NASB | 1 Corinthians 14:22 So then tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophecy is for a sign, not to unbelievers but to those who believe. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 14:22 Therefore, [unknown] tongues are [meant] for a [supernatural] sign, not to believers but to unbelievers [who might be receptive]; while prophecy [foretelling the future, speaking a new message from God to the people] is not for unbelievers but for believers. |
Subject: A bit confused regarding tongues |
Bible Note: punkledo - So do I infer correctly that you are willing to admit that the biblical definition of 'tongues' in the passages you cited refers to languages and not to ecstatic babblings? If that's what you mean, then we're in blissful agreement! --Hank |
