1 Corinthians 13 & 14; 365 DAYS OF LOVE #113

PASSAGE: Love, Gifts of Prophecy and Tongues, Orderly Worship

MEMORY VERSE: "He must become greater; I must become less." John 3:30

NOTES: (v.1) "If I speak in the tongue of men and angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal."
(v.11) "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me."
(v. 13) "And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love."
1 Corinthians 14:
(v.12) "So it is with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, try to excel in gifts that build up the church."
(v.15) "So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind."
(v.20) "Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults."
(v.39) "therefore, my brothers, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues. 40But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way."

ACT OF LOVE: I wrote facebook encouragement notes to my small group, since I didn't have the time to write a well-thought out one during YSC. I'm super thankful for each one of these girls, and I'm excited to continue living for Christ with them!
