What was the result of the testimony of Christ being confirmed in the Corinthians?
The confirmation meant the Corinthians came behind in no gift; they were just as potentially able to accomplish great things as anyone could be, waiting for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. It also meant they would be confirmed unto the end, so that they might be blameless.
Les explains that the testimony of Christ was confirmed, sealed, and settled in the Corinthians, so they came behind in no gift. He says they were just as potentially able to accomplish great things as anybody could be, waiting for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Les then connects this to I Corinthians, verse 8, where Paul writes that they would be confirmed unto the end, that they may be blameless. Even with all their failures and weaknesses, if the Lord had come, Paul says they would stand before Him blameless. Les stresses the basis is grace, not their own merit.
