what

In
the

it is

With

lips
will I
speak
unto
this
people

yet for
all
that will
they
not
hear
me

the

strkjv@1Corinthians:14:22
@
Wherefore
tongues
are
for
a
sign

not

to them that believe
not

prophesying
serveth
not
for them that believe
not

believe

there come

unlearned

they
not

that
ye are
mad

if

prophesy

there come

one

unlearned

convinced

all

judged
of
all

strkjv@1Corinthians:14:25
@
And
thus
are
the
secrets
of
his
heart
made
manifest
;

so
falling
down
on
his
face
he will
worship
God
, and
report
that
God
is
in
you
of a
truth
