Subject: Where in Acts does it say that? |
Bible Note: Thanks for the discussion! Let me address what you said 1) In 1 Corinthians 14:19 Paul says 'Yet in the church...' How does that not show that he does this in the church, as well as outside the church? He is saying He speaks with tongues, then says 'Yet in the church' so he has to be saying something to the effect ' I speak with tongues more than any of you, yet when I get into a church service, I would rather.... ' 2)What do you say that Jude 20 is talking about when it says Praying in the Holy Ghost, my reason for saying praying in the Holy Ghost is praying in other tongues, because Paul says in 1 Cor 14:15 that he will pray with the spirit, which it is the spirit, which the spirit is the holy ghost... so he is saying, I will pray with the Holy Ghost. So Jude is saying to pray in the holy ghost... which must mean tongues, since Paul said praying in the spirit is tongues. 3)You say no interpreter was necessary because each one heard them speaking in his own language. Do you think that the 120 were all saying the exact same thing? I don't see why they would all be speaking in tongues the exact same thing, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. However, no matter if they were or weren't, if one of them is speaking in another tongue, and its the tongue that a man from Egypt understands, does that mean the Asian understands it as well? Or would he still need an interpretation to know what that feller was saying? I hope I made sense in that point, what I'm saying, is if you were to speak in tongues, and it happed to be Spanish, the mexican man next to me wont need an interpreter, because it was his language, however I'm from the US and would not understand it at all, so I would still need an interpreter to know what you were saying. So there is no way, everyone, understood what all 120 were saying. God Bless, Mitch |
