All Are Yours, Part 1

1 Corinthians 3:21-23 is a passage that is at once comforting, exciting, puzzling, and mysterious. The promises given to Christians in this passage are great and sweeping. Paul names three great luminaries of the early church, and states that they are ours. The world is ours, life is ours, death is ours, the present is ours, the future is ours. How should we interpret this inventory of possessions? In part 1, we cover the context of the passage, and what it means that the world is ours.
