Bible Question:
Thanks Prayon for your reply and allowing me to ask questions so that i may grow in the knowledge of Holy Bible. My another question is; "What is the importance of speaking in tongues in a believer's life"? |
Bible Answer: Show us: where in the Book of Acts does one find INDIVIDUALS SEEKING for the Holy Spirit and EXPECTING TO RECEIVE TONGUES as the sign that He's come? This is the standard way the "baptism of the Spirit" occurs among Pentecostals, but it has no parallel in Acts. In Acts, the Holy Spirit always falls on entire groups who are not expecting tongues (or any other sign). [DO077-1] |
