About the Book of 1 Corinthians Quiz

Paul wrote 1 Corinthians to a lively but troubled church he had planted in the busy port city of Corinth. The believers were split into factions, tolerating serious sin, suing one another, arguing about food sacrificed to idols and showing off their spiritual gifts. Paul answers them with the message of Christ crucified, the picture of the church as one body with many parts, the famous chapter on love, and the great defence of the resurrection. This quiz covers all 16 chapters, and every answer comes with the chapter and verse.
