Christ in Corinthians

In the Epistles to the Corinthians, Christ is represented:

1. As the proper object of religious homage. All believers are represented as his worshippers. (1 Cor. i. 2.)
   
2. As the source of spiritual life. (1 Cor. i. 4-9, 30, 31.)
   
3. As the Lord of all Christians and the Lord of glory. (1 Cor. ii. 8.)
   
4. As creator of the universe (1 Cor. viii. 6), di hou ta panta.
   
5. As the Jehovah of the Old Testament, who led the Israelites through the wilderness. (1 Cor. x. 1-13.)
   
6. As the giver of spiritual gifts. (1 Cor. xii.)
   
7. As the Lord from heaven to whom the universe (ta panta) is subject. (1 Cor. xv. 25.)
   
8. A life-giving Spirit (pneuma zoopoioun), i.e., a Spirit having life in Himself. and a source of life to others. (1 Cor. xv. 45.)
   
9. The proper object of supreme love, whom not to love, justly subjects the soul to eternal death. (1 Cor. xvi. 22.)
   
10. The object of prayer (1 Cor. xvi. 23), from whom grace is to be sought.
    
11. He gives success in preaching the gospel, causing his ministers to triumph. (2 Cor. ii. 14.)
    
12. The vision of his glory transforms the soul into his likeness. (2 Cor. iii. 17, 18.)
    
13. In his face is the glory of God, to which those only are blind who are lost. (2 Cor. iv. 3-6.)
    
14. His presence, or being with Him, constitutes the believers heaven. (2 Cor. v. 1-8.)
    
15. Before his judgment-seat all men are to be arraigned. (2 Cor. v. 10.)
    
16. His love is the highest motive to action. (2 Cor. v. 14.)

I left work at about 4:30 and had leftovers. Kathee took the 6:10 bus and I picked her up at the Four Seasons Mall at 6:35.

Both K and I have colds. I think I am over the worst of it. Kathee is at the worst of it.

My Mother sent us a Valentine's card and it arrived today.

Glad to be home from work.

Kathee and I concluded Leviticus tonight - chapter 27.
