NASB | Acts 1:1 The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 1:1 The first account I made, Theophilus, was [a continuous report] about all the things that Jesus began to do and to teach [Luke 1:1-4] |
Subject: Where in Acts does it say that? |
Bible Note: Now, Lets deal with prayer tongues. Paul says in 1 Cor 14:18 that 'I thank my God I speak with tongues more than ye all' And in verse 19 he says 'Yet in the church...' So Paul shows here, that he speaks in tongues outside of the church service. Which would have to mean that he has a manifestation in ihs life of speaking in tongues that is done outside the church service. And in Chapter 12, he was dealing with a version that was done in the church service. Also, lets look at one more place. In Jude verse 20 the Word says "But ye, beloved, bulding up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost" Now, if we are commanded to pray in the Holy Ghost, which that just commanded us to do so, then how would God be just to command us to do something, that we could not do? And if we say that not everyone can pray in the Holy Ghost, then we are saying God is unjust to require us to do something, he hasn't given us the ability to do. It would be no differnt than me telling my son if he doesn't literally fly into the kitchen, he can't have dinner. That would be very unjust of me. Also, sorry, I have one more thing. In the Book of Acts and chapter 2, we see the 120 filled with the Holy Ghost, and the 120 speaking in other tongues, and we see them on the street and other people are amazed. Now, Paul said that if there is no interpreter, then don't speak in tongues in the church service. So if what they are doing in Acts, is the same as the Gift of Tongues that Paul writes of in Corinthians 12, then on the day of Pentecost, God himself messed up, and had these men doing something, that he didn't want to happen. Just more food for thought. I hope this has helped brother. If I missed any points, please let me know. God Bless, Mitch |
