding this, regarding this subject. Okay, which means that he has probably talked about it and maybe when he was there. Now because the Corinthian culture is a idol worshipping culture, right? They worshipped idols, they had these temples and obviously they were idol worshippers. Okay, so when we say idols, first of all, we know that an idol could be something that is a physical image, right? A physical, maybe like a statue or something. You can also refer to something which is in our heart, right? In the sense, something that we substitute for God. Something else that we substitute for God and maybe you consider something of more value than God in your heart. That can also be an idol, right? Maybe how you spend your time, you don't consider spending time with God as something very important. But spending time doing something else, maybe entertainment or sport, as more value than spending time with the Lord, maybe reading the Word and so on. And you're giving that more time, that becomes an idol, right? That's a substitute for God in our lives, right? So that's something that is in the heart, right? Internal. But Paul here is obviously referring to physical idol worship of images that were things, you know, statues, image, whatever, that were offered or that were worshipped as Gods, okay? So he's very clearly referring to that. And we know that the Corinthians had these temples and when we studied the thing, they were having the idol worship, okay? So what he's referring to is that saying, okay, with regard to this, you might have knowledge or you might have understanding what you should do, what you should not do, okay? Now, either the thing could be maybe you're in the temple or in the vicinity of the temple and you are offered something that has been offered to the idol, okay? Someone offers it to you to eat and that is the typical thing scenario, right? You're in the vicinity or you're in the temple for whatever reason and this happens. Or it could be something that is sold in the market and you know that, okay, it has been consecrated by an act of worship to the idol. It has been consecrated for blessings. It has been offered to the idol and after that it is sold in the market as food. So that was also done during those days in Corinth, right? So these two possibilities were there. But then they were specially marked as these were things that were offered to idols and then specially marked as that and sold in the market. So Paul is addressing that and he's saying that, okay, now maybe you knew the truth. Okay, now he's saying, you know, you have knowledge so you know the truth, okay? But what is the thing? He's saying that knowledge puffs up but love edifies, okay? So he's pointing to people who had the knowledge but who are looking down on others, meaning that putting down people and considering others as inferior who did not have this knowledge, okay? Or maybe who did not obey the truth about this particular thing. So he's saying that knowledge puffs up but love edifies. If anyone thinks he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as you ought to know. So he's saying that, hey, yes, you might have this truth and you might think that you know this thing. But then there are many other things that you don't know yet, right? And if you think, you know, I know it, I know everything, that means that you don't know yet. You know, there are so many things. So don't be proud because of knowledge. Don't become proud because of knowledge and especially regarding this matter, this matter of things offered to idols. Yes, you know the truth. Now, don't become proud and, you know, don't look down on others. Don't consider others as inferior, okay? And he says, you know, if anyone loves God, this one is known by God. That's the better thing to love God and to be known by God. That's the right perspective, right? Whether you know the truth, you know the truth. But the fact that you love God and you are known by him, that's important, okay? So he says, love edifies. Love builds us up in the inner person. There is spiritual progress. You're built up on the inner man, you know, because of love, okay? And knowledge, when you have knowledge or not, you need to have love, okay? So, which means that when you love God, when you love God's people, then, you know, then this attitude will not be there, right? This knowledge, even though you know the truth, it will not puff you up because love would have edified you, built you up and kept you humble, okay? So, verse 4, okay? Again, he comes back. Therefore, concerning the eating of things offered to idols. We know that an idol is nothing in the world and that there is no other God but one, okay? So, even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, as there are many gods and many lords, yet for us, there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things and we live for him. And one Lord Jesus Christ through whom are all things and through whom we live, okay? So, what is he saying here? He's saying, you know, I know that, again, coming back to this thing of concerning things, eating of things offered to idols. We know that an idol is nothing in the