Subject: Gift of speaking in tongues for all? |
Bible Note: Tim: Thanks for sharing that with us. I did a little research and came up with the following Bible FACT. There is only one mention of the word "tongues" in the ENTIRE BOOK of Romans. There is absolutely NO MENTION of the word "tongues" in Romans chapter 8. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: Romans 3:13 (KJV) The word "tongue" (singular) does appear once in the book of Romans, but in the context it has absolutely nothing to do with tongues (known or unknown), languages or the gift of tongues. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. Ro 14:11 (KJV) The CONCEPT of speaking in tongues may or may not be found in Romans, but the word "TONGUES" (referring to the gift of tongues) just isn't there. I'm not at all challenging what you posted. I'm merely pointing out a FACT about the actual text of Romans. Grace to you, Kalos |
