1 Cor. 14:5,12,17,19,22‑26• 5But I desire that ye all should speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy. And greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, in order that the assembly may receive edification.
 12So also ye, since ye are zealous after spirits, seek that ye may abound for the edification of the assembly.
 17For thou givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
 19but in an assembly I desire to speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue.
 22Wherefore the tongues are for a sign, not to those that believe, but to the unfaithful, while prophecy [is] not to the unfaithful but to those that believe.
 23If therefore the whole assembly come unto the same [place], and all speak with tongues, and there come in private or unfaithful [persons], will they not say that ye are mad?
 24But if all prophesy, and some unfaithful or private one come in, he is convinced by all, he is examined by all:
 25the secrets of his heart become manifest; and thus, falling on [his] face, he will do homage to God, reporting that God is indeed among you.
 26What is it then, brethren? Whenever ye come together, each of you hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edification. (1 Cor. 14:5,12,17,19,22‑26)

Matt. 25:14‑30• 14For [it is] as [if] a man going abroad, called his own bondmen and delivered to them his goods.
 15And to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his several ability, and went his way.
 16Straightway he that received the five talents proceeded, and traded with them, and made other five talents.
 17Likewise also he [that received] the two, and he gained other two.
 18But he that received the one went off, and dug in the earth, and hid the money of his lord.
 19After a long time the lord of those bondmen cometh and settleth account with them.
 20And he that received the five talents came forward and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst to me five talents: behold, I gained five other talents [besides them].
 21His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many: enter into the joy of thy lord.
 22And he also that [received] the two talents said, Lord, two talents thou deliveredst to me: behold, I gained other two talents.
 23His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many: enter into the joy of thy lord.
 24And he also that had received the one talent came forward and said, Lord, I knew thee, that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow, and gathering whence thou didst not scatter;
 25and being afraid I went off, and hid thy talent in the earth; behold, thou hast that which is thine.
 26But his lord answering said to him, Wicked and slothful bondman, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather whence I scattered not.
 27Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have got mine own with interest.
 28Take away therefore the talent from him, and give [it] to him that hath the ten talents.
 29For to everyone that hath shall be given, and he shall be in abundance; but from him that hath not, even what he hath shall be taken away [from him].
 30And cast out the useless bondman into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping, and the gnashing of teeth. (Matt. 25:14‑30)

Rom. 12:6‑8• 6But having gifts different according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of faith;
 7or service, [let us be occupied] in service; or he that teacheth, in teaching;
 8or he that exhorteth, in exhortation; he that bestoweth, with simplicity; he that presideth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness. (Rom. 12:6‑8)

Eph. 4:7‑12• 7But to each one of us was given grace according to the measure of the gift of the Christ.
 8Wherefore he saith, Having ascended on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts to men.
 9Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower [parts] of the earth?
 10He that descended, he it is also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.
 11And he gave some apostles, and some prophets, and some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
 12for the perfecting of the saints, unto work of ministry, unto edifying of the body of the Christ, (Eph. 4:7‑12)
;
1 Peter 4:10‑11• 10according as each received a gift, ministering it toward each other as good stewards of God's various grace:
 11if one speak, [let it be] as oracles of God; if one ministereth, as of strength which God supplieth; that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the might unto the ages of the ages. Amen. (1 Peter 4:10‑11)
• Here it is simply power, and men are told in certain cases to be silent, when the power was there; it was the Holy Spirit working as power. In Ephesians 4 it is Christ’s care as Head of the body. No gifts which are signs of power to others are mentioned; only what founds the assembly, edifies the saints, and builds the assembly up. (“1 Corinthians 12” by J.N. Darby)
• Here the Apostle is treating strictly of the church: to each within it is the manifestation of the Spirit given, and that with a view to the common good, not for personal influence or display. (“Notes on 1 Corinthians 12:7-13” by W. Kelly)
