1 | IS TONGUES FOR TODAY? | 1 Cor 14:5 | inmyheart | 54679 | ||
This topic has been well debated. However :) everything we do we do in faith. When we pray we pray in faith, when we walk, we walk in faith and when we ask for Spiritual gifts, we ask in faith, read Luke 11:13. Acts 19:2-6(NIV), and asked them, "Did you receive the Holy Spririt when you believed?" They answered, "No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit." So Paul asked, "Then what baptisim did you receive?" "John's baptism," they replied. Paul said, "John's baptism was a baptism of repentance. He told the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus. On hearing this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus. When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, AND THEY SPOKE IN TONGUES and prophesied. What is the answer? In Luke 11:13, you ASK. In Acts 19:2-6, by LAYING ON OF HANDS.

2 | IS TONGUES FOR TODAY? | 1 Cor 14:5 | Searcher56 | 54698 | ||
inmyheart, Acts 19:2-6 is a unique situation. Go to Acts 10:46 ... the context shows those who were speaking in tongues and praising God were just listening. In neither case, not in Acts 2:3ff, was faith mentioned. Moreover, in Romans 12:10 and the context, not everyone will be given the gift of tongues. Back to Acts 10:46 ... this shows that going forward does not save, a "sinners prayer" nor does baptism. Searcher |

Searcher, Greetings, and thank you for your response, however, as I had mentioned in my post that this has been a well debated topic. The poster asked, "these people believe they get tongues by faith. What is the answer?" I have given my answer to the best of my ability. I agree with you, not everyone will be given the gift of tongues....only the ones who ask in faith. Can a person be saved by not being baptized or not speaking in tongues? This to has been a well debated topic, and my belief is yes. I want to be on the receiving end when it comes to gifts, and if tongues in one of them, then so be it. God bless |
