The gift of speaking in tongues is a message to the body of Christ which is given in tongues and is not understood by the user. Therefore, it must be followed by an interpretation by the language understood by the congregation. The gift of tongues is usually news of a prophecy for the Lord's church and must be followed by an interpretation. If the gift of tongues is not followed by an interpretation, it cannot build up the church. Therefore, the author will discuss the apostle Paul's perspective on tongues based on 1 Corinthians 14.

In 1 Cor 11:17–34, Paul admonishes the church in Corinth for celebrating the Lord’s Supper in a way that maintains and perpetuates inequitable treatment based on socioeconomic status. His concern is that such practices harm the church’s witness and create a disunity that tears the body of Christ apart and connects the church to liability for the death of Jesus himself. In Paul’s argument, food and dining do not function merely symbolically or metaphorically, but serve to actualize either unity in the body of Christ or division that leads to physical consequences of judgment from God. Paul grounds his argument in the logic of the tradition of the Lord’s Supper as it was handed down to him.

The research objective that the author means is to find out how the unity of the body of Christ in the church can be carried out properly according to 1 Corinthians 3: 3-9. moving on from the core written in the text above, the author wants the whole congregation to understand the unity of the body of Christ correctly today, given the importance of the unity of the body of Christ in the church, so that some of the more mature congregations in the faith must support the congregation that is not yet mature faith. This writing is intended so that all God's people understand well that the unity of the body of Christ is not to become divided because of disagreements, divisions and differences of opinion. but the body of Christ is the one that brings God's people better together. Some of the things that concern the author in this study are how the congregation can understand the unity of the body of Christ correctly.

This essay argues that Paul’s discourses in 1 Corinthians 12 and 15 concerning the church as the Body of Christ and the resurrection of the body offer a biblical challenge to colorblind white supremacy when read in conversation with feminist and womanist theologians. Reading Paul through feminist and womanist treatments of the body and trauma provides a nuanced theology of the body and a complex account of the concrete wounds of white supremacy while also presenting theological and ethical resources for resisting colorblindness.

AbstractThis paper examines the meaning of synergy in the ministry and life of believers according to 1 Corinthians 3: 4-9. Servants of God tend to leave the place of service because they are at odds with God or others. Among the Corinthians in the early church, there was strife among the members of the body of Christ. To deal with divisions, Paul talks about becoming partners with God (synergy). In the Orthodox  church this concept emphasizes how to achieve salvation but this concept is not emphasized in the world of ministry. Whereas in Protestant literature this concept is rarely even perhaps foreign to be discussed as something important, so that it is reflected in ministries within the church and outside the church which often cause divisions. The results show that only through synergy with God can humans synergize with one another (one with God and one with others remains strong). Synergize is to be partners with Allah who continue to exercise their free will according to God's will so that they are not easily tempted by the evil of sin. Remembering God dynamically produces union with God and gives the best service to others as Christ served. Of course, only synergy makes humans avoid fellowship and enmity between others. AbstrakTulisan ini meneliti makna sinergi dalam pelayanan dan kehidupan orang percaya menurut 1 Korintus 3:4-9. Pelayan Tuhan cenderung meninggalkan tempat pelayanan karena berselisih dengan Allah atau sesama. Di antara jemaat Korintus di masa gereja mula-mula perselisihan di antara anggota tubuh Kristus sudah terjadi. Untuk menghadapi perpecahan, Paulus berbicara bagaimana menjadi kawan sekerja Allah (sinergi). Dalam gereja Ortodoks konsep ini menekankan bagaimana mencapai keselamatan akan tetapi konsep ini tidak ditekankan dalam dunia pelayanan. Sedangkan dalam literatur Protestan konsep ini jarang bahkan mungkin asing dibahas sebagai sesuatu yang penting, sehingga tercermin dalam pelayanan-pelayanan dalam gereja maupun di luar gereja yang sering menimbulkan perpecahan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hanya melalui sinergi dengan Allah manusia bisa bersinergi dengan sesamanya (menyatu dengan Allah dan persatuan dengan sesama tetap kokoh). Bersinergi adalah menjadi kawan sekerja Allah yang terus melatih kehendak bebasnya sesuai dengan kehendak Allah sehingga tidak mudah tergoda oleh kejahatan dosa. Mengingat Allah secara dinamis menghasilkan persatuan dengan Allah dan memberi pelayanan terbaik kepada sesama seperti Kristus melayani. Tentunya, hanya sinergilah yang membuat manusia terhindar dari persekutuan serta permusuhan di antara sesama.

Great Stress

Anabaptism and its descendant movement, Mennonitism, came into being through the illegal baptism of believers upon confession of faith. Anabaptist worship was characterized by form and freedom. It included reading and interpreting the Bible by preachers and other worshipers, practicing baptism, the Lord’s Supper, anointing, and other acts while allowing for immediate promptings by the Holy Spirit, as in 1 Corinthians 14. Routinized worship developed gradually by means of leaders internalizing important turns of phrase as well as writing prayers and publishing prayer books. Some streams of Mennonitism, like the Amish, have laid great stress on following the tradition that emerged. At the same time there arose renewal and missionary movements for whom Spirit-led improvisation was essential for true worship that was accessible to seekers. Beginning in the late 19th century, Mennonite churches arose in the Global South. For them the movement between form and freedom was essential to authentic worship. Singing is the central act of the congregation in all types of Mennonite worship. There is a lean sacramentalism in which the visible church is the body of Christ in history. In the practice of ordinances or sacraments, there has been great concern from the beginning that God’s acts of grace be received by the faith of the believer in order for such acts to be true to their intention. The Lord’s Supper emphasizes encountering both Christ and one’s sisters and brothers in a transformative way. Baptism is entering a covenant with Christ and the church. In addition, anointing, discipline, funerals, marriage and celibacy, parent and child dedication, and ordination are practiced.

Charismatic gifts are an understudied and divisive aspect of Christian worship. Yet, in 1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12, and Ephesians 4, Paul links these phenomena with his famous metaphor for the unity of the church as the Body of Christ. This paper argues that one can better understand how the Holy Spirit unifies both the universal and local church by viewing charismatic gifts as liturgical group actions. After briefly introducing the category of charismatic gifts, I argue that charismatic gifts are a semi–scripted improvisational activity which immerse participants into the core Christian narrative of the universal and invisible church. I then argue that charismatic gifts are given to and enacted by communities, rather than individuals, and so are an example of group action actualising the corporate agency of the local church. When charismatic gifts are seen as liturgical group actions it becomes clear how the Spirit uses charismatic gifts to transform the gathered people of God into the unified Body of Christ.

The Way

In 1 Cor 11:17-34 Paul reprimands the Corinthians for the way in which they gather for worship, and addresses the Corinthians’ situation with the words of institution. This paper, exploring how the Lord’s Supper is importantly related to discerning the body of Christ and the church’s response to people on the social margins, pursues a question of the contemporary church: are we eating rightly? An examination of 1 Cor 11:17-34 reveals that the Lord’s Supper criticizes developments in society that have come to base the worth of bodies on their ability to meet society’s prized values of achievement, consumption, and production. Bodies that do not meet these aims are positioned as problems. This paper argues that people with profound intellectual disabilities, who often are placed on the social margins of both church and society, have much to teach about what it means to gather and be with one another as the church.
