• The statement of liberty—6:12—they misapplied this . . .
• A logical error—v.
13a—he then corrects it . . .
• The corrective teaching—vv.
13b-20—he shows how the error is wrong . . . 1) The future of the body, v. 14; 2) The union with the body, vv.15-17; 3) The use of the body, v. 18; 4) The ownership of the body, vv.
19-20
The statement of liberty, v. 12
• All things are lawful for me—this needs some background
• How Christians may relate to the will of God (this is relevant to the subject of liberty)
The will of God
• It is never the will of God to do what is forbidden by God: 1) Parameter—with the passage correctly interpreted for right now
• It is always the will of God to do what is commanded by God: 1) Parameter—assumes the interpretation is correct
• All other areas are left to mature judgment—this is the area we call “liberty”—(this is what we are looking at in I Cor.
6:12-20)
“All things are lawful for me”—(there are qualifications needed)
• Immediate context—6:9-10
• NT teaching
Parameter
• Freedom/liberty is entirely consistent with servant-hood: Freedom from human viewpoint and tyranny—couple examples . . . 1) Faith plus teaching; 2) Chains of religious performance
• Freedom is consistent with authority
Liberty
• Does not consist of what I can do
• Does not consist of what I should do
• Liberty is what I “may” do: 1) I Cor.
6, 8, 10—one single principle—the exercise of liberty is determined by (does the “may” apply?”) . . . 1) Circumstances that surround it; 2) The person who practices it
