1 | Where in Acts does it say that? | Acts 1:1 | mitchm0521 | 167965 | ||
What does 1 Cor 14 mean when Paul says I will pray with the spirit, and he says that when he prays in an unknown tongue his spirit prays? And in Acts, how were they speaking in another tongue in order to share the Gospel, It does not say that when Peter preached he was speaking in another tongue, if they spoke in tongues in order to share the Gospel, how did so many understand Peter, and come to repentence? Did he speak in all those differnt languages at once. Here is something you can study out for yourself, I have leanred through certain history texts, that at that time, every Jew spoke at least two languages, Aramaic, and the language of their country, such as Egypt, Asia, etc. So they didn't need the tongues, in order to preach. God Bless, Mitch |

Hi Mitch, The disciples speaking Hebrew, which was the language of the Jews at that time (I can give you more info on that in a different thread. The Bible is pretty clear about that, as well as other sources.) would not have gathered the croud. The disciples speaking all the languages represented did, as they proclaimed the wonderful works of God. This is different than praying to God, in a heavenly tongue, that requires the gift of interpretation to be understood. In 1 Cor 14, Paul is contrasting praying spiritually, and praying intellectually. Both have their places. Love in Christ, Mark |

Could the noise as of a rushing mighty wind gather the crowd? I understand the tongues could have gathered the crowd, but if it was the tongues that were used in order to teach them, did Peter still speak in all those different tongues at once in order to preach? Or was he preaching in whatever language was natural to him? | ||||||

Hi Mitch, I don't really know what language Peter preached in, if I were to guess, I'd say Hebrew. I think the languages were used to draw the crowd. That was what the response of the crowd indicated. I'm sorry, but I will be off line til Tuesday, so we'll have to finish then, if there is anything still to finish. thank you for some good discussion! Love in Christ, Mark |
