No one can lay a foundation that is already laid. (1 Corinthians 3:11) The gospel message has been given, the mystery has been revealed. (Colossians 1:26) You are not the first spreading the gospel, during the laying of the foundation times. God is not testifying to what you are saying with sight to the blind, the paralyzed walking, and the raising of the dead. (Acts 14:3, 8, 9, 10) Tongues were a sign to the Jews, as prophesied about in the Old Testament. (1 Corinthians 14:21-22) Tongues were a sign that Gentiles were included, (Acts 11:1, 2, 3, 9, 15, 16, 17, 18) when for many years they were excluded from God and called "unclean". (Ephesians 2:12) The sign to the Jews has been given. Paul even tells those who speak in tongues that is fruitless to do so, even for the speaker himself, if he, or no one else understands what he is saying. (1 Corinthians 14:13, 14, 15, 28). Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. (1 Corinthians 13:8).
