Look at all the kids killing kids today. They are desensitized.

@stunnedbygrace Did you ever wonder if it is not you at all, but them? Maybe you just aren't into shallow conversations, and the deeper things you are interested in just goes over their head, so you feel you don't fit in. Dear, you're bored. I know a lot about that, myself. I'm so heavenly...

The gift of interpretation of tongues has been used by the Holy Spirit to draw unbelievers. It is not required for our prayer language, but Paul says to pray for the gift of interpretation anyway. The Messages from God must always be interpreted, but though our prayer language is not required to...

I didn't, but I know the difference between Mark 16 and 1 Cor. 12. and that is only direction. Mark 16 - TO God. (prayer or praise for use of the individual) 1 Cor. 12 - FROM God. (messages for the profit of all requiring interpretation)

What do you believe tongues are anyway? Gibberish? No, other languages. But no languages understood on the Day of Pentecost. That is where you are reading the story incorrectly. The disciples were not SPEAKING their language The devout Jews each HEARD their language. Not only was the speaking...

From what you've said, I thought you were one or the other. But if neither, then, no, I don't know what you believe.

First, I would like to know if you are full preterist, or partial preterist?

@Earburner what about the plagues

We are commanded to not grieve or quench the Spirit, so we should stay in the Spirit. That is actually within our power, so I choose to stay put. Because I can hear His voice and love it, I am constantly listening. I really don't have many years left, so it is probably that I find it more...

6 These have power to shut heaven, so that no rain falls in the days of their prophecy; and they have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they desire. How can they be John the Baptist and Jesus?

Can you think of a supernatural gift of the Spirit that would allow someone to understand speaking in tongues? Well, if you can, you are on you way to understanding how each person heard all of the disciples (them) speaking his own language (like a choir), when in reality, no man (naturally)...

No one is saying tongues are not a language. Of course it is language. God created all languages. But when spoken, no man understands it. 1 Corinthians 14:2 is the rule.

Tongues are languages. Neither ability of speaking in tongues (Mark 16 or 1 Cor. 12) is understood by man. They can only be understood by the supernatural gift of interpretation of tongues. God gave that gift to the devout Jews. That is how they understood in their own languages.

I do not see three, but just the two. Mark 16:16-18 (prayer language that can be interpreted as on the Day of Pentecost, but it is not a requirement. These are TO God. They were heard praising God.) 1 Corinthians 12 (messages FROM God, that require interpretation, and the Spirit uses it...

It pointed to our rest in Jesus. Are you really going to keep the facsimile, or graduate to the real thing?

When you walk in the Spirit, we aren't committing sin in the first place.

Read Acts 2 again. They all heard THEM speaking their own language. One heard THEM speaking his language, another heard THEM speaking his own language. It was like a choir. Each HEARD (gift of interpretation) their own language. What I think is rude is people being rude to GOD, trying to change...

HE WAS THE SUPERNATURAL INTERPRETER! Good grief, don't you know that is how the gift of interpretation works? 1 Cor. 14:2 says no man understands tongues. The one speaking in tongues wasn't speaking HIS LANGUAGE. It could have been anything, but the one receiving the gift of interpretation HEARS...

They received interpretation. Tongues spoken with no interpretation is a no no.
