Question: FTV: However,...

1 Corinthians 3
Question: FTV: I...

Answer: ...man builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, his work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. (1 Corinthians 3:12-13)

Question: FTV: Don't...
Answer: ...you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple. (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)

Study Tip: Districts is over. Now begins the sprint to Nationals. What do you do when learning new material is done, and you're reviewing week after week? GET CREATIVE! Look for ways to make the material new and fresh by seeing it in new ways. For example, consider turning the questions around by playing "Jeopardy" - look at the answer and try to guess the question.

WEEK 12: Review 1 Corintians 1 - 4

This week (November 19 thru November 25), please review 1 Corinthians, Chapters 1 through 4.

Remember, there is no practice next Wednesday.


If you want to read the chapters online, click here. (Free website Biblegateway.Com)

DOWNLOAD: Did you miss the original downloads for these chapters? They are posted here one last time for 7 days. No password required, this time.
Study Tip: Reviewing is often harder than your initial studying because the material is no longer new. In fact, some quizzers decide not to study because "I already know it." BAD IDEA! The brain is designed to forget things we do not review or use regularly. Be sure this week to review Chapters 1 thru 4 of 1 Corinthians. If you are looking for a new way to view the book, try to look for how each chapter flows into the next, and the way that Paul tried to relate different arguments and discussions.

Study Tip: Having problems absorbing the text in such a way that you can get questions at practice? Consider getting your family or friends involved. Have them pick up a Bible and pick a verse from the chapter you are studying. Have them read the first half (or little bit) of the verse, and then you try to complete as much as you can. This gets you used to hearing the text the same way you will in practice.
