Ten Tweets on “Signs of Maturing Faith” (1 Corinthians 3:1-23)

Here's the weekend sermon in 10 tweets (Letter to the Corinthians series):

1/ 7 signs of maturing faith: first, You have a biblical definition of spirituality. It’s a person. Having the Spirit.

2/ 2nd sign: You have a growing recognition that “It’s not about me.” Life is about God’s priorities—in line with the Spirit.

3/ Spiritual maturity is a journey. We stray from the path but no one is a Christian who is never on the path. 

4/ 3rd sign: You see ministry and leadership as serving and contributing. 

5/ Leaders are servants, not celebrities.

6/ 4th: You experience the rhythms of work and rest. Ministry is hard (like farming) but it’s not all on you. God causes the growth.

7/ 5th: You apply Scripture not only to yourself but to the “you alls.” You all are a field…building…temple

8/ 6th: You increasingly think and act in terms of eternal implications.

9/ 7th: You’re learning to live in the tensions. Leader/servant; I am temple/we are temple; Accountability/Assurance; Humble/Confident…

10/ The cross in right in the middle of the tensions. We are saints that still sin. Forgiven but we will be judged with no condemnation.
