2 | define speaking in tongues. | 1 Corinthians | ralphie | 46160 | ||
The God who baptized with the Spirit at Pentecost is doing it yet today. Study 1 Cor 12-14 and ask God to show you the truth. When the gift of tongues and interpreting tongues are exercised as the Spirit wills, the Church is edified. Vs 8 does say that tongues will cease. Amen! So will knowledge and prophecy. | ||||||

Hi ralphie. Thank you for those references; I found the truth. 1Corinthians 13:4, "Love is patient, love is kind, and is not jealous; love does not bag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, v.6, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; v.7, bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things." Paul does not forbid the speaking of tongues, saying that he speaks in tongues even more than they do. But it has to be interpretted to be of any value. Paul would rather speak five words of the mind's spirit than ten thousand words in a tongue that do not lead to edification. But we have to realize that the spirit that we receive in our minds, also, just like the tongues, is not from ourselves. 1 Corinthians 14:36, NKJ, "Or did the word of God come [originally] from you? Or [was] it you only that it reached?" My Interlinear copy has the "Word" capitalized but I do not think that the verse is talking about Christ Himself. The Word Himself did not come from any man for He was the Son of God. Just so the word of God the Holy Bible did not come from man but was God-breathed. If we are, if I were, "speaking in tongues" right now, here is my interpretation then of Acts 2:4. "And they were filled with the *holy *spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit [sic] *was giving them utterance." Verse 11, "Cretan and Arabs--we hear them in our own tongues speaking of the mighty deeds of God." The words of the tongues-speaker are the word of God and not from themselves. They are to bring glory to God alone. The gift of tongues is not something that is required for salvation nor something to be acquired with pride. It is just that, a gift from God. But the truth is, we should desire first the righteousness and love that comes from God. 1 Corinthians 13:6 This love is a still more excellent way. From the heart, Ray |
