The founders of the BLM movement depended on spirit guides consisting of the spirits of dead victims of police brutality to guide the direction of the movement. So teaching it in schools is teaching something that originates from the Occult.

I left the Pentecostal movement in 1978, and I have been praying in tongues ever since. Leaving the Pentecostal church didn't stop me praying in tongues, because the gift I have is in the Bible, not in any church. So your Pentecostal bashing goes off me like water of a duck's back. It is...

Paul is describing his contribution to church meetings. No problem there.

i get it. So, you would have no use for any ministry gift for you wouldn't be fellowshipping in any gathering where one would be used to edify the group. If you are a "lone ranger" in that respect, the only person you would be edifying is yourself. I am different to you. I believe that it is...

But I don't pray in tongues during church services. I don't belong to a Pentecostal church where they do speak in tongues. I belong to a little Methodist/Presbyterian church with six elderly ladies and one gentleman. Tongues is totally unknown to them. I do all my praying in tongues...

Do you live in a church 24 hours a day? Is church the only place where you ever pray? Or is your Christianity only for Sundays at church? Paul certainly did not spend 24 hours a day at church meetings. When he said he spoke in tongues more than them all, he was referring to the many hours...

How do you interpret it other than unbelievers hearing the foreign languages spoken convicting them of sin, righteousness, and judgment to come? Paul seems to interpret Isaiah in relation to tongues, and Isaiah speaks of when Israelites hearing the stammering speech of the Assyrians, it signals...

He does qualify it by saying that although our weaknesses end at death, full perfection is not consummated until judgment day. By the time judgment day arrives, the perfected and glorified bride of Christ will already be with the Lord.

I said that as a type of metaphor about the way many churches treat the Holy Spirit. They either ignore Him completely in their programming of services, or they treat Him as some indeterminate mist that hovers over the meeting, but takes no real part in it. The AOG by voting out tongues, are...

I note that the crowd was made up of "devout Jews" who were still bonded into Judaism. Peter tells them that they were the ones who crucified Jesus, but God had made Him Lord and Christ. This is consistent with the Gospel being preached first to the "devout" Jews before the Holy Spirit fell...

Jesus was not talking to believers in the verse you are quoting. He is talking to unconverted Jews who were rejecting Him.

Your Scripture quotes are not about praying in tongues. Yes, I am sure that when I am praying in tongues I am praying directly to the Lord in the Spirit. The words that I speak to the Lord are guided by the Spirit, therefore, it is the Spirit who is praying through me. "For the one who...

You are correct when speaking of tongues and interpretation in church meetings, but you can't answer the question about where and when Paul spoke in tongues when he said, "I speak in tongues more than you all" because it is obvious that his tongues speaking was not during church meetings.

Plenty of man's wisdom here! Skillful manipulation of different parts of Scripture to prove a point.

Calvin has an interesting comment about that. He says that when unbelievers hear the foreign languages of tongues, they are convicted of sin, righteousness and judgment to come, but to try and hide their sense of conviction, they accuse the believers of being mad. This goes right along with...

I've looked up what Calvin said about "When that which is perfect is come". This is what he says: "Paul might have put it this way: 'When we have reached the winning-post, then the things that helped us on the course will be finished with.' But he uses the same way of expressing himself as...

If people are speaking in tongues in a public meeting without interpretation, they are going against God's Word in 1 Corinthians 14. Therefore, because the Holy Spirit will never support anything that goes against the Word that He himself inspired, you can draw the obvious conclusion about the...

Paul says that it is prophecy that edifies the church. Of course, everything that is said in a church service, when the Holy Spirit is leading the service, is prophetic. The problem is that most church services are "man-led" where the Holy Spirit is left out and expected to "bless" man's...

Where does the Book of Acts say that? What caused 3000 to be converted to Christ on the day of Pentecost was Paul preaching in his learned language, not in tongues. When the disciples spoke in tongues, they spoke of the mighty works of God, not preaching the Gospel to the crowd. It is...

"Voting out" the gift of tongues from AOG services is the height of religious arrogance. These people think they can "vote out" the Holy Spirit? Who do they think they are? No wonder there is an invasion of the occult, Hindu mind control and other spurious teaching and manifestation in their...
