I wish you all to speak with tongues, but rather that you should prophesy; and he that prophesies is greater than he that speaks with tongues, unless he interprets, that the assembly may receive edification.

If, therefore, the whole church comes together, and all speak with tongues, and there come in the unlearned and unbelieving, will they not say that you are mad?

He that speaks with a tongue edifies himself; but he that prophesies edifies an assembly.

So also you, since you are earnestly desirous of spirits [spiritual gifts], seek to abound for the edification of the church.
