18I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 19Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.

Why did Paul thank God he spoke in tongues more than they all? Was he walking in pride? Trying to put others down?
On the contrary it would seem he is trying to
ENCOURAGE THEM to speak in tongues more than they were.
If he spoke in tongues more than they all and it was
NOT IN THE CHURCH where was it?
Obviously in his private prayer time.
It seems either he was boasting or using himself as an example that the believer should take advantage of the benefit of praying in tongues. And if they all could
NOT pray in tongues it would
SEEM indeed he was boasting.
