    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Unless you want to call God a liar better read James 4:7. You put yourself in disrepute all by yourself with no help from others.. How can someone who has a hot line to the Holy Spirit and as a Tutor, be wrong? Besides, Jesus promised to send another comforter from the Father for the...

    Therefore, you believe you stand on safe ground on this matter because of consensus?

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Nothing that I've learned about the things of God that was not taught by the Holy Spirit! Form the beginning, in the Garden, Satan told Adam and Eve a very, very big lie: "thou shalt surely not die." I've asked you a very simple question to expound on 1 Co. 5:5 [which by the way, was your own...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I've NEVER claimed that others don't have a hotline to the Holy Spirit, but I'm confident you've noticed that of me. I thought for a moment you were speaking of yourself. I apologize. Lol You know, I've noticed that too. Next time I'll be more Christ-like, ty. I was not aware that I was...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    If the above is your criteria for understanding scriptures then I can see why you are having difficulties. I've already given you the example about the Bereans. For instance, for many years I have puzzled over a verse and even prayed about it's understanding. Then one day, the verse popped up...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Not if you know your Bible. Yes, be like the Bereans who searched the scriptures to see if what Paul have said were so. There are many people who come with agendas and presuppositions. To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    What has my walk with the Lord Jesus to do with the subject at hand? If you must know; in eternity past long before the foundation of the world. Proof? If I had died as a baby I would have gone to be with my Lord Jesus! 2 Corinthians 5:8. Can you say the same for yourself? To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    So sorry for you! Read again and again 1 Co. 14:22. Many in Christendom have no idea what is the nature and character of the "phenomenon of tongues." The child of God is given the gift of tongues only in the church setting so that the whole congregation MAY BE EDIFIED. But if there is no...

    I feel sorry for you. Didn't you know it is the Holy Spirit who gives truths to the people of God. or do you have another in mind? Lol To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I asked you first. After you've interpreted 1 Corinthians 5:5 in your own wisdom, then I'll give my interpretation by the Holy Spirit.

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I'm sorry for your misinterpretation of 1 Corinthians 5:5. And this is your problem. I urge you to read verse 5 again and again, word for word until you get the gist. Better yet, ask the Holy Spirit for guidance and wisdom. To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Read and learn, 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 reads: 13) For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15) Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    This passage has nothing to do with with the issue at hand. Are you saying there are contradictions in Scripture? God forbid! The setting of your account is found in 1 Corinthians 5:1 and for you to understand the meaning you must read the whole chapter. 1 Corinthians 5 is a different issue...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Indeed. This is how we know that the BOOK [Bible] has been completed through the Holy Spirit, and we are to adhere to the contents therein. You keep talking about gifts and I keep talking about "tongues." It boils down to this, 1 Corinthians 13:9-10: 09) For we know in part, and we prophesy...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    You better believe it! BECAUSE I am God's child

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    The date might be important to you. But for me, the more significant is knowing that what God wants His children to know about Him, about sin, and about salvation, have been written in book form, AND there will no more information coming from Him after He wrote the last book according to...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    You mean CANNOT do and that is kill a child of God. But ultimately, Satan has nothing and can't do anything towards God's child. ALL I HAVE TO DO IS RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM ME! This is Jesus' promise if you didn't know it already. To God Be The Glory

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Not at all. I believe Satan comes as an angel of light mimicking Jesus. Lol
