Bible Question:
I am a born again believer, and have been baptized. I a prayed, and desire the baptizm of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongue. i do understand that this is only one of the gifts of the spirit, and that acoridng to 1 Corithians Paul states it rather that one have he gift prophesy which edifies the church, adn not of tongues which edify man(himself). I desire the gift of tongues that when speaking in an unknown tongue we praise God that He understands and it is a language spoken directly to Him. Will I miss the mark if I don't have this gift? and how do I recieve it? Thanks for your help. Faithful Husband |
Bible Answer: Greetings Faithful Husband! 1 Cor. 12:11 says of spiritual gifts, "All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines." Therefore, the best advice I can give you is to present your request to God, and if He wants you to have that particular gift, He will give it to you. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
