For reasons of brevety I invite you to read the chapters I will provide you with, in its full length. But here are but a few key verses that should sommerize the answer to your request for biblical support. I also invite you to read the entire subject pertaining to the question on tongues and speaking in tongues here in this forum, for it would be to lengthy here to present you with an entire thesis on the matter. Might I remain available for further discussion if need be? Cause this is a long subject to answer, but here we go, brevety!!! The Biblical support to the confounding of the language, and then to abraham's being promissed adoptive children, and Paul's own ministry with the gentils. You can appreciate if I was to cover the entire gamet of these we would be here reading on for hours on end, hey... The confounding of the language at Babel Biblical Times: Gen 11:9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth. Where as before they all spoke one tongue, they now had different languages and nations, and family because it was the will of God: Gen 10:5 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations. Even with God having confonded langue, He still wanted us to know about Him and what he is all about and what he does for us: Isa 48:16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time, that it was, there am I and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me. Isa 48:17 Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. Isa 48:18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea. Isa 48:19 Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me. Isa 48:20 Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob. By faith Abraham brings forth numerous children: Heb 11:12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore, innumerable. Paul, the apostle, declared that his office was that of the office: Rom 11:13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as,am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office: And why hearing and understanding the teachings of God in our own language? Why would they speak the Word of God in our own language? Because: Act 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. |

Lilliesofthefield - One of the favorite expressions my mother was fond of using was this: "Let's not run this into the ground." It was her way of saying as a native of Alabama what the Lockman Foundation says to users of SBF: "Please limit to the best of your ability, the known denominational biases that produce potential strife and undue conflict. Please avoid interjecting obvious denominational biases, especially when urged by peers to cease. Otherwise, it becomes a battle of wills, and only tears down morale and causes division. If we are notified this situation is occurring, we will review it and act as necessary." ...... I've carefully reviewed your 21 posts to date, and all but about three of them are about speaking in tongues. You have been asked by your peers to cease, they having informed you that this subject has already been, in my mother's words, "run into the ground." ...... Yet, you persist to post on this divisive issue, leaving us no further remedy but to appeal to the owners of the Forum for relief from the situation your refusal to comply has put the Forum in. Should you therefore continue to resist the pleas of your fellow Forum users, the matter will be brought before Lockman and you may find yourself at risk of losing your privilege to post to SFB. We don't seek more dialogue with you on this subject, but we do respectfully ask a final time that you post on other subject or stop posting altogether. --Hank | ||||||
