“Let all things be done decently and in order” (1 Corinthians 14:40).
From various Bible commentaries, we could gather that the Corinthian church had some unruly worship services. Those services discredited God. Paul gave this church guidelines and admonished them with the words of today’s verse. Given the different factions, the immorality of the people and the improper use of gifts within that church, Paul had to be bold and set down some rules.
Tomorrow we will emphasize further the need for God’s children to be body builders in their churches. If you are using your gift or gifts properly, you will make a difference in your church. This will also make an impact on those around you.
