1 Corinthians 11 | Pastor John Miller

Are your church gatherings for the better or for the worse? In this deep-dive study of 1 Corinthians 11, Pastor John Miller tackles the issue of disorder in the corporate worship of the Corinthian church. From the controversial topic of head coverings to the sacred institution of the Lord's Supper, Paul provides timeless principles for modesty, authority, and unity. Discover the "Four Looks of Communion" and learn why a "sensorious spirit" is the enemy of true worship. Pastor John explains the biblical "chain of order" within the Trinity and the home, emphasizing that submission is about function, not value. This message is a vital reminder that God is not a God of chaos, but of peace and order. In this study, you will discover: - Cultural Context: Why head coverings mattered in 1st-century Corinth and how to apply the principle of modesty today. - The Trinity and Order: How the relationship between the Father and the Son serves as a model for marriage and the church. - Creation vs. Culture: Why Paul uses the Book of Genesis to support his instructions on gender roles. - The "Unworthy Manner": A warning against the "chastening hand of God" and how to properly examine your heart before partaking in the Lord's Supper. - Expositional Listening: Why we should come to church with an eager readiness to obey the Word of God. 📺 WATCH THE FULL SERIES: Catch up on the entire verse-by-verse study through 1 Corinthians here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLP9sIJpVEMLL4MAr7gu8Z1UrWTrRRcU9x 🕒 Video Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction: The Disorderly Church 01:45 - Section 1: Modesty and Head Coverings (Verses 1-16) 03:36 - The Prostitute Badge: Why context matters 06:20 - Rules of Interpretation: Literal, Historical, and Grammatical 09:20 - Modesty: Reflecting the Inward Beauty of Christ 11:58 - The Chain of Authority: Christ, Man, and God 15:15 - Order in the Trinity: Co-equal but functional roles 19:40 - The Creation Argument: Drawing from Genesis 2 23:54 - Angels as Observers of Worship 26:30 - Nature’s Lesson: Hair as a Glory and a Covering 33:15 - Section 2: Instruction on the Lord’s Supper (Verses 17-34) 35:10 - Divisions and Factions: Showing off Spirituality 39:00 - The Potluck Problem: Gluttony vs. Hunger 41:00 - The First Look: Looking BACK at the Cross 43:45 - The Second Look: Looking AHEAD to the Second Coming 44:25 - The Third Look: Looking WITHIN (Self-Examination) 45:44 - Sickness and Sleep: The Chastening Hand of God 46:30 - The Fourth Look: Looking AROUND at the Body of Christ ⛪️ Connect with Revival Christian Fellowship We are a church located in Menifee, CA, dedicated to the expository, verse-by-verse teaching of God's Word.
