This is the 16th sermon in our current series Christian Living In The Current of Culture, preaching through 1 Corinthians. This sermon titled “The Right Reasons” is from 1 Corinthians 9:1-27 and was preached by Pastor Thomas Terry.

In our text this morning we see Paul remind the Corinthians that he was indeed an Apostle which afforded him certain rights to have financial support and a wife should he choose to marry. Paul then shares how he relinquished his rights to financial support so as to not equate gospel preaching with the paid philosophers of the day, knowing his reward would come from God. Paul closes this section by using the illustration of athletic competitions to call us to be willing to condition ourselves to serve people for the gospel and obtain a reward that is imperishable. This text demands a response from us to keep ourselves under control to not risk being disqualified or causing others to set a course that might cause them to become disqualified.
