1 Corinthians 14:2

Appropriate Use Of Prophecy And Tongues

¹ Pursue love and desire spiritual gifts, and above all that you may prophesy. ² For the person who speaks in another language is not speaking to men but to God, since no one understands him; however, he speaks mysteries in the Spirit. ³ But the person who prophesies speaks to people for edification, encouragement, and consolation.
