Bible Question: if a pastor is praying over the congregation and begins to speak in tongues, is this out of order if no one could explain what was said? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Vic... The old divines wrote "the acceptable way of worshiping the true God is instituted by himself, and so limited by his own revealed will, that he may not be worshiped according to the imaginations and devices of men, or the suggestions of Satan, under any visible representation, or any other way not prescribed in the Holy Scripture." (WCF, chapter 21, paragraph 1) They based this on Deuteronomy 4:15-20; 12:32; Matthew 4:9-10; 15:9; Acts 17:23-25; Exodus 20:4-6, John 4:23-24; and Colossians 2:18-23. I should expect that this principle would apply even to those congregations that considered speaking in tongues an appropriate behavior for corporate worship. In Him, Doc |
