15 If we notice, he couldn’t teach the Corinthians deep things. They were just a—a—a baby fashion. They—they…He couldn’t go to them in the great, deep, the messages that he did to the Ephesians and he did to the Romans, and teach to them the deep things, because they wasn’t able to take it. They—they depended too much upon little sensations and little things like that. Just, “Well, praise the Lord, I got it! I—I had a—a revelation come to me. I had a psalm. I have a prophecy.” 16 And Paul said, “All these things will fail.” See? Every one of them, they’re just not to be trusted too much. And so, but, what he’s trying to get to the church, was that anchor, where we—where we have an anchor in Christ, where that we don’t trust upon sensations. We don’t trust upon revelations. We don’t trust these things. Only, we trust Christ. It’s by faith that we move out there. Just… 17 We notice Paul could teach the Ephesians there, how that before the foundation of the world, they were predestinated unto the adoption of the sons of God. Now, he…The Corinthians didn’t know nothing about that. They just…they had to have a little feeling, or something, little sensation, one this, that, and the other. And they depended on that. He couldn’t teach them the deep things. 18 So, I think it’s great when you got people that you can teach deep things, and the Holy Spirit can wind these great truths, and anchor it into the—the people’s hearts, so they know where they’re standing, sensation or no sensation, prophecy or no prophecy, and whatever it might be, whatever. If them…we don’t…Now remember, we’re not…I’m not trying to say that God does not deal through prophecy and things like that, but we don’t rely upon that. We got a deeper hold than that, you see. For, he said, “Wherever there is prophecies, it’ll fail. Where there’s tongues, it’ll cease. And where there…” 19 And all these sensations that those Corinthians had, not one of them was the evidence that they were saved. Not one of them was an evidence that they were saved. Not…If you could shout, if you could prophesy, if you could heal the sick, if you could speak with tongues, if you could interpret tongues, if you had wisdom, and you had knowledge, none of those mean you’re saved; not a one of them. You could have every one of them, Paul said, in First Corinthians 13, and be lost. “I am nothing,” see. 20 But, when you got love, an anchor! 57-0414 - "Corinthians, Book Of Correction"
