That's what I said. Explain the verse. 1 Cor. 14:22 about tongues being a sign to the unbeliever.

So explain the type of sign that tongues are for the unbeliever in 1 Corinthians 14:22

Interpret 1 Corinthians 14:22-23 about tongues being a sign to the unbeliever not a believer. How is it a sign? The Corinthians were Gentiles.

My teaching is through books. You can read them or leave them. But God does the teaching. I just write what He teaches me through being able to hear his voice. Here is a review on the book on tongues He wrote through me. My next two books will be on grace and faith. "I have been a...

A couple of years ago on TV, or I read it, but can't remember who said it. But that coincides with why it was alright with God that I teach. Those two verses break up the flow of the subject about prophets.

Your interpretations about the gifts of the Spirit seem worldly. Please explain 1 Corinthians 14:22-23. What type of sign to an unbeliever was that if all were speaking in tongues and unbelievers couldn't understand and thought they were crazy?

Acts 21:7 And when we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, greeted the brethren, and stayed with them one day. 8 On the next day we who were Paul’s companions departed and came to Caesarea, and entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed...

There was nothing "devout" about those "others." They didn't belong to God and could have been Gentiles, to whom the gospel was not open to yet. That should be a warning to us too. God hates mockers. Psalms 1:1. Cessationists should take heed, don't you think. God hates unbelief. When I hear of...

IOW, you believe that there is nothing supernatural about the Gifts of the Spirit. Davy, that is quite an erroneous theory.

You sound like my mother's pastor who who was born in Germany, then his family went to Brazil so he knew three languages. He said that was speaking in tongues. 1 Corinthians 14:2 is the rule you cannot contradict.

Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. 5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every...

You: "Because God sent them speaking to them in their own languages- actual languages, why? To lead them to repentance. " Everything you believe about tongues is wrong and you try to teach error, saying its purpose was "to lead them to repentance" and that the tongues, themselves were the...

Verse 23 contradicts your reasoning and most likely the commentary you are studying instead of the Word of God. Those is 23 didn't repent as you claim. They ran for their lives! So, the "sign" of tongues is not a positive sign, but a negative sign. Actually to believers it is positive, but to...

You'd be right about my first 30 years of going to church. My testimony tells of what I had to do to stop having the desire to sin. If you want to go to heaven stop having itching ears and choosing the doctrines of demons. Demons don't care if you believe in Jesus, as long as you keep sinning...

You're kidding yourself. 1 John 3:Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him. You won't be able to stop sinning on your own with your old nature intact. First that old nature must be nailed to the cross. Read Romans 6:6-7. If you want to know how to become actually born again and filled...

I don't read commentaries for answers. I understand what Scripture is saying by the Spirit. And the gift of tongues in 1 Cor. 12 IS an office. That is why those who have it must look to see if the person with the office of interpreter is there; otherwise, they must keep silent. But the sign of...

That is possibly true as there are few that find it. We must be born again to understand the Scriptures. 1 Corinthians 2:9-16

God gave each devout Jew the supernatural ability to HEAR their own language. Read it again and you can see that that is what it plainly says. Tongues are not understood by any man. 1 Corinthians 14:2. That also is plainly stated, even without adding "unknown". Carnal human reasoning says otherwise.

Why, seeing as the Holy Spirit had not even been given yet. He did in Mark 16, and there was no interpretation.

No, It means there are no words that can rightly express. 26 And in the same way—by our faith—the Holy Spirit helps us with our daily problems and in our praying. For we don’t even know what we should pray for nor how to pray as we should, but the Holy Spirit prays for us with such feeling that...
