The title "Perfect Mess" could suggest that things in the  Corinthian church were   as bad as they could be, but the opposite is  also true. As we    study the   2nd half of the letter, we need to remember  that Paul was writing to a   group of people who had put their faith in  Jesus, who were perfect, having received the righteousness of Jesus  (1: 1 -  9). This term we will cover food sacrificed to idols, right worship, spiritual gifts and the resurrection. Often compared to listening  to one  side of a telephone conversation, it is not always certain  what the Corinthians were saying or doing. Some issues seem distant  and even irrelevant, while other topics remain modern  controversies. We will attempt to draw out the ongoing significance  of how we love in a way that honors God.
