AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 13:1 ¶ If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love [for others growing out of God's love for me], then I have become only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal [just an annoying distraction]. |
Subject: Why do I want to speak in tongues? |
Bible Note: Dear justme, Don't you realize the arguments you are using were the same used by the majority of so-called believers long ago? When Jesus arrived on the scene the establishment refused to believe that He was the Son of God, why, because of their faulty human interpretation of the scriptures. Copernicus and Galileo promoted the theory of a round earth but the establishment refused to believe it so, why, because they erroneously believed that the scriptures made the earth to be the center of the universe. What other reason do you have to explain the fact that we as professed Christians fail to experience the signs of believers and the gifts of the spirit? Is it not possible that we see things through faulty human wisdom? flyman |
