1 Corinthians 12:30-31
J.B. Phillips New Testament
29-30 As we look at the body of Christ do we find all are his messengers, all are preachers, or all teachers? Do we find all wielders of spiritual power, all able to heal, all able to speak with tongues, or all able to interpret the tongues? No, we find God’s distribution of gifts is on the same principles of harmony that he has shown in the human body.
31 You should set your hearts on the highest spiritual gifts, but I will show you what is the highest way of all.
