Only to you, but it is the reason for the separate gift of interpretation.

Indeed, the Dave version. It is the reason for the separate gift of interpretation.

"understanding is unfruitful" means the MIND is not edified. But it says their spirit is edified - built up.

Where in Acts 2 is someone speaking in their own language, and listeners hear in theirs? I don't see the gift of interpretation found in scripture to understand the tongues of man. I'm not saying, that God wouldn't allow that kind of miracle, but just no example of such.

The scriptures actually says that without interpretation, the speaker's SPIRIT is edified, but they do NOT have understanding in their MIND. Why can't you believe what it says, that to be edified is not just with the mind? We've gone over this before. 13 Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue...

No, God doesn't contradict His word in such a way. Tongues are not for the purpose of being understood by man. that is a common myth from human reasoning. That is very clear in 1 Corinthians 12-14, especially 14:2. The tongues spoken on the Day of Pentecost were supernaturally spoken, AND...

Yes, that was the whole purpose of John The Baptist's ministry that prepared the way to Christ.

I agree. All I'm saying is God sovereignly allowed them to interpret the tongues to draw them to Christ and repentance.

Exactly. That is why they were referred to as "devout" Jews. They belonged to God already and being called. What others "heard" was gibberish and thought they were drunk. My thoughts on who those were is they were Romans or other Gentiles that the gospel was not yet for. But I do not believe...

The cup of the New Testament represented the sinless blood of Jesus, thus red and unfermented - new wine.

The Psalm is good, but the writing line work would get criticized on Ink Master as not being precise. It may look better in a few days when the swelling and redness heals.

Better an insect than a black mamba!

Ghost hunting has been in vogue for about 20 years, and even more so each year. It is no wonder the number of possessions as they open the door to Satan and his minions.

I'll read it when I have time. It seems long, plus other blogs to read "first." I am posting this to bookmark the thread.

I like them. Thanks for pointing them out.

What does answered prayer have to do with allegories? Do you know how to receive 100% answered prayer? By abiding in Him, and His RHEMAS abiding in you.

Obedience. James 2:19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see...

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. 16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? 17 Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good...

Right! 1 John 3:21-24 21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. 22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. 23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the...

What do you consider to be actual belief in Jesus seeing as the demons believe and tremble? You do what comes naturally. There is no struggle in doing what you want. A non-Christian will want to sin, and will do so naturally according to their carnal nature. A Christian will want to be...
