    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,947 views

    The apostolic command to be filled with the Spirit is a corporate responsibility of each congregation, and not simply an individual command. Paul instructs the churches what Spirit-filled worship looks like in this text.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,883 views
