The foundation point for us as Christians in loving our neighbors is the understanding that every person is precious to God, regardless of age, ethnicity, gender, nationality, economic status, religious belief, political affiliation, or any other difference. God loves everyone.

In the first section of 1 Corinthians 14, Paul emphasized that the pursuit of spiritual gifts should be for the building up of the church and edification of the believers, and that worship gatherings should be conducted in a way that these will serve as a witness to non-believers. Paul continues to address these themes in this final section of the chapter.

The kingdom of God was a central theme of Jesus’ teachings throughout the Gospels. For those who put their trust in God and enter into a relationship with Him through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus, the kingdom of God becomes a present reality.
