1 | Have you spoke in tongues? | 1 Corinthians | rrherzog | 116976 | ||
Same question can be asked about salvation. How can you be sure that you are saved? Because the Word of God say's you are if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord. Same with speaking in tongues. The Word tells us that we can pray in the understanding or we can pray in the spirit. It also say's 1 Cor. 14:2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. So you see we do not always know what we say when we pray. And before we say that tongues is just a foreign language, lets not forget that the scripture say's that no man understands him because he speaks not to man, but to God. So this cannot be speaking in a natural tongue as some would say. What purpose would it do for me to pray to God in another lanquage such as Spanish when I speak in English? Everything we receive from God is by faith, from salvation to tongues to healing. It is all in the Bible, and the same gifts that God gave the apostles of that time He gives to us, or else He would be a respector of man, and He is not. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. Remember the Apostle Paul said himself, 1 Cor. 14:18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: God Bless, Your Brother in Christ |

rrherzog, What about 1 Cor. 12:29-30? Do ALL speak with tongues? No. Also, 1 Cor. 14:18 without the entire context, specifically verse 1, can mean only what you say it does. Is Paul really giving a plea, or command that we ALL should do likewise? Context is extremely important in interpreting scripture! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
