Title: Order in the Worship Service!
Text: 1 Corinthians 11:1-16
Author: Marvin Patterson
Introduction: Paul is dealing with the problems of the Church at Corinth. They had a ton
of them and he is taking them one by one! He is beginning to deal with the worship
service, and here he starts to distinguish the roles of God the Father, God the Son, and the
husband and the wife! He is not exalting the Father at the expense of the Son, nor is he
exalting the husband at the expense of the wife! They are all important to God, and He
loves you regardless of whether you are married, single, make or female! You are special
to God!
In the hospital, the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where a family
member lay gravely ill. Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and sombre.
"I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news" he said as he surveyed the worried
faces.
"The only hope left for your loved one at this time is a brain transplant.
It's an experimental procedure, quite risky, and you'll have to pay for the brain
yourselves."
The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. At length,
someone asked, "Well, how much does a brain cost?"
The doctor quickly responded, "A female brain goes for $20,000. A male
brain costs $50,000."
The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding
eye contact with the women, but some actually smirked.
A girl, unable to control her curiosity, blurted out the question everyone
wanted to ask, "Why does the male brain cost so much more?"
The doctor smiled at her childish innocence and then said to the entire group,
"It's a standard pricing procedure. We mark the female brains down because
they're used."
