1 | Receive Holy Spirit and NOT speak tongue | Acts 2:38 | godsavs | 185143 | ||
Does the reference found in Acts 2:4 stating that after they received the Holy Spirit they spoke in tongues mean to us that "if we do not speak in tongues we indeed do NOT and have NOT received the gift of the holy spirit? Acts 2:4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. |

2 | Receive Holy Spirit and NOT speak tongue | Acts 2:38 | Searcher56 | 185144 | ||
God's day to you, godsavs, Acts 2:4 says they were filled with the Holy Spirit ... nothing about receiving gift of the Holy Spirit, which we see in verse 38. I pointed out in post 116386 that receiving gift (singular) of the Holy Spirit is not about speaking in tongues ... and it is one of the many gifts (plural) He gives. Enter 116386 under search to read the entire post. Searcher |

Dear godsaves, You'd also need to reconcile Acts 2:4 - which is a narrative- with the rest of the NT. Of the passage, ask yourself, "Is it, prescriptive or descriptive?" Consider 1 Cor. 12:30: "All do not have gifts of healings, do they? All do not speak with tongues, do they? All do not interpret, do they?" 1 Cor. 12:13: "For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit." Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |
