Now about the gifts of the Spirit, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be uninformed.

Brothers and sisters, I want you to know about the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed.

Now, dear brothers and sisters, regarding your question about the special abilities the Spirit gives us. I don’t want you to misunderstand this.

Now concerning spiritual gifts: brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be unaware.

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be unaware.

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant:

Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

Now concerning what comes from the Spirit: brothers, I do not want you to be unaware.

Now concerning spiritual[ gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don’t want you to be ignorant.

Now there are different gifts, but the same Spirit.And there are different ministries, but the same Lord.And there are different results, but the same God who produces all of them in everyone.To each person the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the benefit of all.For one person is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, and another the message of knowledge according to the same Spirit,to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,to another performance of miracles, to another prophecy, and to another discernment of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues.It is one and the same Spirit, distributing as he decides to each person, who produces all these things.

If anyone considers himself a prophet or spiritual person, he should acknowledge that what I write to you is the Lord’s command.

Pursue love and be eager for the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.For the one speaking in a tongue does not speak to people but to God, for no one understands; he is speaking mysteries by the Spirit.But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouragement, and consolation.The one who speaks in a tongue builds himself up, but the one who prophesies builds up the church.I wish you all spoke in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be strengthened.Now, brothers and sisters, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I help you unless I speak to you with a revelation or with knowledge or prophecy or teaching?It is similar for lifeless things that make a sound, like a flute or harp. Unless they make a distinction in the notes, how can what is played on the flute or harp be understood?If, for example, the trumpet makes an unclear sound, who will get ready for battle?It is the same for you. If you do not speak clearly with your tongue, how will anyone know what is being said? For you will be speaking into the air.There are probably many kinds of languages in the world, and none is without meaning.If then I do not know the meaning of a language, I will be a foreigner to the speaker and the speaker a foreigner to me.It is the same with you. Since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, seek to abound in order to strengthen the church.So then, one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.If I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unproductive.What should I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing praises with my spirit, but I will also sing praises with my mind.Otherwise, if you are praising God with your spirit, how can someone without the gift say“ Amen” to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?For you are certainly giving thanks well, but the other person is not strengthened.I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you,

Now we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve like the rest who have no hope.

It was he who gave some as apostles, some as prophets, some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,

For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, regarding the affliction that happened to us in the province of Asia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of living.

Now, dear friends, do not let this one thing escape your notice, that a single day is like a thousand years with the Lord and a thousand years are like a single day.

For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea,
