1 | Should we ask God for the gift of tongue | 1 Cor 12:11 | Jesified | 111665 | ||
I'm not trying to start an argument, but where does it say that Satan speaks gibberish? I can recall 3 times that Satan has spoken: 1. to Eve in Genesis 2. to God in Job 3. to Jesus in the desert In all of those instances, Satan was understood. And think about it, if Satan's main goal is to get Christians off track, don't you think he'd use a language we can understand? If you say "Hey, look out!!" in French or German, I don't have a clue what you're saying and I'd just be confused and look at you...then probably get hit by the car you attempted to warn me about. But if you said it in English (or a language I understand) then I might move. Also, tongues does not have to be in a known language. I used Strongs Exhaustive concordance to see exactly what Mark 16:17 meant by NEW tongues. It means just that: new. Now that may be new to the speaker ie, average Joe unilingual Christian speaking Cantoneese or it could be new as in brand new, never before heard. Besides, there are so many different languages now, not to mention dead languages, and what about undiscovered cultures, how do you know you're not speaking their language? The point is the Bible isn't specific on that. And as I said, I don't want to argue because when fisherman aren't fishing, they're fighting and personally I'd rather be fishing if you know what I mean. I was just curious as to what you were using as your scriptural basis. God Bless, Jesified |

When a Satanist went to a church were may spoke in tongues, he asked his friend, a member of the church, who brought him ... why they were copying what his "church" was doing. There are people who do speak a known language to at least one of the listeners, but he never went to school or practiced it. |

But of course, that doesn't answer Jesified's question. | ||||||
