1 | No speaking in tongues, no Holy Spirit? | Acts 2:4 | Searcher56 | 10376 | ||
Debbie, yes, without love for God and others we are nothing and breaking the greastes commandment. Tongues is a minor issue. I believe the gift on tongues is speaking in a known language without training (Acts 2:4-13). It has happened today. Satan has copied this gift. 1 Cor 14 says prophecy is better and tongues is a sign for unbelievers, so they can hear the Word in their own language ... if I connect the Pentecost passage right. In order for someone to interpret, they need to be trained and know the tongue being spoken. What language do the angels speak to men? How do we know what language they speak to God and each other? Of all the salvation accounts in the book of Acts, only twice did the new believers speak in tongues - the first Gentile (10:46) and the disciples of John (19:6), so it was not usual, as you (or your denomination) believe. No one has all the gifts, but we all have at least one. If we all chose to exercise our eye gift, we would be in trouble. Did the disciples receive the Holy Spirit before the ascension or at Pentecost? In John 20:22 Jesus breathes on the disciples and indicates that he is granting them the Holy Spirit, which fulfills a promise repeatedly made in John 14-16.

I think that you have well answered to that point of view. As you I think and know that her theology of gifts of the Holy Spirit is not sound. Thank God for your intervention. | ||||||
