Gen Z: 1 Corinthians 14
1Follow the vibes of love, and chase those spiritual gifts, but for real, prophesy is where it’s at.
2When you’re speaking in a language nobody gets, you’re not chatting with people, just God: no cap, it’s all mysteries in the spirit.
3But when you prophesy, you’re dropping wisdom for the squad, giving them hype and comfort.
4Speaking in a language nobody knows is a self-boost, but prophesying? That’s how you build up the whole crew.
5I wish everyone was out here speaking in tongues, but honestly, prophesying is way more goated: it’s a bigger deal unless you can break it down so the church can vibe with it.
6Yo, fam, if I roll up speaking in tongues, what’s the point unless I’m dropping knowledge or prophesying?
7Even lifeless things making noise, like pipes or harps, gotta have their own unique sound; otherwise, how do we even know what’s playing?
8If the trumpet’s making a confusing sound, who’s ready to throw down in battle?
9Same goes for you; if you’re not dropping easy-to-understand words, how’s anyone gonna know what’s being said? You’ll just be talking to the air.
10There’s a whole bunch of different voices in the world, and none of them are just random; they all mean something.
11So if I can't vibe with the voice, I'm just gonna sound like a total noob, and the speaker's gonna think I'm sus too.
12Y'all are super hyped about spiritual gifts, so just pop off and build up the church, fr.
13So, if you're speaking in a tongue no one gets, just pray for the rizz to interpret it.
14If I pray in a tongue I don’t get, my spirit's lit but my brain's like, "Nah, this ain't it."
15So what’s the deal? I’ll pray with my spirit and I’ll also keep it real with my understanding; I’ll sing with both, no cap.
16If you bless with your spirit, how's the clueless homie gonna say Amen when they have no clue what you're saying?
17For real, you give thanks like a champ, but the others ain't getting the vibes.
18I thank my God, I’m out here speaking in tongues more than all y’all combined, periodt.
19But in the church, I’d rather drop five words that make sense than ten thousand in a tongue nobody gets, fr.
20Fam, don’t be kids when it comes to understanding: be savage in malice but grown in understanding.
21The law's got it on lock: I'm gonna vibe with this crew in different languages, but no cap, they still won't hear me, says the Lord.
22So, tongues are like a sign, not for the believers but for the skeptics; but prophesying is for the believers, for real.
23If the whole squad rolls up together and everyone’s speaking in tongues, and some clueless peeps come in, they gonna think y’all are wildin’.
24But if everyone’s prophesying, and a non-believer or a newbie walks in, they’ll get shook and realize what’s up.
25That’s when the secrets of their heart pop off; they’ll hit the floor, worship God, and know for sure that God’s in the mix.
26So, fam, when you gather, everyone’s got a psalm, a teaching, a tongue, a revelation, or an interpretation. Let’s keep it lit and build each other up.
27If someone’s speaking in a tongue no one knows, let it be two or three at most, and they gotta take turns; and someone’s gotta interpret.
28But if there’s no interpreter, just chill in the church; talk to yourself and God instead.
29Let the prophets share two or three, and let the others judge what's being said.
30If something’s revealed to someone else sitting there, the first one needs to keep it low-key.
31Everyone can share their vibes one at a time so we all learn and feel comforted, fr.
32The prophets' spirits gotta chill with the prophets, no cap.
33God ain't about that confusion life; He’s all about peace, like in all the church fams.
34Ladies gotta keep it low-key in church, 'cause they’re not allowed to speak; they gotta stay obedient, periodt.
35If they wanna learn something, they should just ask their husbands at home; it’s sus for women to chat in church.
36Wait, did God’s word only drop from you guys, or is it just for you?
37If anyone thinks they’re a prophet or spiritual, they better recognize that what I’m saying are God’s rules.
38But if someone’s clueless, let them stay clueless.
39So, fam, go for prophesying and don’t stop the tongues from popping off.
40Keep everything on point and in order, that’s the vibe.
