NASB | Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 2:4 And they were all filled [that is, diffused throughout their being] with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues (different languages), as the Spirit was giving them the ability to speak out [clearly and appropriately]. |
Subject: Is speaking in tongues a necessity ? |
Bible Note: tgc: I've always thought that a great deal of the misunderstanding surrounding the speaking-in-tongues mystique could be resolved simply by substituting the word "languages" for "tongues." And a great deal of the aura could be removed from the slain-in-the-spirit mystique by reading Hank Hanegraaff's "Counterfeit Revival". The naked truth about us human beings is that we by nature simply don't want to know the truth that will make us free. Our illusions are so comfortable! --Hank |
