1 Corinthians 14:38, "recognized"

1 Corinthians 14:38

38But if anyone does not recognize this, he is not recognized.

I am not quite sure of the meaning of this. In the Greek the word "recognize" means, 1) to be ignorant, not to know 2) not to understand, unknown 3) to err or sin through mistake, to be wrong.

- How do the tenses affect the meaning? If it is a play on words which is something Paul does at times, then the NASB translation may be translated well. And the meaning would be that if anyone does not recognize these things to be true, let them not be recognized in the assemble and allowed to speak or let them not be recognized as a prophet, or spiritual, or as an authority on the scriptures and doctrine. This would have wide implications on the church, today, as many in authority do not recognize these scriptures.
