Letters of Recommendation


  "Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no division among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment."

 —I Corinthians 1:10

 

 The Church at Corinth was plagued with problems and unanswered questions.  Apostle Paul wrote this letter in response to those problems, concerns and questions of the believers at Corinth.  He shared words of advice to promote a spirit of unity among the brethren.  His recommendations were that Jesus Christ be relevant in every area of the believer's life; and that the application of Christian principles be evident in the lifestyle of the believer.

Letters of Recommendation are written for the purpose of promoting Christian principles into the life of the believer regardless of the situation, circumstance or condition he or she faces.  As believers we must find ourselves promoting unity in body of Christ; therefore, our counsel, advice and recommendations must reflect good sound biblical teaching.
