I Corinthians 14- Encouragement and Edification

24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an ungifted man enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all;

The prophesy here I have found is referring to the role of the pastor/teacher in our day. They encourage, exhort others to good works, proclaim the Truth, share what God has been teaching them from the Word and correct behavior/thinking at times. God does not want confusion or disorganization to characterize the Church. He left us here to be a light in the darkness so He requires that we have a good report among believers and un-believers alike.
