Not really. You say that you think "all can prophesy" means. . . But you don't provide anything that really explains how you conclude that anything actually says that all (meaning the whole assembly) can prophesy.
OK. So you simply accept that Lee was correct to suggest that this one sentence following a detailed discussion about 2 or 3 prophesying (and effectively in the same paragraph) means everyone? It mocks the purpose of the 2 or 3.
But, it is more enjoyable. And I guess that is better than sound teaching and in order. And if it takes strong leadership, then it is not quite true that all can prophesy because the strong leadership can sit you down.
I'm just pushing a button to see if anyone is catching what is screaming at me. The context of "all" is 2 or 3 speaking in order. If one suddenly has something important, the one already speaking should sit down first then the other start. But in the end, they all can prophesy. But it is in a context. 2 or 3.
I honestly think that to conclude that Paul pulled another ADHD "squirrel" and jumped from 2 or 3 to the whole assembly without any warning is highly unlikely. Just like he didn't do it in 1 Cor 15:45. If there is an obvious reading, it would seem to be that "all" refers to the 2 or 3 and that any other reading needs more than "that's the way I read it." That is essentially what Nee and Lee did.
