在感恩報告中（當時書信的開頭通常以感恩開始），保祿列舉了格林多教會所領受的恩典。

在接下來的章節中，我們發現這些恩寵其實是需要保祿糾正和教導的問題。

在感恩的結尾，保祿表達了對上主的希望，願上主親自使他們完全無瑕疵。

感恩報告的關鍵在於保祿對基督徒生活的詮釋。

我們蒙召與耶穌相交。

或許，格林多人冒著風險，以希臘人的方式理解耶穌，將耶穌視為希臘神話中的某一神祇，或視為他們的一位哲學家。

今天，我們也面臨同樣的風險。

我們始終面臨著將耶穌視為過去偉大導師的危險，而祂卻是我們生命的源泉，我們需要每日努力加深與祂的聯合。

In his thanksgiving report (it was customary to begin letters with a thanksgiving), Paul lists the gifts the community of Corinth has received.

In the following chapters, we discover that those gifts are in fact problems that need Paul’s correction and instruction.

At the end of the thanksgiving, Paul expresses the hope that God himself will make them perfect and unblemished.

The key point of the thanksgiving is Paul’s interpretation of Christian life.

We are called to communion with Jesus.

Perhaps, the Corinthians risked to understand Jesus in the Greek way, to consider Jesus as similar to some of the deities of Greek mythology, or as one of their philosophers.

That risk is ours today.

We are always in the dangerous risk of considering Jesus as a great master of the past, whereas He is the source of our life and we need to daily strive to deepen our union with Him.
