Bible Question:
"THE" only sign? If speaking in tongues is "THE" only sign, then I guess the other spiritual gifts (1 Cor 12) do not count. Of course ... whn you speak in another tongue, it is a known language to at least of one the human listeners ... or is it a language at all. I also think James 2 talks about a sign of a believer. |
Bible Answer: We are not talking about a sign of a believer. We are talking about the sign of one being filled with the Holy Ghost. Did Peter say in Acts 2:38 ...believe and you shall recieve the gift of the Holy Ghost. No. Can you believe and not recieve the Holy Ghost? the answer is, Yes. |
