“Let all things be done decently and in order” (1 Corinthians 14:40).
Though I used this verse before, some things bear repeating. Where there are no rules, guidelines, or by-laws, chaos reigns. This applies to churches and any other organization.
Women, we have a calling to participate in church side by side with its men. How we handle that calling will either bring shame or glory to God. We should want to do whatever necessary to promote the cause of Christ and edify others through the local church. Thus we will bring glory to our Savior. If we choose to not follow God’s plan, we will have a negative impact on others. Let’s be willing to submit to God’s Will for the salvation of souls by carrying out the work of the church “decently and in order.”
