But i cant explain this scripture according to my Pentecostal doctrine.

1 Corinthians 14:20
20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.

For what reason does the writer take pause, in this scripture? A pause to make an appeal that "these brethren"(the corinthians) conduct themselves as men and not get mad at Paul.

Its almost as if he thinks what he is about to say, will anger them...so he appeals to them to not be as chidren.



Why is Paul , afraid they will be angry?
