Translation

Not all have gracious gifts of healing? Not all speak in tongues? Not all Interpret?

Paraphrase

Not all have gracious gifts of healing, do they? Not all speak in tongues, do they? Not all interpret, do they?

Not Everyone Receives the Same Spiritual Gift

If anyone says that everyone should speak in tongues similar to what they do, such a person is violating the principle that not everyone receives the same spiritual gift.

We Should Ask Ourselves:

Do I seek personal gain or to make others better?

Do I crave being in the spotlight?

Are my attitudes and actions enhancing unity or fomenting division?

When I help others, do I really “take hold of” the situation, or do I do the bare minimum?
