God wants our corporate worship gatherings to be thoughtful, too.
Paul devotes an entire chapter to this in 1 Corinthians 14 and concludes,
"Everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way."
Related to this, God insists that our worship services be understandable to unbelievers
when they are present in our worship gatherings.
Paul observed, "Suppose some strangers are in your worship service,
when you are praising God with your spirit. If they don't understand you,
how will they know to say, `Amen'?
You may be worshiping God in a wonderful way, but no one else will be helped. "
10 Being sensitive to unbelievers
who visit your worship gatherings is a biblical command.
To ignore this command is to be both disobedient and unloving.
For a full explanation of this,
see the chapter on "Worship Can Be a Witness"
in The Purpose Driven Church.
神也要我们聚集敬拜时,用意念来敬拜。保罗在哥林多前书十四章,使用整章来讨论这一点,他结论道:「凡事都要规规矩矩地按着秩序行。」
关于这一点,神坚持我们的聚会要能让在场的非信徒也能明白。保罗观察道:「假设有些陌生人来对与你的敬拜聚会,听见你用灵来赞美神。倘若他们不明白你的意思,他们如何晓得说阿们呢?你可以用一种美妙的方式来敬拜神,但其他人却不能有所得益。」对于参与敬拜聚会的未信者,要留意他们的感受,这是圣经的命令,忽视这个命令便是不顺服,也是没有爱心。关于这一点,关于这一点,完整的解释请看《直奔标竿》的第十三章:「敬拜能成为见证」。
