Jesus' First-Class Letters
Robert Dawson
2 Corinthians 3.1-3
Christmas time, for most families, involves a lot of traditions, some good and some bad. We have the decorations and displays of trees, lights, snowmen, reindeer, Santa's, wreaths, flowers, cakes, cookies, parties, dinners and presents.

Paul uses the imagery of a letter to teach the believers in Corinth about their relationship to Christ Jesus and to the world. In looking at what Paul has to say to this church we will learn that all believers are important letters of Christ. As a matter of fact we are first class priority letters that Christ has strategicall ...
