Bible Note: Hi Julia Marie In going back to your original statement. You can now place that scripture in John 16:23 alongside this scripture which is totally within context. As a matter of fact the context of this scripture is only about PRAYER. Luke 11:1-13 But in order to find the full context of John 16:23, we need to also look at the following verse. John 16:24 24.) Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. So we can see from verse ( 24 ) your within the grounds of context. But there is that troubling piece at the beginning of verse ( 23 ) John 16:23 23.) "And in that day ye shall ask me nothing." This part of the verse actually refers to the preceding thought, which is about the disciples asking Him questions before His crucifixion which would be the next day. As far as your statement about Eph. 6:18 you judge it for yourself wether your belief is really correct, given that it says in 1 Cor. 14:4 He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. If you are praying in the Spirit, praying in unknown tongues, then you are the only one that is being edified. I fully understand what you are trying to say about praying at all times, our (Language), is inadequate, besides when you are praying in the Spirit, you are being prayed for by the Holy Ghost, your also praising, and worshiping God. It isn't just our asking for things, how would your getting a new job edify you in the inner man? That would bring no edification at all would it. I believe Satan cannot understand the tongues of a prayer language God has given to His people for the sole purpose of their edification. Otherwise we may as well pray using our own language, and understanding. Those are the times when the Holy Ghost, takes the opportunity to pray with groaning's which cannot be uttered Rom. 8:26 Vintage68 |
