Bible Question: What does the bible say about speaking things into existance? and about the tongue? |
Bible Answer: "Speaking with tongues" means that the person who speaks with tongues has received the "gift of the Holy Spirit right there and then at the moment he/she has been saved through Jesus by the Grace of God. We read, in 1 Cor. 12:28, that we speak with tongues with the perpose of "exalting God" - Act.10:46. Speaking with tongues is not a gift givin to us for the benefit of the Body of Christ, for our own personal benefit to personaly exalt God... It should not be confused though, with the gift of "speaking IN tongues", that must be spoken when there is the gift of interpretation present in the Assembly: 1 Cor.14:5 Though the "Gift of Speaking WITH Tongue" is given to us for our own personal blessing, the Gift of Speaking IN Tongues is a Gift givin to us in order to share with our Assembly. |
