Subject: Joann ... Why not use your gift ? |
Bible Note: "Your mind is unfruitful when praying in tongues, because your mind is not use in the process and there is no benefit." What is the answer to the question? Searcher, scripture states that WHEN PRAYING IN TONGUES...the mind is unfruitful.... First, not IF you THINK you are praying in tongues but WHEN PRAYING in tongues... Second, the mind is not the spirit so although the mind may not benefit, the spirit man can...The Holy Spirit 'speaketh mysteries'. 1 Corinthians 14:2 2 For one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God; for no one understands, but in his spirit he speaks mysteries. Now, these verses state that tongues is a fact, and that tongues is the Holy Spirit speaking, thus it is the will of God. If you believe Paul is saying tongues is unprofitable while he is also saying they are a fact you have a delima. Why did God ordain tongues is they are valuless as you imply? Because the above verse clearly states they are real and odviously God's wisdom is not questionable. Why would you resist what is God's will? God bless |
