HA.... You did it.... NOPE... they are NOT for EVERYBODY... and using them as a SIGN of being Spirit filled is very dangerous in my opinion.
Prove they are not for everybody...you can't. Just like I can't prove they are for everybody. Don't believe me? Prove me wrong! Lol

No, they are one of the gifts and the gifts are given by The HolySpirit ….i can not speak in tongues and at one time felt very ‘ lower ‘ down than other Christians who have claimed that I should be able to speak in tongues. It caused me to doubt so any things at one time, now I am open to the gift, but value the gifts I have been given xx

Since Christianity is a walk, perhaps you will receive them at a certain point in your walk, perhaps at the Lord's time. That's how it worked for me. I was a local leader in a "revival" though at the time, I didn't speak in tongues. I was also a smoker. God uses the strangest people! He confounds the wise! He's really smart, eh? Lol

Yes, I have kind of left it in the Lords hands for quite some years now……as a lone Christian for so long I figured if I started speaking in tongues they might have actually locked me up !

If they haven't locked me up, you're probably safe! Lol

I'll let the others do that... HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!
Let me.

Read 1 Cor. chapter 12.

But here is a single verse.

30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

And what year was that sir? Lolz :p

We haven't crossed paths before, welcome to Christianityboard. :D

hello, im the new guy. As for what year, that would have been the year that the last apostle died. And i believe that would have been john, who died around the year, 100.
