1 | When will I speak/pray in tongues? | Acts 2:6 | wdc | 28275 | ||
Dear fellow believers, I have just finished reading all the post on this subject in this thread. The one thing that stuck out to me above all, and there were good arguements both ways, is that those that argue for tongues had no scripture in context to back them up, only experience, and when asked for specfic answers and verses, avoided the question. Those that posted oppositions to the practice of speaking in tongues as we see it today used scripture and scripture only for their defense. When they were asked a question, they gave scripture. THAT SAYS A LOT TO ME. My thoughts on this? I'm glad you asked. Paul specifically says that everyone does not have and will not receive the gift of tongues. And if Jesus had intended that speaking in tongues be the evidence of the baptism/filling of the Holy Spirit, He would have said so. And He didn't. I understand the evidence of the baptism/filling of the Holy Spirit to be Acts 1:8 "and you shall be witnesses to Me..." Further scripture, John 16:13-14 (John 16:13) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. (John 16:14) He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. The Holy Spirit only glorifies Jesus, the Holy Spirit, as best as I can understand, will never lead someone to seek Him or what He can do, but will lead us to Jesus, help us to seek and know Jesus. I am setting here trembling inside as I type this, because I feel so unequal to many of you. After reading your postings, I am in awe of your wisdom and knowledge of scripture. But I felt I needed to share my observations and maybe help someone like me. In Christ. later...wdc |
