## Resource

Dear friends, “Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up”. What a challenge Paul gives to us in the first verse of his answer to the Corinthians’ question about food offered to idols. As we continue our discussion of this part of 1 Corinthians, I hope you will share with us the wonder of thinking lovingly about knowledge. For knowledge, especially the knowledge of God and his ways, is very important. But knowledge, like many good things, can be used for evil as well as for good. Without love, our knowledge will be used for our benefit instead of the benefit of others. And so we will fall under the condemnation of being puffed up instead of building others up. It is just so fascinating how Paul’s discussions of particular problems in 1st century Corinth open up for us such permanently important topics. Yours, Phillip Freely available, supported by generosity. If you enjoy Two Ways News, why not lend us a hand?
