With regard to spiritual gifts, brothers and sisters, I do not want you to be uninformed.

Pursue love and be eager for the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

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