CORRECIONS FOR DISORDERLY CONDUCT

My Dear Precious Child,
   My family life in heaven is orderly, peaceful, joyful, loving and kind.  Therefore, the replica of it in the earth, which is called the kingdom of God, when it comes into the lives of My children it is also orderly, peaceful, joyful, loving and kind.  Unfortunately, in the church in Corinth as well as some of the other churches, they had engaged in unruly, fleshly driven, unspiritual behavior which caused the unbelievers to be  repelled rather than be drawn in to become believers.  Almost all of of the disorderly activities seemed to be found in the church at Corinth.  That is why Paul called them babies, still drinking spiritual milk instead of their eating adult spiritual food which would cause them to be My spiritual children instead of unspiritual children.
   The believers in Corinth were allowing sexual immorality and conflicts in their church, plus allowing gluttony and drunkenness at the Lord's Supper.  They were suing one another in civil courts, arguing over doctrinal disagreements and eating food sacrificed to idols as the pagans did.  Some were mixing idolatry with My instructions on worshiping, and they were emotional rather than spiritual in their distribution of My gifts, thus being considered by Me to be unspiritual instead of spiritual people. 
    My guidance and correction in all of the unspiritual activities was direct and exacting through Paul's letters to them.  His instructions to them was that everything must be done in love for others and love for Me instead of for their own benefit and for their own attention, as My Holy Spirit inspired Paul to write.  For instance, in the matter of the gift of speaking in tongues he explained that the listeners are not benefited at all unless the gift of tongues is followed by the interpretation of the tongues.  Prophesies and interpretation of tongues bring comfort, highlight areas of improvement, consolation and encouragement to the listeners.  Everyone in the church benefits instead of only the person who brings a message in tongues benefiting from having the attention.  Paul told the people in Corinth that he wished that all of them had the gift of tongues, but the prophesies and interpretations of tongues benefit everyone not just the person speaking in the gift of tongues.  He said if someone comes to visit the church and everyone is talking in tongues, the visitor is not benefited at all because he or she is not hearing any wisdom and knowledge necessary to inspire or instruct him or her.  Paul related it to an orchestra where all the instruments play their individual tunes at the same time and there is no harmony.  He said that if the gift of tongues in a congregation or in ministry produces no intelligent message how can an unbeliever be benefited?  The person speaking in tongues without an interpretation of words in the understanding is like a savage to an unbeliever. (I Corinthians 14:9-12)  Paul wrote that he wanted them to use My gifts but their words must benefit the listeners.
    I instructed My children through Paul that those who have the gift of tongues must pray for the power of interpreting them because their mind is barren without the interpretation.  In praying it is good to be able to interpret your prayers so that your mind knows what you are praying, the same with singing praises, pray for the interpretation so that you know everything for which you are praying. (I Corinthians 14:13-15) If you just pray in tongues or speak in tongues in a congregation or a gathering, a new person will never be able to participate with an Amen if you are only praying in the Spirit without interpretation in your language of understanding .  (verses 15-19)
    Again Paul wrote that the Corinthians were childish in their beliefs as well as in their delivery of the gifts of My Holy Spirit.  (verses 20) His caution to them is that if an unbeliever comes into a group of believers where they are all speaking in tongues without an interpretation of the words, that unbeliever will think the people are crazy.  However, if they come into a gathering or a group of believers and there are prophesies of understanding, the unbeliever who comes in will find himself enlightened and even his secret thoughts will often be laid bare, causing him to worship Me because I have personally manifested Myself to him or her. (verses 23-25)
    His final instructions were that when they gather into a group, everyone should be ready with a song, a sermon or a revelation which will benefit everyone in their understanding.  If someone is ready with a message in tongues, then the person must also be able to interpret the message in understandable words, but it must be for the common good.  Only two or three messages in tongues with interpretations are in order, and one at a time.  If there is no interpreter present, then the one with a message in tongues must keep quiet and only speak to himself and Me. (verses 26-33)  Since I am a God of order instead of disorder, the prophets must control their prophetic spirits and not become disorderly in the group. 
   Since the women in the church at Corinth were often guilty of being the most disorderly in displaying their gifts, Paul told them to keep quiet in the church because of their tendency to be emotional and disorderly.  He said for them to ask their husbands at home what was said in church that was important.  In asking women not to speak in church, Paul was attempting to bring order to a disorderly church.  He started with the women in the Corinthian church who tended to be emotional rather than spiritual. (verses 34-35)    
   My guidance is that you DO NOT SUPPRESS THE GIFT OF TONGUES, but everything must be DONE WITH PROPRIETY AND IN ORDER in order to benefit the body of Christ. (I Corinthians 14:39-40)
