    WHAT IS "SPEAKING IN TONGUES" and the SIGNIFICANCE OF IT?

    Before the Bible was completed it was biblical for those at the church of Corinth to speak in a tongue. That was possible because God was still bringing revelation in that day. Individuals would receive a message from God in an unknown language and when that was interpreted it served to edify...

    problem related to praying in tongues

    Seems this phenomenon of "Speaking in Tongues" has everyone "tongue tied" so to speak! I mean out of 135 posts, someone in this thread should at least have gotten the gist of this significant subject! I believe this confusion of speaking in tongues began with churches that spoke and prayed in...

    problem related to praying in tongues

    I beg to differ. In Acts, the Holy Spirit was manifested (poured out) to each disciple and apostles, so that the people heard the Gospel in their original language. Remember, the apostles and disciples spoke with only one language, yet at Pentecost, there were at least 15 or so Nations that...

    I didn't know you get your truths (spiritual things) from "google." Myself, I'd rather stay with the Bible, which is the Word of God!

    problem related to praying in tongues

    HAS ANYONE EVER WONDERED WHY THE "TONGUES PHENOMENON" ONLY OCCURRED IN THE CHURCH OF CORINTH, AND THAT PAUL SPOKE WITH TONGUES MORE THAN ANYONE? Please don't anybody say because of the women being disorderly in the congregation.

    problem related to praying in tongues

    Obviously, things that are of God are spiritual in nature. For the last time, please define the meaning of "speaking in tongues" BECAUSE from God's perspective, you have no clue as to what it is. But let me give you a hint and perhaps you might see it? Please read 1 Corinthians 14:18-29, and...

    problem related to praying in tongues

    Only because you have no concept as to the meaning of the word "phenomenon." The word "phenomenon" can be translated as "miracle," "experience," "reality," to name a few. True, but Acts and 1 Corinthians are entirely different concepts, although both are a miracle occurrences. Here lies the...

    ADDENDUM, The miracle that occurred at Pentecost that about 15 Nations heard the Gospel preached in their own languages is NOT the same as the "Tongues Phenomenon!

    problem related to praying in tongues

    problem related to praying in tongues I'm afraid not one who posted on this thread has gotten the gist on the "Phenomenon of Tongues" including the writer of the OP! We do not go into our closets and pray to God with a different language other than the language we learned from our parents...

    UNRELATED??? FYI, everything in the Bible is corelated, from Genesis to Revelation for the Bible is one cohesive whole, not to mention that God is the Ultimate AUTHOR!!! To God Be The Glory

    problem related to praying in tongues

    problem related to praying in tongues Why is it that Christians who has no idea about the the things of God, come to the market place of the world, and tries to sell their goods (knowledge) to others NOT really knowing what they are selling? Case in point, the Tongues Phenomenon? Actually...

    What Is Waiting For Us At The End Of Life?

    @Aunty Jane, I'm in agreement in most of your comments in post 14, except for your scripture reference of 2 Corinthians 11:14-15 which I believe is somewhat out of place, although everything in the Bible corelates from Genesis to Revelation. 2 Corinthians 11 is used mostly when Satan sits...

    What Is Waiting For Us At The End Of Life?

    Medical machines can break down therefore, the NDE studies are NOT trustworthy! You're joking, right? BECAUSE that's NOT what the Bible teaches! 2 Peter 1:21 reads: "For the prophecy CAME NOT in old time BY THE WILL OF MAN: BUT HOLY MEN OF GOD spake as they were moved (instructed) by the Holy...

    What Is Waiting For Us At The End Of Life?

    How did these thousands of people who experienced the above communicate this to the living? Left to go where? This, of course, is a Catholic doctrine NOT found in Scripture! As I've already stated (with Scripture references) that when an unsaved person dies he goes to a place of silence to...

    Which book of the bible talks about sin first?

    Which book of the bible talks about sin first? I say, Isaiah Chapter 14! If we are to teach the true Gospel then we ought to consider the tenets of the whole Bible. We know that the firmament (heaven) was created on the second day, the day when Satan supposedly fallen/cast unto earth, which...

    What Is Waiting For Us At The End Of Life?

    IT IS TOO! for, "the wages of sin is death." Death means to exist no more!!! When an unsaved person die both body and spirit go to a place of silence and awaits resurrection. (Psalms 115:17). But when a saved person die his body goes to the grave however; in his spirit essence, he goes to be...

    Where Do We Go When We Die

    Your statement seem contradictory. Which one is it? "Anointed Christians??? go to heaven when they die" or "everyone goes to the grave to await resurrection?" I understand what you are saying, but please elaborate for those who might be confused, with Scripture references, if possible.

    Resurrrection and Thousand Years

    As of now, all I can read from your post is your opinion. Chapter and verse, please. Where do you read that? In fact it is the opposite! Genesis 3:15 reads: "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his...
