Church, Love and Edification

1 Corinthians 14

  • A meeting without a manual
  • Three determining factors
    • The purpose we meet for (v1, 26)
    • The God that we worship (v33a)
    • The Scriptures God has given us (v33b-38)
  • A case study: Tongues and Prophecy in Corinth
    • The differences between them (v1-5)
    • The value of intelligibility…
      • …for the sake of each other (v6-19)
      • …for the sake of the visiting unbeliever (v20-25)
    • Ordering tongues and prophecy (v26-40)
  • Applying the case study
