Paul is wondering why Christians are unable to settle minor disputes in the present given that they will rule with Jesus in heaven. We are told we will someday judge the world and angels. We aren’t ready to rule with Jesus today, but with the Holy Spirit’s help, we should be able to at least handle minor problems. So how are you dealing with conflict in your life? Do your reactions to others show you are preparing to rule with Jesus, or are you like the people to whom Paul is writing?
