And account the long suffering of our Lord conducive to salvation; as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, hath written unto you; as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, of which some are difficult to be understood, which the uninstructed and the unstable torture, as indeed they do the rest of the scriptures unto their own destruction.

Now this word yet once more manifests the removal of the things shaken, as of things formed, that the things not shaken may endure.

of which I am a minister, according to the dispensation of God, which was given me for you to fulfil the ministry of the word of God??26 the mystery which was hid from ages and from generations, but is now unveiled to his saints; to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

And the Word became incarnate, and tabernacled with us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John bore witness concerning him, and cried, saying, This is he of whom I said, He that is coming after me, is before me: because before me he was. And from his plenitude we all have received, even grace corresponding with [his] grace. For the law was given by Moses, but the grace and the reality came by Jesus Christ.

Seeing therefore that the children have partaken of flesh and blood, he also himself, in exact resemblance, partook of the same, that by death he might destroy him who held the power of death, that is, the devil;

among whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dart its bright beams upon them.

who being in the form of God counted it no usurpation to claim equality with God:

But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

to another miraculous powers; to another prophecy; to another discernments of spirits; to another different kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: but all these things worketh that one and the same Spirit, distributing peculiar gifts to every one even as he wills.

SO when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with unanimity assembled together. And there came suddenly from heaven a sound as it were of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there was an appearance to them of divided tongues, as of fire, and it rested on every one of them.read more.
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves. Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem, Jews, men of piety, from every nation under heaven. And when this report spread, the multitude collected around them, and were overwhelmed with astonishment, because they heard them speaking every one in his own peculiar dialect. And they were all amazed, and wondered, saying one to another, Are not all these who are speaking Galileans? And how do we hear every man in our own peculiar dialect, in which from our birth we were brought up? Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and they who inhabit Mesopotamia, and Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus, and Asia, and Phrygia, and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the parts of Lybia adjoining Cyrene, and the sojourners, who are Romans, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking in our own several tongues the marvellous things of God. And they were all amazed, and much perplexed, and knew not what to think, saying one to another, What can this mean?

Having then different gifts according to the grace which is given unto us, if it be prophecy, speak according to the analogy of faith;

And these also hath God placed in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, next miracles, then gifts of healings, helpers, directors, different kinds of tongues. Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

Love never faileth: but if there be prophetic gifts, they shall be no more; if tongues, they shall cease; if science, it shall vanish away. For we know partially, and prophesy partially. But when that which is perfect cometh, then that which is in part shall be done away.read more.
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I thought as a child, I reasoned as a child: but when I grew a man, I put away childish things. For now we see by reflected light, indistinctly; but then face to face: now I know partially; but then shall I know even as I am known.

FOLLOW earnestly after love, and zealously seek spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue, speaketh not to men, but to God: for no man understandeth him; although in spirit he speaketh mysterious truths. But he that prophesieth, addresseth men for edification, and exhortation, and consolation.read more.
He that speaketh in an unknown tongue, edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church. Now I could wish that you all spake with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: for greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret also, that the church may receive edification. Now I, brethren, if I should come unto you, speaking in unknown languages, what should I profit you, unless I should speak to you [intelligibly] by revelation, or by science, or by prophecy, or by doctrine? In like manner things inanimate, giving sound, whether the pipe, or the harp, unless they express a distinction in their tones, how shall it be known what is piped, or what is harped? For if the trumpet also give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for the battle? So also ye, unless with the tongue you speak an intelligible discourse, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will speak to the air. For though there are so many different kinds of languages in the world, yet is not one of them without its meaning. If therefore I know not the force of the expression, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian unto me. So also ye, if ye zealously affect spiritual gifts, seek that ye may abound in them for the edification of the church. Therefore let him who speaketh in an unknown tongue, pray that he may interpret also. For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my mind produces no fruit. What then is my object? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms with the understanding also. Else, though thou bless God in spirit, how shall he who filleth the place of an illiterate man, say Amen after thy thanksgiving, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest? For thou indeed givest thanks to God well, but another man is not edified by it. I thank my God, that I speak with different tongues more than you all: but in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. Brethren, be not children in your minds: though in naughtiness be ye children, but in your minds be men complete. In the law it is written, "That with other tongues, and with other lips, will I speak to this people: and even thus will they not attend to me, saith the Lord." Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to those that believe, but to those who do not believe: but the gift of prophecy is not for those who are infidels, but for believers. If then the whole church assemble together in the same place, and all speak different tongues, and there come in illiterate persons, or infidels, will they not say ye are mad? But if all prophesy, and any infidel or illiterate person come in, he receives conviction from all, he is judged of all: and thus the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so falling down on his face, he will worship God, declaring that God verily is among you. How comes it then, brethren, that when ye assemble together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation? Let all things be done to edification. If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at most by three, and one after another; and let one interpret. But if there be not an interpreter, let him be silent in the church; but let him speak to himself and to God. Let the prophets two or three speak, and let the others judge. But if any thing should be revealed to one sitting by, let the first be silent. For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all be comforted. And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all the churches of his saints.

And he himself appointed, some indeed apostles, and some prophets; and others preachers of the Gospel; and others pastors and teachers;

Who is the image of the invisible God, the prime author of all creation: for by him were all things created, celestial and terrestrial, visible or invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers, all were created by him, and for him: and he is before all, and by him all things subsist.read more.
And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first begotten from the dead, that he might be in all things pre-eminent.

having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in himself; at the dispensation of the fulness of the appointed times to gather together under one head all things in Christ, whether they be things in heaven or things in earth, in him:

Now to him that is able to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, agreeable to the revelation of the mystery; which was concealed from all former ages, but is now made manifest, and by the prophetical scriptures, according to the commandment of the eternal God, notified to all the Gentiles to bring them to the obedience of faith: to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

but we speak the wisdom of God, which had been hid in mystery, which God predestined before the worlds were, for our glory: which none of the rulers of this world have known: for if they had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But, as it is written, "The things which eye hath not seen, and ear hath not heard, and that have not entered into the heart of man, these hath God prepared for those who love him."read more.
But to us hath God revealed them by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth out all things, even the depths of God.

that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery, as I wrote unto you before briefly; wherein when ye read, ye may be able to perceive my knowledge in the mystery of Christ, which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it hath been now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;read more.
that the Gentiles should be co-heirs, and of the same body, and sharers with them of his promise in Christ by the Gospel: of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which was given unto me by the effectual working of his power. To me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; and to make all men see what the communication of that mystery means, which was hid from the beginning in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: that now to the principalities and powers in the heavenly regions, the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church, according to the purpose from everlasting, which he formed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

For it hath pleased the Father that in him all fulness should dwell; and by him to reconcile all things to himself, making peace by the blood of his cross: by him, I say, whether they be things on earth, or things in the heavens.
