1 Corinthians14:18

18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more then you all .

Our Saviour, in the Parable of the good Shepherd, gives us this as his Character, That the sheep hear his voice, and follow him; and we shall observe this great Apostle every where propounding himself for imitation to them. They are bad Shepherds over Gods Flock, that must only be heard, but not followed. The Apostle lets them know, That God had not left him without the gift of speaking with divers Tongues, nay, he had it in a more eminent manner than they all, put them all together, they could not speak with so many Tongues as he did.
