Perfect Mess - Week 7 - Tongues

The title     "Perfect Mess" could suggest that things in the  Corinthian church   were   as bad as they could be, but the opposite is  also true. As we   study the   2nd half of the letter, we need to remember  that Paul was   writing to a   group of people who had put their faith in  Jesus, who   were perfect,   having received the righteousness of Jesus  (1: 1 - 9). This term we will cover food sacrificed to idols, right worship,      spiritual gifts and the resurrection. Often compared to listening to     one  side of a telephone conversation, it is not always certain what    the   Corinthians were saying or doing. Some issues seem distant and    even   irrelevant, while other topics remain modern controversies. We    will   attempt to draw out the ongoing significance of how we love in a    way   that honors God.
