Bible Question (short): Tongues speaking selfish w/o interteper? |
Question (full): Susan, I agree, in part, with your post 148122 "Tongues for Spiritual edification (1 Cor 14:4)" ... I would say tongues for our own SELFISH spiritual edification. The purpose of any of the gifts is to edify the church (1 Cor 12-14). |
