One of these prophets was named Agabus. In Antioch, Agabus stood up and spoke. With the help of the Holy Spirit {\cf2\super [230]} he said, “A very bad time is coming to the whole world. There will be no food for people to eat.” (This time without food happened when Claudius was emperor. {\cf2\super [231]})
The Spirit gives to another person the power to do miracles, {\cf2\super [84]} to another person the ability to prophesy, {\cf2\super [85]} to another person the ability to know the difference between good and evil spirits. The Spirit gives one person the ability to speak in different kinds of languages, and to another person the ability to interpret those languages.
And in the church God has given a place first to apostles, {\cf2\super [89]} second to prophets, {\cf2\super [90]} and third to teachers. Then God has given a place to those people that do miracles, {\cf2\super [91]} those people that have gifts of healing, those people that can help others, those people that are able to lead, and those people that can speak in different kinds of languages.
