1 Corinthians 14:22
For this reason tongues are for a sign, not to those who have faith, but to those who have not: but the prophet's word is for those who have faith, and not for the rest who have not.

1 Corinthians 14:22
For this reason tongues are for a sign, not to those who have faith, but to those who have not: but the prophet's word is for those who have faith, and not for the rest who have not.

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 14:5
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 14:9
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 14:13
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 14:18
I give praise to God that I am able to make use of tongues more than you all:
1 Corinthians 14:27
If any man makes use of a tongue, let it not be more than two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let someone give the sense:
-----
1 Corinthians 14:16
For if you give a blessing with the spirit, how will the man who has no knowledge say, So be it, after your prayer, seeing that he has not taken in what you are saying?
