Today, in our ongoing study of the writings of the apostle Paul, we will begin an in-depth study of the Second Book of Corinthians. We’ll be going through chapter 1 except for the final two verses, which are actually the true beginning of chapter two. It is widely assumed that this was the apostle Paul’s final letter to the early church at Corinth, but that’s only because no others have been found intact despite much archaeological exploration throughout the Middle East and Southern Europe. It would truly be awesome if an additional letter were to be found in these last days before Christ’s return, but for now let’s begin our study as I quote from the apostle Paul.

Part One of This Week’s Bible Verses for Study and Memorization

“Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, to the Church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Praise be to the God and Father
