Regimented, In Other Words

Sharing Options

“In 1 Corinthians 14:40, Paul requires, among other things, that everything be done according to taxis, according to order. He is not just discouraging chandalier-swinging, he is requiring something else, of a different kind, in its place. The word means ‘arrangement; order; a fixed succession observing also a fixed time; orderly array [in a military sense].’ God requires that everything in the Church should be done according to a set arrangement. Far from ‘quenching the Spirit,’ these are the instructions of the Spirit” (Mother Kirk, p. 136).
