Are You “Gold” or “Wood”? I Cor. 3:12
Gold or Wood ? • Paul master architect- lays foundation of Christ (I Cor. 3:10-11) • Perspective of work of the teacher – man building on foundation. (I Cor. 3:10) • One foundation – two different results- burned or abide (I Cor. 3:14-15)
Gold or Wood ? • The character of material is revealed by fire – the day of trial (I Cor. 3:13) • Proves what “sort it is” (I Pet. 1:6-7, Acts 18:8-17) • If Hell fire then how is teacher saved, but work is lost (burned) (cf. Matt. 15:14, Jms. 3:1)
Gold or Wood ? • How we are tied to the foundation: through teaching affecting our lives • Holiness – totally separated unto God • Giving God the glory as Christian – ultimate sacrifice(I Pet. 4:12-16, Rev. 2:13, Matt. 13:20-21) • In all manner of living – (2 Pet. 3:11, Matt. 13:22) • Holiness of Excellence(2 Tim. 2:19-21)
