JUST IN FROM ANOTHER THREAD: TONGUES



In reading the Book of Acts, I see that Peter wasn't part of the groups that spoke in tongues. Peter had a better gift of knowing what was happening and explaining it and harvesting a crop of new believers.



Looking at Paul's writings, it is obvious that not all Christians should be speaking in tongues. They should pray to receive the greater gifts.



I think one of the greatest gifts is of those who no matter where they go they wind up helping someone accept Christ.



Here is something that most folks don't know. Among the Hindu followers, there is speaking in tongues.



Years ago, I met a woman (1st date) and I knew by her church that speaking in tongues was a big item. I told her that I had a problem with the teaching people how to speak in tongues. Doesn't the Holy Spirit know how to just give it? She replied that she really didn't teach them but instead let them watch and listen so that they got the idea.



Funny thing is; it doesn't sound like a language. There is too much rhyming and too much repeating of words. The worst case was a pastor saying, "To drink,......to drink, to drink, to drink. To drink!"



I have even run across folks who claim that God can't hear prayers that are not in tongues. No body gets saved I guess.



OKAY! LET THE BRONCS OUT OF THE CORALS AND LETS RIDE 'EM COWBOYS AND COWGIRLS:yay::bouncy:

Philip John, Thank You for standing on GOD's word and refusing to comprimise. I can see that you are anointed by GOD and have a good understanding of His word. It's sad to see how many of these people are deceived. Keep posting because many of us are listening and learning. Your sister in Christ, Deborah
