Sermon: (Part 4) Love Must Guide Our Worship
Summary: We must see 1 Corinthians 13 in the broader context of Paul's correction of division in the worship assemblies at Corinth.  Paul makes clear that love must guide our actions toward one another in our worship to God.  Spiritual gifts will cease.  Worship services will end.  And what remains?  Did we love each other?  There is nothing more counter to the Spirit of God than to be divided over worship.  Worshipping in a spirit of love for one another immerses us in the very presence of the One who is Himself love.
