Subject: when do I spake in tounges |
Bible Note: Paul said: 1 Cor. 12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.(The more excellent way is love - 1 Cor. 13) Paul told us to "covet earnestly the best gifts" So even Paul knew that some of the spiritual gifts were to be more useful and more desirable than gifts like tongues. Then Paul said: 1 Cor. 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. Paul said to covet to prophesy. I don't think He said to covet tongues. However Paul concluded by saying "forbid not to speak with tongues" Covet and fobid not are key here, don't you agree? |
