Do you know what type of "sign" tongues are? This is actually speaking of the individual tongues of Mark 16.
Tongues aren’t a sign for believers, because they follow those who believe.
They don’t need to seek signs, signs follow them.

I don't believe that... I think way too much emphasis is placed on the GIFTS... and not enough on SERVING others.... the gifts follow the need... and God is in control of it all.All born again Christians can speak in tongues, but not all of us will."
At least they're supposed to.Tongues aren’t a sign for believers, because they follow those who believe.

Amen!I don't believe that... I think way too much emphasis is placed on the GIFTS... and not enough on SERVING others.... the gifts follow the need... and God is in control of it all.

Indeed. You would be correct. Even the enemy will flee at the sound of these words. And yes they can be spoken, or prayed or sung, from under the bed. Peal these words back a bit, and it can easily be seen, whom it is, that planted the seed for the current disbelief. Imagine for a moment, how many battles could be won, how many people could be set free, how many people would be healed by a church(His Church) praying as One in The Spirit.I believe that when I speak in tongues, it is the Holy Spirit at work!

I have a tongue, in fact I have a couple. Seems to me we all have at least one tongue.....question is what do we use it for?Are they for everybody?
New tongues is all I get out of that. I don’t know if that means earthly language or language of angels. I love your avatar by the way. I live in the woods and want one of those things for a pet. Domesticate Raccoons Now!!!Do you know what type of "sign" tongues are? This is actually speaking of the individual tongues of Mark 16.
@Mantis It's a good photo on @1stCenturyLady 's avatar, isn't it? :)New tongues is all I get out of that. I don’t know if that means earthly language or language of angels. I love your avatar by the way. I live in the woods and want one of those things for a pet. Domesticate Raccoons Now!!!
For the glory of God, of course!I have a tongue, in fact I have a couple. Seems to me we all have at least one tongue.....question is what do we use it for?
"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!" - A full quote and not just a partial one that promotes your agenda would be nice. :)These rhetorical questions by Paul in Scripture (1 Cor 12:29,30) are sufficient proof that tongues are NOT for all:
Are all apostles? NO
are all prophets? NO
are all teachers? NO
are all workers of miracles? NO
Have all the gifts of healing? NO
do all speak with tongues? NO
do all interpret? NO
If tongues are not for all then it means that tongues are not a sign that people are "Spirit-filled".
Perhaps a good place to simply talk with God. We have what God has given us. People too often do not want to discuss things but rather to insist on things. God is the only One always in a place where He could insist if He would but...If you want me, I'll be under my bed...praying in tongues!![]()
Why discuss when it's easier to promote one's agenda by twisting another's words than face the uncomfortable prospect of change!Perhaps a good place to simply talk with God.

Unfortunately there is too much truth in your words that many men will not hear or consider! Maybe you are also speaking in an unknown tongue even now... unknown to many men, anyway. What does God think about it?Why discuss when it's easier to promote one's agenda by twisting another's words than face the uncomfortable prospect of change!
Amen!Unfortunately there is too much truth in your words that many men will not hear or consider! Maybe you are also speaking in an unknown tongue even now... unknown to many men, anyway. What does God think about it?
Help us dear Lord!
