Subject: Is speaking in tongues a necessity ? |
Bible Note: Peter, good to share this information with you. I was just chatting with a very good friend of mine and certianly a man of God, in my point of view, and he said thatit does sound legalistic and that God does not place things like speaking in tongues as a prerequisite to being saved. I believe that God gave us His Son and that all we have to do is follow Jesus, repent from our wicked ways, and we are saved! Praise and Glory to God. My hope is in the Name of The Lord. |
