Title: Christian Worship is Corporate, Part 2
Passage: 1 Corinthians 14: 1-6
Speaker: Pastor Ryan Martin
Service: Morning Worship Service
Date: November 1, 2015
The main idea in 1 Cor 14:1-5 is that Christians should use their gatherings to build up others for the glory of God. This point, of course, goes beyond the specifics of speaking in tongues or prophecy. The specific point Paul is teaching here is that prophesy is superior to tongues in Christian assemblies. But the general principle Paul is driving at behind that instruction is that our gatherings should build up believers. Christian worship is corporate, and ought to be handled that way.
