Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0444A recorded on November 15, 1981 teaching from 1 Corinthians 9:22 – That I Might by all Means Save Some.
Pastor Cyril A. Stevens examines 1 Corinthians 9:22, focusing on the Apostle Paul’s strategy of adapting himself “to the weak” and becoming “all things to all men” to save some. Stevens clarifies that this passage is not about physical weakness but rather about engaging with people within their existing ways of worship and cultural contexts, such as Jewish traditions or what Paul termed “barbarian” societies. Stevens emphasizes understanding and connecting with individuals in their own spheres to lead them towards the liberty found in Christ, suggesting that superficial barriers should be crossed to effectively share the Gospel.
