    Tongues?

    71What, then, does Paul mean when he says, “I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all” (1 Cor. 14:18)? Does it mean that Paul prayed in tongues in private more than anyone else? No. Paul spoke in tongues more than anyone else because he was constantly preaching the gospel in new...

    Tongues?

    At the same time, if the gift of speaking in tongues were active in the church today, it would be performed in agreement with Scripture.

    Tongues?

    (Wakka;48130) 1 Corinthians 14:14 14For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. The Holy Spirit gives us utterance.

    I think you are right this is very good insight I hadnt thought of it in those terms but I would agree, he also will have subdued all evil (satan) so there would not be need for the son in the roll he now plays. If there is no more sin when its complete the roll would be completed.
