S6E179: New Creation 11: When the Church Attempts to Impress

  • サマリー

  • Michael and Jason dive into 2 Corinthians looking starting with the idea that new creation is not just about individual transformation, but also about the transformation of the church body as a whole. They explore the idea that true thriving is not about worldly success or impressive appearances, but about embracing weakness and dependence on God. They emphasize the importance of viewing success and thriving through the lens of faith, rather than the standards of the world. The conversation concludes with a reflection on the significance of fixing our eyes on the unseen and eternal.

    Takeaways
    - The concept of new creation in 2 Corinthians is not just about individual transformation, but also about the transformation of the church body as a whole.
    - Living in the new creation can be challenging and requires a shift in perspective from worldly values to the values of the kingdom of God.
    - Paul's emphasis on weakness and reliance on God challenges the worldly notion of presenting oneself with grandiosity and prestige.
    - The world often does not understand the gospel, and preaching Christ can be seen as foolish or unimpressive.
    - There are two realities at play: the old creation of the world and the new creation of the kingdom of God. True thriving is not about worldly success or impressive appearances, but about embracing weakness and dependence on God.
    - Success and thriving should be viewed through the lens of faith, rather than the standards of the world.
    - There is a contrast between outward appearances and inward renewal in the new creation.
    - Fixing our eyes on the unseen and eternal is key to understanding true thriving.
    - The paradoxical nature of the new creation challenges our conventional understanding of success and thriving.
