Despite God’s prohibition and warning of terrible consequences, the humans still chose to eat the fruit of the forbidden tree! What led to this choice and decision?

Genesis 3:1-7

¹ Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

      面对哥林多教会出现的滥用方言、误用方言的问题，由于情况复杂，因而保罗很谨慎地引导信徒来明白真理。保罗先从教义着手，说明一切属灵的恩赐无非旨在证明耶稣是主，因此这成为判别真伪属灵恩赐的唯一准则。同时也指出神设立不同恩赐的目的在于建立教会，恩赐不是为了炫耀自己。保罗也强调爱心造就人比知识更重要，爱是最大的属灵恩赐。爱是否能造就人成为辨别其他属灵恩赐的唯一合法标准。保罗指出，先知讲道比说方言更造就教会，并为说方言给予指引。