world, okay? So, the thing is that, okay, here's an image. Here is a, you know, here is an image, here is a carving or whatever. We know that there is, it's nothing. Why? Because there is only one God. There is only one true God and there is one Lord Jesus for whom are all things. You know, we know this is the truth. So, this is actually nothing. This idol is nothing. Okay, it's really, you don't have to fear it. You don't have to be afraid of it or, you know, you don't have to reverence it, etc. So, you think idol is nothing. Okay, so this is one part of it, right? So, in chapter 10, he will talk about the other part of it. So, he says, you know, idol is nothing. However, there is not in everyone that knowledge. For some, with consciousness of the idol until now, eat it as a thing, offer to an idol, and their conscience being weak is defiled. So, what is he saying? He's saying that, you know, there are some who don't have that kind of a knowledge, that kind of a confidence that when they look at the idol, you know, they don't look at it as, you know, that idol is nothing. You know, there's nothing to be feared, fear it. There's nothing to, you know, reverence it, because it's nothing. We know that, you know, ultimate reality and the all-powerful God, all-knowing God is, the God we worship. So, but not everyone has that understanding. Not everyone has that knowledge. So, when they look at an idol, these people who do not have the understanding, who do not have that knowledge, he's talking about believers, still consider an idol as something, okay? And if there is a situation where they are eating the food that is offered to idol, then they consider it as something that is offered to the idol, you know, which means that idol is something, and that they are actually eating something that is offered to. Therefore, they are, what is happening? Their conscience is, because they are, with that, with this kind of consciousness or understanding, since they are eating, their conscience is weak and it's defile. Okay, so they are feeling guilty, they are feeling condemned. It's their consciousness. Conscience is defile. Okay, verse 8, but food does not commend us to God, nor, you know, if we, neither if we eat, are we the better, nor if we do not eat, are we the worse. So, you see, food, it does not draw us to God, it does not take us away from God. Okay, so, this food is nothing. You know, it's not going to commend us to God or take us closer to God. This idol is nothing. Okay, so, he's making it very, very clear. Now, these things that are offered to the idols, you know, just by eating it, it's just food. Now, it's not going to, you know, commend us to God or take us away from God, because the reason is that idol is nothing. Right, so that's the understanding, right? This is nothing, because there's only one true God. This idol is nothing. So, if anyone eats this thing, it's not going to affect in any way, right? So, he makes it very clear, in verse 8. For if we do eat, nor if we do eat, do not eat, are we the worse. Verse 9 gives the reason, but do where? Okay, but do where? What is he saying? Careful of what? Okay, now, you are a person who knows the truth, who is very confident that, yes, you have the understanding that there's only one true God and this idol is nothing, and somehow you eat things offered to idol and this person who does not have this kind of an understanding sees you eating this, right? So, he's talking about that in verse 9, but beware, lest somehow this liberty of yours, this freedom of yours, okay, become a stumbling block to those who are weak. Now, these are weak, a weaker brother or a sister, right? A Christian who is not strong, a believer who is not mature, maybe a person who has just come to know the Lord and who still does not have clarity about these things, right? Someone who is weak. So, don't become a stumbling block, don't become a barrier, or don't become a reason for someone to fall. A stumbling block refers to that, right? A stone or something, which causes a person to stumble, trip on it and fall, okay? So, figuratively, it means that you're causing someone who's walking spiritually, you're causing that person to fall or not causing progress in that person's spiritual life, okay? So, you're saying this freedom of yours, you have the freedom, you have the confidence, you know nothing will happen because food also, it's just food and even though it's offered to idol, it's just nothing and you have the freedom, you know nothing will happen. But this freedom of yours, be careful that this freedom causes someone else who is not as mature as you are, who is not as strong as you are, who is weaker than you, it causes them to stumble because for them, they feel that idol is something. They feel that food offers idol is actually an act of worship. They are made to stumble. Their faith is, you know, and their progress in spiritual life is halted or stopped because of your freedom or the decision or the choices that you make because of your freedom, okay? So, that's what he says. If anyone sees you who have knowledge worse than, or if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol's temple, okay?
