Henry, I went and read your blog regarding Corinthinans, It sounds as though the text is taken out of its context. as a lecture you are aware that order is only what we see on paper. Even when we preach if God [ says go in this direction we must leave what we wrote and go] right? Were there not times when Jesus had to change his plans?

When people want to stay with the same routine that is a signal of fear. We have a lot of that in the church. What do not understand is that rules are made to keep us from going astray. If the Holy Spirit is in the Worship Experience then we are moving in the right direction. You know people do not like change. People like to be in control.

We also have to be careful of our language “manage” is a secular term. Jesus never managed He led. In Corinthians 14:26 the key verse is Let everything be done for building up the church. Remember we are the church in partnership with God.

I am enjoying this conversation. Thanks
