Spiritual Gifts.

By R. F. Cottrell

“Pursue after love; and desire earnestly the spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.” 1 Cor. 14:1.—Am. Bible Union.
Was the epistle to the Corinthians written exclusively for the benefit of those then living at Corinth, or was it designed for the instruction of the church in general throughout the dispensation?
If it is not too late now to follow after love, by what rule is it too late to desire earnestly the spiritual gifts?
Has God taught us to desire earnestly that which he has determined in no case to grant us?
R. F. COTTRELL.
