1 Corinthians 14:40

In a proper and orderly way. "These who have spiritual gifts must not fight and quarrel and try to outdo each other; and the women prophets must not judge the speakers or interrupt the worship with questions."

The Resurrection. The Greeks viewed the body as the "prison of the soul," and expected their happiness to come by being freed from the body forever by death. The false teacher, to please the Greeks, denied the raising from death of the body; taught that the only resurrection Christ promised was a spiritual resurrection from the death of sin; and taught that this resurrection was already past (2 Timothy 2:18). It does make a difference whether we think the body is a "prison of the soul," or a "temple of the Holy Spirit" (1 Corinthians 6:19). Paul taught that man himself is a trinity (1 Thessalonians 5:23), and showed the raising from death of the body is one of the great Christian doctrines (Acts 17:18; Acts 17:31-32). In this chapter he examines the raising of Christ from death, and how this relates to the raising of the dead.
