Thematic Bible
Edification » Is the object of » Ministerial gifts
So also you, since you are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek to abound for the edification of the church.
But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation. One who speaks in a tongue edifies himself; but one who prophesies edifies the church. Now I wish that you all spoke in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy; and greater is one who prophesies than one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may receive edifying.
