"The head of a woman is her husband and  the head of the husband is Christ   1Now I wish you to understand that the head of the woman is her husband , and the head of the husband is Christ , and the head of Christ is God. A"
"man should pray with his head uncovered  and a woman with her head veiled   2A man dishonours his head if he prays or prophesies with his head covered , and a woman dishonours her head if she prays or prophesies with her head unveiled . Man the image of God and woman  the glory of man   3A man should not cover his head since he is the image and glory of God , but a woman is the glory of man . 4For man did not come from woman but woman from man . Neither was man created for woman , but woman for man . For this reason , and because of the angels a woman ought to wear a sign of her submissive-"
"ness on her head .   6However neither women nor men are independent of each other in the Lord , for although woman came from man , man is born of woman and both come from God . Long hair a disgrace to a man  but an enhancement for a woman   7Judge for yourselves if it is proper for a woman to pray to God with her head unveiled . Does not nature itself teach you that long hair is a disgrace to a man? 9But if a woman has long hair it enhances her glory , for long hair is given to her as a covering .   10If anyone is disposed to disagree about this I say that we recognise no other practice , nor"
"do the other churches of God . Corinthians doing more harm  than good when they meet together   11Now in the following directives I have no praise for you , for when you meet together you are doing more harm than good . Divisions in the Corinthians church   12In the first place , I hear that when you meet together there are divisions among you , and to some extent I believe it . 13But no doubt there will be some divisions to distinguish which ofyou are approved of God . Inconsiderate eating habits  when met together as a church    Secondly , when you meet together prior to the Lord s Supper"
"each of you hasten to eat your own food without consideration for anybody else. One remains hungry while another gets drunk .   15Do you not have homes to eat and drink in? And why do you despise the church of God byhumiliating those who bring nothing to eat? Shall I praise you for this? Certainly not . The Lords Supper clarified   17Now as regards the Lord s Supper , this is what I received from the Lord and passed on to you: 18On the night Jesus was betrayed he took bread , and when he had given thanks he broke it and said , This is my body, do this in remembrance of me.   19In the same"
"way after the supper , he took the wine cup saying , This cup is the new covenant of my blood, drink it in remembrance of me.   So whenever you eat this bread and drink this wine you proclaim the Lord s death until he comes . Partaking of the Lords Supper unworthily  a cause of ill health   21Whoever partakes of the Lord s Supper unworthily is guilty of sinning against the bodyand blood of the Lord .  Therefore you ought to examine yourselves first, for anyone who eats the bread and drinks of the cup unworthily , eats and"
"drinks damnation not acknowledging the body of the Lord. 23That is why many of you are weak and sick and some of you have died .   24The Lord disciplines us in this way so that we will not be condemned with the world . Eat at home first if very hungry   25Brethren , when you assemble to eat together , wait for each other . 26If anyone is very hungry he should eat at home first so that you will not be condemned .   27When I come I will give you further directions on this matter."

"Corinthians warned of false spirits   1Now brethren , concerning spiritual gifts . When you"
"were pagans you were led astray todumb idols .  Therefore I want you to under- stand that no one will ever say Let Jesus be cursed , when speaking by the Spirit of God , nor will they say Jesus is Lord , except by the Holy Spirit .There are a variety of spiritual  gifts and manifestations   3There are a variety of gifts but it is the same Spirit who manifests them , and there are a variety of manifestations but the same Lord . To each person is given a manifestation for the common good . Gifts of the Spirit   4To one is given through the Spirit the teaching of wisdom , to another the"
"teaching of knowledge , to another to have great faith , to another gifts of healing . 5To another the performing of miracles , to another prophecy , to another discerning between spirits , to another speaking in different tongues , and to still another the interpretation of tongues . The various gifts likened to the different  uses of the parts of the body   6Now the body is not made up of one part but of many . The foot or the ear cannot say , I do not belong to the body , and if the whole body were an eye , where would the hearing be? Or an ear , where would the sense of smell be?"
