What 1 Corinthians 14:26 actually says:

“What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.”

What post-Biblical traditions have twisted it into:

“What is it then, attendees? When you enter a ‘church’ building, each one finds a spectator seat for a staged ‘worship’ performance followed by a monopolizing monologue ‘sermon’ by the same ‘Senior Pastor’ week after week from a raised podium above you. Let all things be done (especially when the ushers pass the plate) to build up the ‘church.’”

Fortunately, God’s people are increasingly done with going to a “church” …

And are learning to be the church by gathering once again, one with another, like the New Testament actually commands.

It’s amazing, though, how those who most readily affirm Sola Scriptura …

Seem least likely to apply it to how they actually gather as the Body of Christ and seem most likely to defend their trans-New Testament human traditions instead.

Why is that?
