1 | speaking in tongues | NT general Archive 1 | prazn | 122034 | ||
Ken John, There are many (thousands, if not millions) of churches in existence, around this world, today whose congregants speak in tongues. The Holy Spirit still gifts certain children of God to speak in tongues. When one speaks in tongues he, or she, is speaking to God with his spirit. The gift does nothing to edify the church (unless interpreted), but builds up the spirit of the one speaking. You many want to consider visiting a Pentecostal/Apostolic church sometime soon!?! blessings! prazn |

If I may butt in, speaking in tongues is a rather difficult and complex subject which is another good reason to stick with the way our Bibles, God's Word handles this topic. Every single time, this ability is mentioned in the Bible, it is very clear that the message is from the Holy Spirit AND the message was clearly understood by the audience in spite of the speaker having never studied that language. As a matter of fact, Paul instructs the christians at Corinth thusly: 1 Cor 14:27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret. 28But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in church, and let him speak to himself and to God. 29Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge. Do you or anyone else on the Forum know of anyone on this earth that speaks in such a tongue recognizable as a common language in some country? For that is the standard we see in the Bible and we MUST "test the spirits" as commanded to keep false teachers from wrecking havoc in the Lord's church. Hope this helps and God bless. --Rowdy |
