Transcript
- 0:04SPEAKER_00: Follow my example just as I follow the example of Christ being under authority.
- 0:14SPEAKER_00: I praise you because you remember me in all things.
- 0:19SPEAKER_00: You follow closely the teachings I gave you, but I want you to understand this the head of every man is Christ, and the head of every woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
- 0:39SPEAKER_00: Every man who prophesies or prays with his head covered brings shame to his head, but every woman who prays or prophesies should have her head covered.
- 0:54SPEAKER_00: If her head is not covered, she brings shame to her head.
- 1:00SPEAKER_00: Then she is the same as a woman who has her head shaved.
- 1:07SPEAKER_00: If a woman does not cover her head, it is the same as cutting off all of her hair.
- 1:15SPEAKER_00: But it is shameful for a woman to cut off her hair or to shave her head.
- 1:22SPEAKER_00: So she should cover her head.
- 1:26SPEAKER_00: But a man should not cover his head because he is made like God and is God's glory, but woman is man's glory.
- 1:38SPEAKER_00: Man did not come from woman, woman came from man, and man was not made for woman, woman was made for man.
- 1:50SPEAKER_00: So that is why a woman should have her head covered with something that shows she is under authority.
- 2:00SPEAKER_00: Also she should do this because of the angels.
- 2:05SPEAKER_00: But in the Lord the woman needs the man, and the man needs the woman.
- 2:13SPEAKER_00: This is true because woman came from man, but also man is born from woman.
- 2:21SPEAKER_00: Really everything comes from God.
- 2:25SPEAKER_00: Decide this for yourselves.
- 2:27SPEAKER_00: Is it right for a woman to pray to God about something on her head?
- 2:33SPEAKER_00: Even nature itself teaches you that wearing long hair is shameful for a man, but wearing long hair is a woman's honor.
- 2:44SPEAKER_00: Long hair is given to the woman to cover her head.
- 2:49SPEAKER_00: Some people may still want to argue about this, but we and the churches of God don't accept what those people are doing.
- 3:02SPEAKER_00: The Lord's Supper In these things I tell you now I don't praise you.
- 3:10SPEAKER_00: Your meetings hurt you more than they help you.
- 3:14SPEAKER_00: First, I hear that when you meet together as a church, you are divided, and this is not hard to believe because of your idea that you must have separate groups to show who the real believers are.
- 3:31SPEAKER_00: When you all come together, it is not really the Lord's Supper you are eating.
- 3:37SPEAKER_00: I say this because when you eat, each one eats without waiting for the others.
- 3:45SPEAKER_00: Some people don't get enough to eat or drink, while others have too much.
- 3:52SPEAKER_00: You can eat and drink in your own homes.
- 3:56SPEAKER_00: It seems that you think God's church is not important.
- 4:02SPEAKER_00: You embarrass those who are poor.
- 4:05SPEAKER_00: What can I say?
- 4:07SPEAKER_00: Should I praise you?
- 4:09SPEAKER_00: No, I cannot praise you for this.
- 4:12SPEAKER_00: The teaching I gave you is the same that I received from the Lord.
- 4:18SPEAKER_00: On the night when the Lord Jesus was handed over to be killed, he took bread and gave thanks for it.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: Then he divided the bread and said, This is my body, it is for you.
- 4:33SPEAKER_00: Eat this to remember me.
- 4:35SPEAKER_00: In the same way, after they ate, Jesus took the cup of wine.
- 4:42SPEAKER_00: He said, This cup represents the new agreement from God, which begins with my blood sacrifice.
- 4:50SPEAKER_00: When you drink this, do this to remember me.
- 4:54SPEAKER_00: This means that every time you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are telling others about the Lord's death until he comes again.
- 5:05SPEAKER_00: So if you eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in a way that does not fit its meaning, you are sinning against the body and against the blood of the Lord.
- 5:18SPEAKER_00: Before you eat the bread and drink the cup, you should examine your own attitude.
- 5:27SPEAKER_00: If you eat and drink without paying attention to those who are the Lord's body, your eating and drinking will cause you to be judged guilty.
- 5:39SPEAKER_00: That is why many in your group are sick and weak, and many have died.
- 5:45SPEAKER_00: But if we judged ourselves in the right way, then God would not judge us.
- 5:51SPEAKER_00: But when the Lord judges us, He punishes us to show us the right way.
- 5:58SPEAKER_00: He does this so that we will not be condemned with the world.
- 6:04SPEAKER_00: So my brothers and sisters, when you come together to eat, wait for each other.
- 6:11SPEAKER_00: If some are too hungry to wait, they should eat at home.
- 6:17SPEAKER_00: Do this so that your meeting together will not bring God's judgment on you.
- 6:23SPEAKER_00: I will tell you what to do about the other things when I come.
