- Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults.
- In the Law it is written: "Through men of strange tongues and through the lips of foreigners I will speak to this people, but even then they will not listen to me," says the Lord.
- Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
- So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and some who do not understand or some unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind?
- But if an unbeliever or someone who does not understandcomes in while everybody is prophesying, he will be convinced by all that he is a sinner and will be judged by all,
|
- Brethren, do not be children in your thinking; yet in evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature.
- In the Law it is written, "BY MEN OF STRANGE TONGUES AND BY THE LIPS OF STRANGERS I WILL SPEAK TO THIS PEOPLE, AND EVEN SO THEY WILL NOT LISTEN TO ME," says the Lord.
- So then tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophecy is for a sign, not to unbelievers but to those who believe.
- Therefore if the whole church assembles together and all speak in tongues, and ungifted men or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad?
- But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an ungifted man enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all;
|
- and the secrets of his heart will be laid bare. So he will fall down and worship God, exclaiming, "God is really among you!"
- What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be done for the strengthening of the church.
- If anyone speaks in a tongue, two--or at the most three--should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret.
- If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and God.
- Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said.
|
- the secrets of his heart are disclosed; and so he will fall on his face and worship God, declaring that God is certainly among you.
- What is the outcome then, brethren? When you assemble, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation Let all things be done for edification.
- If anyone speaks in a tongue, it should be by two or at the most three, and each in turn, and one must interpret;
- but if there is no interpreter, he must keep silent in the church; and let him speak to himself and to God.
- Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others pass judgment.
|
- And if a revelation comes to someone who is sitting down, the first speaker should stop.
- For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged.
- The spirits of prophets are subject to the control of prophets.
- For God is not a God of disorder but of peace. As in all the congregations of the saints,
- women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says.
|
- But if a revelation is made to another who is seated, the first one must keep silent.
- For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all may be exhorted;
- and the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets;
- for God is not a God of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.
- The women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says.
|
- If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.
- Did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only people it has reached?
- If anybody thinks he is a prophet or spiritually gifted, let him acknowledge that what I am writing to you is the Lord's command.
- If he ignores this, he himself will be ignored.
- Therefore, my brothers, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.
|
- If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church.
- Was it from you that the word of God first went forth? Or has it come to you only?
- If anyone thinks he is a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize that the things which I write to you are the Lord's commandment.
- But if anyone does not recognize this, he is not recognized.
- Therefore, my brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak in tongues.
|
- But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way.
|
- But all things must be done properly and in an orderly manner.
