Here is the rest from yesterday.

1 Corinthians 14

21 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.
22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.
23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?
24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:
25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.
26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.
35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?
37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

Near the end when it says, the women are supposed to keep quiet during the church service, I thought God was being sorta strict there. But, I thing He says that because Eve sinned first, and pursuaded the man to sin, so God doesn't want that happining in His house.

This should be my last day home sick.

Wow yesterday was crazy in the teen room. we ended up playing the game where you need a 3 letter word that PL showed us at his parents house. Apparently eric already knew how to play, and brooke too. we had so much fun with it especially when everyone was getting frustrated.

so um for the devos, and sorry I haven't been on I've been sleeping, studying, eating, and doing projects since last thursday.

HAHAHAHAHAHA WOW I love the first 3 verses. If your all speaking in tounges and a visitor comes to your church he'll think that ya'll are crazy people. Now I know back then they actually used tounges in a way to glorify god through witnessing, or so I was told. For example I don't know any french except "excuse me", but maybe I'll start witnessing to some french dudes in frech. That also kinda reminds me of how PL said Stevo, the fluffy headed kid, was spending the night at his house or something and was watching a spanish program on t.v. So he fell asleep with both pillows and when PL tried to take one Stevo started screaming at him in spanish while sleeping. The thing is Stevo doesn't know any spanish, or so he claimed. Wow that was off topic so to continue... verses 34 and 35 does that mean at all or just women can't preach?
