Description
The Corinthian church has made much progress since Paul’s first letter. God has indeed worked in this real church. Now, in Gordon Keddie’s next devotional commentary, The Real Christian, we see Paul encourage those believers in a more personal way about matters like suffering, comfort, forgiveness, false teaching, disputes, giving, and hope. Keddie presses us to take this counsel to heart today and, in all these things, to fix our eyes on the real Jesus.
Endorsements
"The life of the apostle Paul confounded the false teachers in Corinth. How, they wondered, could true apostleship involve such great suffering? Yet in his second epistle to the Corinthians, Paul provides a model for Spirit-worked ministry and indeed the entire Christian life that involves hope, confidence, and joy amid suffering. In this epistle, Paul not only addresses suffering, but he also teaches on relevant topics such as joy, preaching, giving, weakness, single-mindedness, the resurrection, and the cultivation of an eternal perspective. Characteristic of Keddie —— who so skillfully combined exegetical acuity, biblical wisdom, and pastoral care in his preaching and writing —— every chapter of this clear, Christ-centered, and experiential work is as insightful as a commentary, as practical as a devotional, and as edifying as a sermon.
