 bible.org: I Corinthians: Introduction and Outline   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Evidently some of the Corinthians were going to prostitutes and they were probably appealing their right to do so because of their liberty in Christ, but they had a false view of Christian freedom.
Evidently there were all types in the Corinthian church, and in contrast to the preceding group, some of the Corinthians had ascetic tendencies and thought that celibacy should be practiced by believers.
Some of the Corinthians were denying that there would be a resurrection of the dead (15:12), but Paul points out that they had not seen the implications of that position because it led to denial of Christ’s own resurrection and thus their very salvation.

 Commentary on 1 Corinthians Chapter 3
Paul ended chapter 2 by saying that Christians were able to understand all things, yet he had only taught elementary doctrine to the Corinthians, avoiding the points of speculation which the Greeks delighted in debating.
Milk is proper for awhile (1 Pet.2:2), but strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil (Heb.5:11-14).
The Corinthian church was the ground which was being tilled.

 I Corinthians Notes: 3:1-4:21
In 6:19 it is the Christian's body, and in Ephesians 2:20,21 it is the universal Church.
In their pride the Corinthians arrogantly presumed about their right to receive those things, that in part had been promised for this life, but that will only be fully realized with the coming of the kingdom of Christ (v.8).
They were extracting their values from the false standards and doctrinal fallacies born from the spirit of the age, forgetting that these values fall under the judgment of the cross of Christ.

In 1 Corinthians he is dealing with those who believe that Christ's resurrection has brought a realized eschatological newness of life which in fact is only another disguise for the exaltation of the flesh in religious enthusiasm.
In 1 Corinthians, he says the same thing when he notes in 15:10 what he has already said in 4:8-13, that in himself he is unworthy and impotent, but thanks to Christ, he is an effective apostle.
(3) Let it be proved that the true sense of some part of the original autographa is directly and necessarily inconsistent with some certainly known fact of history, or truth of science, or some other statement of Scripture certainly ascertained and interpreted.

 Clarke's Commentary - 2 Corinthians 3
The apostle shows, in opposition to his detractors, that the faith and salvation of the Corinthians were sufficient testimony of his Divine mission; that he needed no letters of recommendation, the Christian converts at Corinth being a manifest proof that he was an apostle of Christ, 1-3.
The hearts of the Corinthians are the substance on which the writing is made.
The Holy Spirit produces that influence by which the traces are made, and the mark becomes evident.

Presumably they reproach him for not possessing similar credentials and compel him to spell out his own qualifications ( 2 Cor 4:2 ; 5:12 ; 6:4).
The Corinthians themselves should have performed this function for Paul ( 2 Cor 5:12 ; cf 2 Cor 12:11).
Since he is forced to find something that can recommend him, he points to them: their very existence constitutes his letter of recommendation ( 2 Cor 3:1-2).

He points out that some of the Corinthian Christians had been arsenokoitai and malakoi, but were no longer.
Significant is the fact that the Apostle Paul seems to be the first writer to use arsenokoites (in 1 Corinthians 6:9).
Also to repeat, regarding the term malakos in 1 Corinthians 6:10 the term literally means "soft," and was used of catamites or male prostitutes, especially when it is used in contexts where the Greek word arsenokoites is also used (Bauer, 109, 488).

But to the Corinthians and anyone in the civilized world at that time, this was vivid imagery.
Pomp and Circumstance, with no detail too small, was definitely the picture Paul has painted for the Corinthians as he describes Christ's triumph as the General who has conquered sin and death for us.

For as his authority must have been sufficiently established in the view of the Corinthians, it would have been superfluous to make particular mention of "the will of God," had not wicked men attempted by indirect means to undermine that honorable rank which had been divinely assigned him.
His name is added for this reason, that the Corinthians, knowing his ardor and steadfastness in the gospel, could not but hold him in deserved esteem, and hence it is still more to his honor to be made mention of now as Paul's brother, than formerly as ruler of the synagogue.
Certain it is, that he did not mean to flatter the Corinthians, for he speaks under the direction of the Spirit of God, who is not accustomed to flatter.

Now the Corinthians had emphasized spiritual gifts, ministries, and other good things, but they had forgotten that which was best.

In a sense, we are eavesdropping on Paul's correspondence with the Corinthians.

 USCCB - NAB - 1 Corinthians 3
[1-4] The Corinthians desire a sort of wisdom dialogue or colloquy with Paul; they are looking for solid, adult food, and he appears to disappoint their expectations.
Paul counters: if such a dialogue has not yet taken place, the reason is that they are still at an immature stage of development (cf 1 Cor 2:6).
If the Corinthians were genuinely wise ( 1 Cor 3:18-20), their perceptions would be reversed, and they would see everything in the world and all those with whom they exist in the church in their true relations with one another.

The point here is that the phrases "the letter of the law" and "the spirit of the law" are not found here, or anywhere in the Bible, except in some misleading translations.
What in 2 Corinthians 3:6 is translated as "letter", was in the Greek text gramma, related to the verb graphô which was also used of engraving.
In other words: The "writing" which the saints received in their hearts (in their inner being) was not some "legal code", nor was it anything that was connected to the old covenant.

Some of the Corinthian holy-people were dividing themselves up into cliques, little sects to distinguish themselves from other holy-people.
It was the grace of God which enabled Paul to carry-out the ministry that God and the Lord Jesus Christ asked him to carry-out as a wise chief-craftsman; it was not by Paul’s own intellectual ability or by his physical strength or anything else from the realm of flesh.
Following upon Paul's putting the foundation among the Corinthians and those who believed the good-message thereby becoming God's building, it was and is-today available for another holy-person to build/edify on top of this foundation - but each person must observe how he builds upon it.

Paul begins this epistle asking, "Is Christ divided?" ( I Corinthians 1:13), and proceeds to discuss a variety of sins that produce division.
Later, he teaches the application of the body analogy to the church, and in chapter 13 he stresses the main function of every member: to love.
I Corinthians 12 leaves no doubt that we are all members of the Body of Christ, and it is the Body of Christ that is sent forth to witness for God in the world.

Many professors, and preachers also, show themselves to be yet carnal, by vain-glorious strife, eagerness for dispute, and readiness to despise and speak evil of others.
Such teaching tended to corrupt, to pollute, and destroy the building, which should be kept pure and holy for God.
God in Christ, reconciling a sinful world to himself, and pouring the riches of his grace on a reconciled world, is the sum and substance of the gospel.
