1 | Should we ask God for the gift of tongue | 1 Cor 12:11 | Searcher56 | 111620 | ||
I agree with Kalos ... and note that only twice in Acts do we see the new believers speak in tongues (read my post to prayon). Note that tongues is always a known language ... Satan speaks in gibberish. | ||||||
2 | Should we ask God for the gift of tongue | 1 Cor 12:11 | Rowdy | 111625 | ||
I have to agree wit Kalos and Searcher. Nowhere in the Bible do we have an example of the gift of the Holy Spirit to include any miraculous powers other than through the laying of hands of the Apostles. As a matter fact, there are examples of people like Simon the Sorcerer who wanted to buy those kind of powers and was harshly criticized for it. The main reason for the miraculous powers such as speaking in tongues was to confirm the word as being from God Almighty. Since we have the Word of God and know it to be His, there's no need for these kind of miracles to be directly relayed by humans. Instead the few miracles in the world come directly from God or possibly the Devil. There are scriptures to support these statements but I think they've been posted to the Forum in the past, which can be recalled by use of the Search Engine. God bless. |
