But as you abound in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all diligence, and in your love for us—see that you abound in this grace also.
–2 Corinthians 8:7

2Cor. 8:7 あなたがたは、 すべてのことに、 すなわち、 信仰にも、 ことばにも、 知識にも、 あらゆる熱心にも、 私たちから出てあなたがたの間にある愛にも富んでいるように、 この恵みのわざにも富むようになってください。

We need to abound in everything. It all starts with faith. 

It is this Good News that saves you if you continue to believe the message I told you—unless, of course, you believed something that was never true in the first place.
I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me. Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said. He was seen by Peter and then by the Twelve. After that, he was seen by more than 500 of his followers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have died. Then he was seen by James and later by all the apostles. Last of all, as though I had been born at the wrong time, I also saw him. For I am the least of all the apostles. In fact, I’m not even worthy to be called an apostle after the way I persecuted God’s church.

–1 Corinthians 15:2-9 NLT

We must continue to believe the message to be saved. What does this scripture do to the concept of  “once saved, always saved“?

Part of the testimony that we have as a Christian is we acknowledge Jesus has risen from the dead. A person who believes Jesus rose from the dead is a Christian, anyone else is not.   People saw Jesus and so will you who believe. 

For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.
–1 Corinthians 11:12

You can debate who is better a man or a woman if you like. Does God have some type of preference of men over women or vice versa? 

The fact of the matter is before God it’s about the heart. In actuality, women are just better at many things than guys. There are other things that guys just have to do. In both groups there are both world changers and flakes. Let’s be world changers for Jesus!

Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.
–1 Corinthians 10:20

1Cor. 10:20 いや、 彼らのささげる物は、 神にではなくて悪霊にささげられている、 と言っているのです。 私は、 あなたがたに悪霊と交わる者になってもらいたくありません。

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

–1 Corinthians 10:13

1Cor. 10:13 あなたがたの会った試練はみな人の知らないものではありません。 神は真実な方ですから、 あなたがたを、 耐えられないほどの試練に会わせることはなさいません。 むしろ、 耐えられるように、 試練とともに脱出の道も備えてくださいます。

There is always a way out. We must fight our flesh and the enemy. We must NEVER give up. 

Even so the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should live from the gospel.
–1 Corinthians 9:14

1Cor. 9:14 同じように、 主も、 福音を宣べ伝える者が、 福音の働きから生活のささえを得るように定めておられます。