"7God has so arranged the parts in the body that if one part suffers , every part suffers , and if one part is honoured , every part rejoices with it . And so it is with you who are parts of the body of Christ . Gifts and callings ranked in importance   9God has appointed first apostles , second prophets , third teachers , then workers of miracles , those having gifts of healing , those having charity , those with gifts of administration , and those who speak in different kinds of tongues .   10Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? Do all have gifts of"
"healing? 11Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret? No . But eagerly desire the greater gifts. The more excellent gift of love   12Now I will reveal to you a still more excellent gift. 13If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels but have not love , I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal .   14If I have the gift of prophecy and can understand all mysteries and all knowledge , and if I have faith that can move mountains but have not love , I am nothing .   15If I give all I have to the poor and sacrifice my body to be burned but have not love , I gain nothing . Love defined   16Love"
"is patient , love is kind , love does not envy , does not boast , is not proud . Love is not rude, nor self-seeking , nor easily angered , and keeps no record of wrongs .   17Love delights not in evil but rejoices in truth . Love always protects , always trusts , ever hopes , ever perseveres . 18Love never fails . Most of the spiritual gifts will be  unnecessary in kingdom of God   19When perfection comes our prophecies will cease , our tongues will be stilled and our knowledge will pass away . 20For our prophecies and our knowledge are imperfect , but when perfection comes , the imperfect"
"disappears .   21When I was a child I thought like a child , but when I became a man I put childish ways behind me .   22Now we see through a mirror darkly , but when perfection comes we shall see face to face. Now I know in part but then I shall know in full . Only faith, hope and love will remain   23When perfection comes , only these three will remain , faith , hope , and love and the greatest of these is love . Eagerly desire the other spiritual gifts  especially to prophesy   24So follow the way of love , but eagerly desire the other spiritual gifts especially the gift ofprophecy .    For"
"he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men , but to God . Indeed , no man understands him . He utters mysteries in the Spirit .  26On the other hand , he who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening , encouragement and comfort .   27But he who speaks in a tongue edifies only himself , whereas he who prophesies edifies the whole church . What good is speaking in tongues in church  if no one understands?   28I would like every one of you to speak in tongues , but I would rather you all prophesy . He who prophesies is"
"greater than he who speaks in tongues , unless he interprets , so that the church may be edified .   30If I come to you brethren and speak in tongues , what good will I be to you unless I bring you some revelation , or knowledge , or prophecy or word of instruction?   31If the trumpet sounds an unclear call , who will prepare himself for battle? Pray that you may interpret what you say  when you speak in a tongue   32Anyone who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret what he says .   33For if I pray in a tongue my spirit prays but my mind is unfruitful . So what shall I do? I will"
"pray with my spirit but I will also pray with my mind . 34I will sing with my spirit but I will also sing with my mind .   35And if you are praising God with your spirit , how can those who do not understand you sayAmen to your prayer?  You may be praising well enough but they are not edified .   37I thank God that I speak in tongues more than you all , but in the church I would rather speak five understandable words to instruct others , than ten thousand words in a tongue . If all spoke in tongues, unbelievers  who came in would say you are mad   38Brethren , stop thinking like children"
"except in regard to evil . Tongues are a sign for unbelievers while prophecy is for believers . However , if when the church met together everybody spoke in tongues and some unbelievers came in , would they not say that you are all mad? But if all prophesy, an unbeliever would be  convicted that he is a sinner   39But if everybody prophesied and an unbeliever came in he would be convicted that he is a sinner and be called to account , for the secrets of his heart would be laid bare . 40He would fall down and worship God exclaiming , God is really among you . Try to excel in gifts that"
"build up the church   41S o  i t  i s  w i t h  y o u . Unless you speak understandable words with your tongue how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air .   42Therefore since you are eager to have spiritual gifts , try to excel in gifts that build up the church . Rules governing tongues in church meetings   43What then shall we conclude brethren? When you meet together and one is given a hymn , a revelation , a tongue , or an interpretation , all is well and good for the strengthening of"
"the church . 44But if anyone speaks in a tongue , only two , or at the most three should speak , one at a time , and some- one must interpret .   45If there is no interpreter the speaker should remain silent in the church and pray only in hisspirit to God .   Rules governing prophecy in church meetings   46Also only two or three prophets should speak and the others weigh carefully what issaid.  If a prophecy comes to another , the first speaker should cease . Prophesy in turn that all may be instructed and edified . 48Prophets should have control over their gift for God is not a God of"
"confusion but of order . See that everything is done in a orderly way   49Therefore my brethren , be eager to prophesy . Do not forbid speaking in tongues , but see that everything is done in a orderly way. Women should not speak in church   50And as in all the congregations of the saints , your women should not speak in church but be in submission as the Law requires . 51If they wish to inquire about something let them asktheir husbands at home , for it is improper for a woman to speak in church."
