Comments Off on 5 Ways Paul Compared the Old and New Testament

Paul had a problem with Judaizers moving in on his work. They even wanted to know if he had a letter of commendation from anybody important since the Jews did. Paul responds with some contrasts of the old and the new. (1 Corinthians 3)

  1. Theirs is written on stone, not the heart (3)
  2. Theirs not given by the Spirit (3)

  4. Thiers veiled not unveiled (15-16)
  5. Theirs is given unto condemnation, not righteousness (9-10)
