AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 12:10 and to another the working of miracles, and to another prophecy [foretelling the future, speaking a new message from God to the people], and to another discernment of spirits [the ability to distinguish sound, godly doctrine from the deceptive doctrine of man-made religions and cults], to another various kinds of [unknown] tongues, and to another interpretation of tongues. |
Bible Question:
Is 'Tongues speaking' a gift of the Holy Spirit that can only be spoken if the Holy Spirit gives one the ability, or can it be said by any Born-again Christian as some preachers put it? I mean, is there any special unction by the Holy Spirit before one could speak in Tongues, or can it be done just by practice? |
Bible Answer: First we know speaking in tongues is biblical 1 Corinthians 12:10 (NASB) 10 and to another the effecting of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another the distinguishing of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, and to another the interpretation of tongues. As for speaking in tongues today this is much debated. There are some that believe it is a manifestation of the Holy Spirit that has ceased. Others believe it is still being manifested today. I am of the latter group. Of those that believe it is for today they feel it comes when you get more of the Holy Spirit called the infilling or baptism. I believe it comes when you learn to yield your will to the Holy Spirit. Larning to yield comes from practice but that is not to say you practice speaking in tongues you practice yeilding you will to the Lord. A good place to start is through prayer and fasting. |
