Subject: Is there "speaking in tongues" mentioned |
Bible Note: Tim. I don't think they knew Japanese. I asked them "Anata no namai wa nun desu ka?" ... What is your name? ... They looked at me with a strange look. I believe you know that the temples in Corinth also spoke in tongues. I haven't studied chapter 14 enough to prove the when Pual used the singular tongue, he meant the fakers and when He used the plural tongues, it was about the spiritual gift. I do agree with ... If a 'tongue' is needed, GOD GIVES IT - as with the other gifts. But, to certain people. For you, it is preaching, which is needed often. When I have heard some who didn't have the gift - I wondered if anyone there had the gift and didn't exercise it. I have the gifts of teaching, administration and discernment. The latter dosen't kick in too often, and I wish I didn't always have it. It has caused "problems" or maybe it was just fear. Steve |
