Charles Spurgeon Commentary 1 Corinthians 1:5

"that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all utterance and all knowledge;" — 1 Corinthians 1:5 (ASV)

That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;

The church of Corinth was a church of all the talents: it was not, however, a church so much of all the graces, and so it was a very poor example for us. I sometimes think that its mode of worship is recorded rather as a warning beacon than as an example to us. It caused, incidentally through the abundance of their gifts and everybody wanting to exercise his gift, great divisions, and there was an absence of humility and love in the church. However, Paul is thankful for what they have.
