Bible Question:
Is there anywhere in the Bible where it says that if you do not speak in tongues that you are not saved? I have a co-worker who is adament about the fact that you're not saved if you don't speak in tongues and I would really like to help her because she is very confused. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Nedra! The short answer to your question is 'No'! There is not any verse in the Bible which says that one must speak in tongues in order to be saved. There isn't even a verse in the Bible which says that all Christians can speak in tongues. However, verses like Rom. 10:9 and Eph. 2:8-9 make it clear how one is saved - through faith alone!
