Subject: Speaking in tongues? |
Bible Note: Retxar, there is also no scripture evidence that proves it is not an earthly language. According to Strongs it is "the language or dialect used by a particular people distinct from that of other nations" I'm not critizing those who use it as an aid to their prayers. I do critizes those who claim to other believers that because they do use it in that way they are more "filled" with the Holy Spirit than their counterparts telling them that it is a requirement to being filled with the Spirit. This is nonsense! It is also most definately against Scripture and is being used for self exaltation. I have Christian brothers and sisters that I love very much that practice tongues in this way but never claim it is a requirement for being filled or more filled with the Spirit. 1Cr 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 1Cr 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. Gal 3:27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Rejoice in our Lord, Bob |
