    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Tongues is for when we do not know what God's will is. So to pray perfect prayer or praise to God when alone is when you use our prayer language, and Paul said he uses his more than all of us. So where are you getting that Paul is against tongues? That is willfully being obtuse. When with the...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    1. 1 Corinthians 14:2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. (The sign of tongues is our prayer language given to all believers Mark 16:16-18. You do not understand it and no one else does either...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    The first type of speaking in tongues without interpretation needed is prayer and praise language TO God. It is called a sign. But tongues, like Jesus in Luke 2:34-35 was a sign "which will be spoken against." That is why in 1 Corinthians 14:22-23 it is a negative sign to the unbelievers but...

    10 Commandments too Tough?

    Enoch, go back and read the scriptures in my post #15 and tell be why you don't believe them. You mentioned Paul. Don't you know his writings MUST be read in context? Many times he was speaking of what it was like back when he was under the law, (Romans 7:14-25), or when he was hunting down...

    10 Commandments too Tough?

    If you can't show me scripture in what you believe, then you are just letting false teachers read the Bible for you. That is just plain lazy. You don't even believe the scriptures I showed you. You just want to believe what sounds good to your itching ears.

    10 Commandments too Tough?

    Don't you know that what you wrote happened on the Day of Pentecost? Freedom from sin has already been given to us. Beware, don't wait until the resurrection to stop sinning. That's too late!!! Ask Jesus for the power of His Spirit now! Romans 6:1 and 6-7 "What shall we say then? Shall we...

    Can anyone tell me what is the second…

    Jesus' commandments covers all the old Ten Commandments and more going deeper to our core by His Spirit in us. The Ten Commandments are still alive and well, and sinners will be judged by them. Christians who walk in the Spirit are not under the old laws, because we establish the law, Romans 3:31.

    Can anyone tell me what is the second…

    And how do you count up to 10 Commandments?

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Tongues is a negative sign to unbelievers, Jun. It confirms them in their unbelief. That is why the next verse says they will think you are crazy. Mockers of tongues today, just like in the first century, confirm they are either unsaved or uninformed. As for tongues being not for today, they...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I went back and looked and I had mentioned your name. I also just added your name to one I'd like for you to see. 22 23 138 140 141 I like you because you make me think, and have to do research. We are kindred souls. LOL

    I'll print these and see if I can make sense of the timing. Interesting for sure.

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    That made me curious about the timing of the death of Judas. Matthew says it was before Jesus was crucified. When morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people plotted against Jesus to put Him to death. 2 And when they had bound Him, they led Him away and delivered Him to...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Why didn't you ever respond to me? We could have had a nice conversation, and I know a lot on tongues.

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Barn, I love Enoch, and at his age should have grown out of belittling what someone says, by name calling it nonsense and rubbish. (Spare the rod, spoil the child.)

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    I don't have the second type of tongues from 1 Corinthians 12. Nor do I have interpretation of tongues for the profit of all, so no. I only have the one given to all born again Christians, same as you. I'm just not afraid to use it in prayer and praise to God. But I had to shed the chains of...

    How Bitterness Can Keep Us Out of Heaven

    Yes, that is true. Jesus took away our sin nature and gave us His Spirit. But bitterness comes from rotting fruit. 14 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Hi Pearl, Remember to read verse 23 with verse 22 to see that when unbelievers hear tongues they will think you are crazy. It is because of 1 Corinthians 14:2. That is the unbreakable rule about all our types of tongues. It is not a positive sign, but a negative sign. With that in mind, then...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Dropship, there are demonic tongues, and the Catholic Church uses that manifestation as a sign someone is possessed. But they are smart enough to investigate how they became possessed in the first place. It is usually from someone opening the door to the demonic realm by using an Ouija board or...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    Well, for one thing there are two types of manifestations of tongues. Together they are manifestations. But the one for all of us individually for personal prayer TO God is called a 'sign,' Mark 16:16-18, and the other for the profit of all and for ministry FROM God is called a 'gift,' 1...

    Speaking in tongues is NOT a gift

    The reality is that not everyone going to church are Christians. Even in Pentecostal denominations I've heard people speak in obvious fake tongues. I've even got an old girlfriend who has spoken in fake tongues for 46 plus years since the 70's. I did too then until one night I was finally...
