A Message for the Charismatic Church (1 Corinthians Chapter 14)

1 Corinthians 14 emphasizes the importance of order in church worship, especially in using spiritual gifts like prophecy and speaking in tongues. Paul teaches that prophecy, which edifies and instructs, is more beneficial to the church than speaking in tongues without interpretation. He stresses that worship should be conducted in an orderly and understandable way to build up the congregation and encourage unity.
