Why are you posting the scripture that we are talking about? I know the scripture. You haven't answered my question. What do you believe is meant by tongues being a sign to the unbeliever.

Are you saying that all Charismatics are adulterers, murderers, liars and just plain wicked? Because those are the type of people Jesus is talking about. As far as the mention of gifts, that is just for emphasis. IOW, it doesn't matter how gifted you are, if you continue sinning, you are...

What it matches is 1 Corinthians 13. If you think this verse in Matthew 7 doesn't apply to giftless Baptists or Calvinists, you are undiscerning. You don't realize it, but you are exhibiting the reason tongues is a sign to the unbeliever. Beware of judgment. You are becoming foolhardy. Why do...

Yes, and the EoB was read in all the churches.

God does the approving, not man, especially the Roman Church. I'm talking about The Epistle of Barnabas. I truly believe it is written by the same author as Hebrews. And it explains things and commands things our current Bible doesn't have that we direly need, that could have saved 60,000,000...

Silly, the last words show is it about sin, not gifts, meaning that even if someone is in ministry and had all gifs, and had faith to move mountains, but had not love, they were nothing, their willful sins of adultery and the like are not just overlooked because God somehow owes it to them. Like...

Not if it was written in the first century by an apostle and read in all the churches!

ROFL

The only way you understand supernatural tongues is through the supernatural gift of interpretation of tongues. Without the gift of interpretation of tongues, the tongue is not understood by the speaker nor the hearer, and only the speaker's spirit is edified, but his mind is unfruitful.

It is missing a book, but I've got that book.

You completely misread what was written. They don't understand in their mind, but only in their spirit which is what is edified. By praying in tongues we build up our spirit. It is not one gift, but two.

ROFL 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. 1 Corinthians 14:13 Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret. 14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit...

Then where is all the scriptures from everyone not an apostle that spoke in tongues and prophesied? The Bible is not "complete.," so is not the "perfect." Even with all that was written, we still see through a dark glass, but then we shall see Him face to face. That is literal, not symbolic as...

I see one test to see if you are abiding in Jesus and doing His will, and that is in 1 John 3. 21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God. 22 And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His...

Jesus is omniscient, so he KNOWS everything and everyone. This is not that kind of knowing. It is knowing in the Biblical sense, like consummating a marriage. To receive the Holy Spirit one must repent of all sin, and Jesus gives you the Holy Spirit. Consider it an engagement ring. But salvation...

No, a non-believer can't cast out demons like these did. So you are wrong. Are you trying to protect OSAS? 13 Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul...

LOL You and Dave are focused so much on the gifts of the Spirit (that once given are never revoked,) and believe that it is those practicing the gifts that is the focus of the text and why Jesus will say to them, "I never knew you." It isn't - they are backslidden Christians who now are...

So you are saying all the interpretation from tongues resulted in Scripture?

So you, yourself, never were lead supernaturally on what to pray or heard God's voice or saw a vision or spoke in tongues, just thought others were playing 1st century church? What about when reading scripture a verse went through you with chills? (Good chills, lol)

Did you ever experience anything you thought was a gift from God?
