May 21, 2006: 1 Corinthians 7:17-40. "Life in Light of Christ's Coming"

Mike Phay preaching.

1 Corinthians 7:17-40.  Futurists say that they can pinpoint future trends in our society and economy based upon a clear view of the present.  Christians can pinpoint the way to live in the present based upon a clear view of the future.

Paul's teaching on singleness and marriage seeks to give us a new perspective on how to live life: not flaunting or seeking to change our circumstances to better our standing with God or others.  Rather, living for Christ in the midst of our circumtances for the sake of God and others.
