Bible Answer: "You said, "The word says let everything be confirmed by two or three witnesses" ... what is the passage ... any of the above? What is the context of the passage ... is it about discipline? What is the context of "He won't give you a stone if asking for a loaf"? --------------------------- Matt 18.16 But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that 'every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.' Matt 7.9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? --------------------------------- I'd line to know where you see "private prayer time" and speaking in tongues? ------------------------------------- Do you pray? Is it private or always in public? As to tongues, that's between you and the Lord and how critical it all seems to you. But Pauls says this: 1 Corth 12.31 But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way. 13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. Now don't tell me at this point that tongues isn't a greater gift since it is a language of/by the Holy Spirit. That tongues and intimacy are intrinsically linked is a given to those who practice their gift in earnest and love. 1 Corth.13. comes alive to those who do so beyond just speaking. |
