1 | IS TONGUES FOR TODAY? | 1 Cor 14:5 | Aspilos | 55295 | ||
First of all, understand that what I had written was, "the bad thing about teaching that tongues is the evidence of the Holy Ghost", and not the bad thing about teaching about speaking in tongues. I am not attacking speaking in tongues, but rather, teaching that it is the evidence of the Holy Ghost, for that is not true. | ||||||
2 | IS TONGUES FOR TODAY? | 1 Cor 14:5 | inmyheart | 55346 | ||
Thank you for your response, however, will you give your view as I requested? What is the good thing of speaking in tongues, forget the bad thing. Yes, I know you're not attacking speaking in tongues. God bless |

inmyheart, in response to you question, "What is the good thing of speaking in tongues, forget the bad thing?", there is no, "bad thing" about any of the gifts of God. This gift, just as any other, serves a purpose and that purpose is explained in 1 Corinthians 14:22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. We see the good thing about speaking in tongues on the day of Pentecost. Although there were devout Jews present, they were not believers in the Lord Jesus. When the believers spoke in tongues, the unbelievers heard and this was a sign to them, even though many did not believe as was also prophesied. |

Aspilos, Once again, thank you for your prompt reply. I agree with you concerning the day of Pentecost, that there were devout unbelieving Jews. What would be the difference in this present day. There are many unbelievers, Jews and Gentile's, so wouldn't tongues be for a sign today? Once again, taking the gospel to the lost so they may have a relationship with God through our Lord and Savior, Jesus, is the only requirement for salvation. God bless you, talk to you tomorrow, I'm in the middle of a study. Be a blessing! |

I believe it is very possible that tongues can be for a sign even in the day we live, especially where there is a mix of culture as it was on the day of Pentecost. If however, all the believers share a common language, tongues can not be for a sign. That's why Paul warned the Corinthian's of it's abuse. God Bless! Aspilos |
