First Corinthians

by Abe Lincoln

Overview

The purpose of this first letter to Corinth was two-fold: (1) to correct the problems which existed in that congregation, and (2) to answer questions which they had asked him. In this book Abe Lincoln meets these problems and questions head on as he discusses also the underlying principles and solutions that are as relevant today as they were in 55 A.D.

About the Author

Abe was born and reared on a farm near Sweetwater, Texas. He graduated from Sweetwater High and won for himself a scholarship to TCU and later transferred to ACC, now ACU, from which he received his B.S. Degree in 1950. Brother Lincoln's first venture was as a high school principal and football coach. Sundays were always devoted to a greater contest than athletics, as he proclaimed the Gospel of Christ. His first love soon emerged as the victor and thus he dedicated full time to the work of an evangelist.

Abe's over forty years on the firing line for the Lord took him to works in Iowa, Odessa, Midland and Fort Worth, Texas and over thirty years teaching in the Sunset International Bible Institute in Lubbock. In the late fifties, the Lincoln family labored with the Tex Williams family in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, for three years. Abe was working locally as both evangelist and elder with the church in Seminole, Texas along with his teaching duties in the Sunset International Bible Institute when he was called home to be with the Lord in February of 1997.

While at ACU, Abe met and married Dot Dollar. They have a son, Steve, and a daughter, Becky.
