14:15-17 It is preferable both to worship in the spirit and to use words I understand in worship and ministry because public worship should always bless both God and others. Speaking in tongues without interpretation, though it gives glory to God and edification to the speaker (14:4), fails to benefit others who are present. • praise God along with you (literally say “amen” to your thanksgiving): Amen was the traditional congregational response to a prayer.
