“Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.” (I Corinthians 14:1-4)
Dear all,
We have seen in most of those who have been baptized in the Holy Spirit a great concern to speak in tongue, which is of course, is very important because you are edifying your spiritual life and glorifying God. But, how many people are you helping when you speak in tongue? None, but yourself only.
Paul stated clearly that he who prophecies exhorts the church. Prophecy is to talk, preach, teach, evangelize, correct and above all is to lead people to salvation. This proves that he who is baptized in the Holy Spirit first priority to save souls and help others, instead of thinking about edifying his own life. This is the main characteristic of a person baptized in the Holy Spirit. To win souls!
