28 In the church, God has appointed first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, the ability to help others, leadership skills, different kinds of tongues.
29 All aren’t apostles, are they? All aren’t prophets, are they? All aren’t teachers, are they? All don’t perform miracles, do they?
30 All don’t have gifts of healing, do they? All don’t speak in different tongues, do they? All don’t interpret, do they?
31 Use your ambition to try to get the greater gifts. And I’m going to show you an even better way.
