NASB | 1 Corinthians 13:1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. |
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: It is His word that is truth (John 17:17)! You cannot worship Him in truth if you reject His word and set yourself up as the standard of truth! I would urge you to find a local church with godly men and women that could teach you and help you understand how to properly study the word. We all need help sir, some more then others, and no one completely understands it all. But with all due respect sir you are so far off the mark you need help and here you only reject the help offered. Perhaps in a local church you will be more open to allowing those who can help you do so. Your post speak for themselves and leave much to be desired regarding proper understanding. Context is indeed missing from your understanding of scripture. And, well your logic betrays you sir. It has lead you unto error even to the point you have set yourself up to be lord of the word of God to decide what parts are acceptable and what are not. You have clearly demonstrated this with your post. Steve |
