NASB | 1 Corinthians 14:19 however, in the church I desire to speak five words with my mind so that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 14:19 nevertheless, in public worship I would rather say five understandable words in order to instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue [which others cannot understand]. |
Bible Question: If I cannot speak in tongues, does this mean that the Holy Spirit is not in me? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Bobbie Faye! No, the fact that you do not speak in tongues does not mean that the Holy Spirit is not in you. Speaking in tongues is just one of the spiritual gifts!! By no means is speaking in tongues a requirement for salvation. Please read 1 Corinthians 14.. I have never spoken in tongues, but I have received salvation in Jesus Christ! --Nolan |
