The Careful Caring Counselor by Greg Holmes, D.MIN – Director of Missions serving 17 churches
PAUL WRITES A LETTER from his prison cell in Ephesus to the Corinthian church in 56 or 57 A.D. Paul is very mature in his theology by this time. It wasn’t a great leap intellectually or rationally that Paul had to make when he became a Christ-follower, but it was a revolutionary shift in his understanding of the O.T., and a true paradigm shift in his beliefs and therefore his own identity. His Damascus Road conversion (cf. Acts 9:3-17) was probably around 36 A.D., so this letter is the product of two decades of evolving and solidified belief and thought.
