Pursue Love
Pursue love and desire spiritual gifts, and
especially that you may prophesy.
For the person who speaks in a tongue is
not speaking to people but to God,
since no one understands him;
he speaks mysteries in the Spirit.
On the other hand, the person who prophesies
speaks to people for their strengthening,
encouragement, and consolation.
The person who speaks in a tongue builds himself up,
but the one who prophesies builds up the church.
I wish all of you spoke in tongues,
but even more that you prophesied.
The person who prophesies is greater than
the person who speaks in tongues,
unless he interprets so that the church may be built up.
1 Corinthians 14:1-5 (CSB)
