1 Paul says: Love first. Ask God for gifts. Want most to speak God’s words that help people. ❤️️ 2 If you use other talk no one knows, you talk to God, not people; no one gets it; you say secret things with God. ️ 3 If you speak God’s words, you help people be strong, you help them, you make sad hearts feel better. ️ 4 Other talk helps only you; God’s words help the whole church be strong. ➡️⛪ 5 I wish you all could use other talk, but I want more that you speak God’s words; if other talk is explained, then it helps like that too. ️ 6 Family, if I come and only use other talk, I do not help you; I must bring a new word from God, or learning, or teaching you can use. ♂️️➡️ 7 Think of a flute or a harp; if notes are not clear, who knows the song? ❓ 8 If a trumpet sound is not clear, who will get ready to fight? ⚔️❓ 9 So you too: if your words are not clear, who can know what you say? You are just talking to the air. ️ 10 There are many kinds of talk in the world, and each talk has a meaning. ️ 11 If I do not know the meaning, we are like strangers to each other. ♂️↔️♀️ 12 You all want gifts from God; try most of all to help the church be strong. ⛪ 13 So, the one who uses other talk should pray to also explain it. ️ 14 If I pray in other talk, my heart prays, but my mind does not learn. ❤️♂️ 15 So I will pray with my heart and my mind; I will sing with my heart and my mind. ❤️ 16 If you thank God with words no one knows, new people cannot say “Amen,” because they do not know what you said. ❓♂️ 17 You thank God well, but the other person is not helped. ➡️ 18 I thank God I use other talk more than all of you. ️ 19 But in church, I want five clear words to teach others, not many words no one knows. ⛪5️⃣️✅ 20 Family, do not think like little kids; be like babies about bad things, but think like grown-ups. 21 God’s rules say: “I will use other talk and other lips to speak to this people, but they still will not listen,” says God. ️❌ 22 So, other talk is a sign for people who do not believe; God’s words are for people who do believe. ️✅ 23 If all of you use other talk and new people or people who do not believe come in, they will say you are not okay. ⛪️️️ 24 But if all of you speak God’s words, and a new person comes, he will feel sorry for wrong and will think about his life. ️ 25 His secret heart things will show; he will bow down and worship God and say, “God is here with you!” ♂️✨ 26 So, family, when you meet, some have a song, some a lesson, some a new word, some other talk, some an explain; do all to help the church be strong. ️⛪ 27 If people use other talk, only two or three, and take turns, and someone must explain. 2️⃣3️⃣ 28 If no one can explain, be quiet in church; talk to yourself and to God. ⛪ 29 Two or three who speak God’s words may talk, and the others should think and check the words. ✌️➕☝️✅ 30 If a new word comes to someone sitting, the first one should stop and wait. ✋➡️️ 31 You can all speak God’s words one by one, so all can learn and all can feel brave. 1️⃣by1️⃣ 32 The speaker can control himself; he can stop and wait. ️⏸️ 33 God makes peace, not mix-up; this is for all the churches of God’s people. ️✅ 34 Women should be quiet in the church; they should listen and learn, like God’s rules say. ⛪ 35 If a woman wants to learn, she should ask her own man at home; it is not good for a woman to speak in church. ❓ 36 Did God’s word start with you? Are you the only ones who got it? ❓ 37 If someone thinks he speaks God’s words or is very close to God, he must know I write God’s rule. ✅ 38 If someone will not listen, then people will not listen to him. ➡️♂️ 39 So, family, want to speak God’s words, and do not stop people who use other talk. ️ 40 Do all things in a good and calm way and in order. ✅️
