Verse 10:
1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
There it is again, we should all have the same mind. We should be all speaking the same things. But just what is it we're supposed to speak?
Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
We are to speak to each other teaching an admonishing words. Singing of the mighty works of God.
1 Timothy 4:6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.
We should be reminding each other. Nourish someone's faith. This is a good ministry.
Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
Finally we are warned not to let evil, corrupt speech come from us. We are to be ministers of encouragement.
Heavenly Father, help us to build up our brothers and sisters. Keep us mindful of the thing we say. In Jesus name, amen.
