[Mike Abendroth]

Ours is an age of ‘super-star’celebrities, and the great danger is that the Christian church might be tempted to follow the same pattern as the world and grant its preachers and communicators, its worship leaders and youth workers, a similar celebrity status. . . . . give allegiance to human leaders, and Paul is saying to us, ‘That is absurd. . . . . following a Jesus who was reviled and rejected, spat upon and beaten, and eventually nailed up to that most agonizing and humiliating death on the cross? . . . David Jackman, Let’s Study 1 Corinthians, (Carlisle: The Banner of Truth Trust, 2004), p. 34
