When I was growing up a common response to something you didn’t like was, “Grow up!” Obviously, the idea was that whatever the person had said or was doing was something a baby would do. Apparently, when the early Church was being founded, a common response to people whose behavior you didn’t like went something like, “Stop acting like a Corinthian!” The idea there being that Corinthians were the worst of the worst. When we get to the books of 1st and 2nd Corinthians then, it puts Paul’s teaching in a bit of a different light. The book of Romans was even written from Corinth because not only did Paul found the church of Corinth,
but he also stayed there for over a year (see Acts 18:1-8). Ancient Corinth was on the southwest end of the isthmus that joined the southern part of the Greek peninsula with the mainland to the north.

Jesus mentioned the Church for the first time in Matthew 16:18, which says, “And I also say to you that you are Pet...

Paul's Second Letter; 2 Corinthians 1-3
The ancient city of Corinth was not exactly an easy place to develop a Christian church with strong character. Their culture was notoriously dark and morally bankrupt. It was a city that carried a stigma. Yet, here, God grew a church. Paul lived there for some time greater than a year to teach, c...
