2 Corinthians 2
"15-16 In fact, God thinks of us as a perfume that brings Christ to everyone. For people who are being saved, this perfume has a sweet smell and leads them to a better life. But for people who are lost, it has a bad smell and leads them to a horrible death. "

1 Corinthians 14:26-15:11
36 God's message did not start with you people, and you are not the only ones it has reached.
Do not be arrogant and think you are the only church out there...
Year of the Bible - Tuesday, July 20:
1 Corinthians 14:1-25
"22 Languages that others don't know may mean something to unbelievers, but not to the Lord's followers. Prophecy, on the other hand, is for followers, not for unbelievers. 23 Suppose everyone in your worship service started speaking unknown languages, and some outsiders or some unbelievers come in. Won't they think you are crazy? 24 But suppose all of you are prophesying when those unbelievers and outsiders come in. They will realize that they are sinners, and they will want to change their ways because of what you are saying. 25 They will tell what is hidden in their hearts. Then they will kneel down and say to God, 'We are certain that you are with these people.' "
This always seemed to be a confusing verse. He says Prophecy is for followers ... then later he talkes about unbeliever's hearing prophecy

1 Corinthians 5 -
9 In my other letter I told you not to have anything to do with immoral people. 10 But I wasn't talking about the people of this world. You would have to leave this world to get away from everyone who is immoral or greedy or who cheats or worships idols. 11 I was talking about your own people who are immoral or greedy or worship idols or curse others or get drunk or cheat. Don't even eat with them! 12 Why should I judge outsiders? Aren't we supposed to judge only church members? 13 God judges everyone else. The Scriptures say, 'Chase away any of your own people who are evil.'
Year of the Bible - Thursday, July 8:
1 Corinthians 4:5 So don't judge anyone until the Lord returns. He will show what is hidden in the dark and what is in everyone's heart. Then God will be the one who praises each of us.
Help me God just to love people and not be judgemental...

1 Corinthians 3:3
because you are not yet spiritual. You are jealous and argue with each other. This proves that you are not spiritual and that you are acting like the people of this world.
Help me God to be spiritual...

12 But God has given us his Spirit. That’s why we don’t think the same way that the people of this world think. That’s also why we can recognize the blessings that God has given us.
Help me God to recognize the blesssings you have given me.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-28
I don’t need to write you about the time or date when all this will happen. 2 You surely know that the Lord’s return will be as a thief coming at night. 3 People will think they are safe and secure. But destruction will suddenly strike them like the pains of a woman about to give birth. And they won’t escape.
4 My dear friends, you don’t live in darkness, and so that day won’t surprise you like a thief.
"So that day won't surprise you like a thief." Lord reveal yourself, work in my life, let me not live in darkness
