AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 13:8 ¶ Love never fails [it never fades nor ends]. But as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for the gift of special knowledge, it will pass away. |
Bible Question:
My son asked me about the gift of tongues. I am really familiar and thought I would ask your biblical opinion the it. I know that it first occurred during Pentacost. Is it old testament and not an active gift in new testament times? I have only heard it occur once about 30 years ago. It was to minister to others at Pentacost in "their" language I thought. There is supposedly to be an interpreter. Just need some clarification if it is relevant today. |
