You said the speaker in tongues understood what they were saying. No! Only understood by the supernatural gift of interpretation of tongues. The verses proved that. You must have misread them. 2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however...

No, it is you who are judging Charismatics, because you aren't one. Charismatics believe all of the Bible, you don't, even though out of the other side of your mouth you say the Bible is the Perfect - and not heaven.

Yes.

how old are you?

I appreciate your change in the OSAS to OSASIS. I once changed it to OTSAS - Once truly saved, always saved, but even then some can suddenly lose a child or be in a tremendous trial that they begin to blame God, and never recover. So I now say, we must endure to the end. That is scriptural. At...

Ministers. Look at the context. 4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal? Teachers receive a stricter judgment. James 3:1

Well, verse 21 had nothing to do with tongues, but the Jews rejection of Jesus. It is the type of sign that is being alluded to, one compared to the sign of Jesus. If you will compare Luke 2:35 and 1 Corinthians 14:25 the type of sign is revealed. Luke 2:35b "that the thoughts of many hearts...

So what do you believe was the purpose of the Greek Corinthians to speak in tongues with no Jews around?

This is the post I want to re-answer. You say mainline churches do not match the description because of gifts, but I say Reformation false doctrine matches the most. The verse has nothing to do with gifts, but because of this quote from Luther: "No sin can separate us from Him, even if we were...

You are just as wrong this time, as you were the last time and I proved it. You just don't believe scripture when it is presented on a silver platter.

What do the Greeks in Corinth speaking in tongues have to do with Israel? That is not a direct correlation as you wrongly suppose, even though your theory didn't originate with you, but points to the TYPE of SIGN tongues is. So try again. (I'm going to reanswer a previous post of yours already...

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!

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.
