1 Corinthians 14:3
But the word of the prophet gives men knowledge and comfort and strength.

--------------------

1 Corinthians 14:1
Go after love; still desiring to have the things which the Spirit gives, but most of all that you may have the prophet's power.

1 Corinthians 14:2
For he who makes use of tongues is not talking to men but to God; because no one has the sense of what he is saying; but in the Spirit he is talking of secret things.

1 Corinthians 14:3
But the word of the prophet gives men knowledge and comfort and strength.

1 Corinthians 14:4
He who makes use of tongues may do good to himself; but he who gives the prophet's word does good to the church.

1 Corinthians 14:5
Now though it is my desire for you all to have the power of tongues, it would give me more pleasure to be hearing the prophet's word from you; for this is a greater thing than using tongues, if the sense is not given at the same time, for the good of the church.

1 Corinthians 14:24
But if all are teaching as prophets, and a man without faith or knowledge comes in, he is tested by all, he is judged by all;

1 Corinthians 14:25
The secrets of his heart are made clear; and he will go down on his face and give worship to God, saying that God is truly among you.

1 Corinthians 14:39
So then, my brothers, let it be your chief desire to be prophets; but let no one be stopped from using tongues.

1 Corinthians 14:40
Let all things be done in the right and ordered way.

1 Corinthians 12:10
And to another the power of working wonders; and to another the prophet's word; and to another the power of testing spirits; to another different sorts of tongues; and to another the power of making clear the sense of the tongues:

1 Corinthians 13:2
And if I have a prophet's power, and have knowledge of all secret things; and if I have all faith, by which mountains may be moved from their place, but have not love, I am nothing.

1 Corinthians 13:9
For our knowledge is only in part, and the prophet's word gives only a part of what is true:

1 Corinthians 14:32
And the spirits of the prophets are controlled by the prophets;

Acts 2:4
And they were all full of the Holy Spirit, and were talking in different languages, as the Spirit gave them power.

Acts 19:6
And when Paul had put his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they had the power of talking in tongues, and acting like prophets.

1 Corinthians 12:31
But let your desires be turned to the more important things given by the Spirit. And now I am pointing out to you an even better way.

-----

1 Corinthians 14:31
For you may all be prophets in turn so that all may get knowledge and comfort;

1 Thessalonians 5:20
Do not make little of the words of the prophets;

1 Corinthians 14:6
But, now, my brothers, if I come to you using tongues, what profit will it be to you, if I do not give you a revelation, or knowledge, or the word of the prophet, or teaching?

1 Corinthians 14:7
Even things without life, having a voice, such as a music-pipe or other instrument, if they do not give out different sounds, who may be certain what is being played?

1 Corinthians 14:8
For if the war-horn gives out an uncertain note, who will get ready for the fight?

1 Corinthians 14:9
So if you, in using a strange tongue, say words which have no sense, how will anyone take in what you are saying? for you will be talking to the air.

1 Corinthians 14:10
There are, it may be, a number of different voices in the world, and no voice is without sense.

1 Corinthians 14:11
But if the sense of the voice is not clear to me, I am like a man from a strange country to him who is talking, and he will be the same to me.

1 Corinthians 14:12
So if you are desiring the things which the Spirit gives, let your minds be turned first to the things which are for the good of the church.

1 Corinthians 14:13
For this reason, let the man who has the power of using tongues make request that he may, at the same time, be able to give the sense.

1 Corinthians 14:26
What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.

1 Corinthians 14:18
I give praise to God that I am able to make use of tongues more than you all:

1 Corinthians 14:19
But in the church it would be better for me to make use of five words of which the sense was clear, so that others might have profit, than ten thousand words in a strange tongue.

1 Corinthians 14:29
And let the prophets give their words, but not more than two or three, and let the others be judges of what they say.

1 Corinthians 14:35
And if they have a desire for knowledge about anything, let them put questions to their husbands privately: for talking in the church puts shame on a woman.

Let no evil talk come out of your mouth, but only what is good for giving necessary teaching, and for grace to those who give ear.

1 Corinthians 10:23
We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

1 Timothy 1:4
Or to give attention to stories and long lists of generations, from which come questionings and doubts, in place of God's ordered way of life which is in faith;

1 Corinthians 3:9
For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.

2 Corinthians 12:19
It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.
