About this episode

Dr. James Boice discusses the divisions within the church as highlighted in 1 Corinthians 3, focusing on carnal Christianity and the concept of believers being 'more saved' than others.

1 Corinthians 3:1-23 While the unity of believers is stressed throughout the New Testament, division has often stymied the growth of the church and the fellowship of Christians, and the beginning verses of I Corinthians chapter three tell us of two areas that fueled those divisions. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he looks at carnal Christianity and whether some believers are “more saved” than others.
