For what we know is incomplete and what we prophesy is incomplete.

Keep on pursuing love, and keep on desiring spiritual gifts, especially the ability to prophesy.

Now I wish that all of you could speak in foreign languages, but especially that you could prophesy. The person who prophesies is more important than the person who speaks in a foreign language, unless he interprets it so that the church may be built up.

For everyone can prophesy in turn, so that everyone can be instructed and everyone can be encouraged.

Therefore, my brothers, desire the ability to prophesy, and do not prevent others from speaking in foreign languages.
