Bible Question: What is the difference between speaking in tongue and speaking in other tongues? |
Bible Answer: Hello Greg, This is a much debated subject and you can find many posts by typing in "speaking tongues" in the quick search window, top right of the page. There are tongues for personal edifictaion: 1Cor 14:2 "For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries." 1 Corinthians 14:4 He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. KJV Tongues for interpretation: 1 Corinthians 14:5 "I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying" KJV Tongues for unbelievers: 1 Corinthians 14:22 "Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe." KJV 1 Corinthians 14:39 "Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues." I read a good book concerning this subject called " The walk of the Spirit, The Walk of Power" by Dave Roberson if you care to check into that. Love in Christ bgg |
