In today's passage of scripture, 1 Corinthians Chapter 12, the apostle Paul explains the "spiritual gifts" given to each member of the church.
He says that the Triune God gives “the spiritual gifts” to each person according to each personality; to one there is given a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge, to another faith by the same Spirit . And he says each gift is different because they are “for the common good.” (ver. 7).
The Church of Christ is exactly "one body," as Paul preaches. In the human body, the eye cannot say to the hand, "I don't want you," or the head to the foot, "I don't want you." Each one plays a role as an important part of the body.
The church is same, says Paul. Each person is a limb that constitutes “the body of Christ.” Good looks aren't important. On the contrary, Paul says that the part that "looks weak in the body" is actually necessary.

The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and asked him to show them a sign from heaven. They were so different in their understanding of the faith that they would not normally work together. However, all of them had a hostile relationship with Jesus, so this time they fought together to test Jesus.
The Jews asked for a "sign" to confirm their faith. InµCorinthians 1:22, we find "Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, ..." They tried to recognize the testimony and splendor of their faith in certain visible "signs."
But Jesus says, " A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah." What does this mean? Also, what does it mean to " interpret the signs of the times"? We will listen to this through the words of today's passage of scripture.

One Sabbath, Jesus and his disciples were walking through a grainfield. At that time, the disciples picked and ate ears of wheat as they walked along.
According to the rule of the law, such an act would have been perfectly acceptable on a normal day. According to Deuteronomy 23:25, travelers are free to pick and eat wheat as long as they do not put a sickle into the field.
However, this day was the Sabbath, and no work was allowed. It is said that the Pharisee Jews at that time set a number of "labor they must not do on the Sabbath" which was one in forty. For doing four of these forbidden labors: harvesting, blowing the chaff, and preparing the threshing and flour, the disciples were accused of breaking the law. For these rabbis, breaking the law was a serious offence as a capital crime.
Jesus says to this. "The Sabbath was made for man. Therefore, the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath." From this passage, we will consider the meaning of the Sabbath today.

Genesis ch.27 mentions the case of cause that the younger brother Jacob, not the older brother of twins, was chosen as an Issac’s heir out of rule, in the story of the leaders of the tribe, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob.
The case was that Jacob conspired with his mother, Rebekah, to disguise himself as his older brother, moreover, he tricked his father Issac into thinking he was Esau by making him eat deer meat, which was Issac’s favorite, and cheated God’s blessing from his father.
Esau did not have a special fault. However, the Bible mentions 2 inappropriate behaviors in Esau to become a leader of Israel as people of God; as a foreshadowing of such a case.
First, Esau despised his birthright. (Gen. 25:34) Second, Esau married foreign daughter (the Hittite). (Gen. 26:34)They were not trifles. A life of faith is directly linked to the attitude of what we cherish in our lives. What is the blessed life? We learn it from Genesis.

Today’s scripture, in Romans 5:12, compares Adam and Christ after the explanation of the characteristic words in this letter “Justice through Faith.”
“just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin,” means all human beings has had sins through the Fall of Adam, and Adam has become a model (an example) of all human beings. the Fall of Adam is not an individual problem but for all the people in common. Therefore, Paul says Adam is a man (a figural) who are indicated Jesus Christ in advance.
Paul says, however. “Grace” through Faith, that is, the salvation through Jesus Christ, has more covered Adam’s sin. As strong as the fire flows, fire fighters try to water-discharge more powerfully to put out a fire. It’s same. Grace is fulfilled in lots of sins. From this passage, we will listen to the message today.
