    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    Listen carefully. If peter and all the jews spoke the same hebrew dialects, then there would have been no need for him to speak in the gift of tongues so that they could understand it. If He could speak their Hebrew Dialect, and there were many there, that day, then they would not have...

    "Other tongues". "other foreign languages" that you have never learned. This is not a "prayer language" that some have and is for self edifying. "groanings that can't be uttered". '''""""In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the...

    They were amazed that they heard him in their "own" language" He was speaking it, because that is the "gift" "tongues'. 1.) Being able to speak in a foreign language that you never learned, because you are dealing with a listener who can't understand your language. So, God gives the "gift of...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    By discernement. Its the only manifestation. Notice that "tongues are for a sign, and signs are for the Jews". You are not a Jew. You are not an apostle in the 1st Century who has the "signs of a JEWISH apostle".. (They were all Jews). So, as i was trying to help you understand. THere is a...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    That is the Holy Spirit being given to them. This is the power of the Holy Spirit. That is the empowering for service. That is the "CALL of God" on the person. So, one is the receiving and one is the em-power-ing for service. Here is the other part of Paul's teaching on the Gifts. He says...

    Nobody "interpreted" during Pentecost. They didnt have to, as Peter was speaking in their Language. "gift of TONGUES".. "tongues" = Languages.

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    There is no "gift of Hearing". You just made that up, but actually you were taught that idea. Its not scriptural. Peter spoke in Tongues, because He has the "Signs of an Apostle." They that heard him, didn't have a gift of spiritual hearing. Notice the 9 Gifts of the Spirit? Where is...

    First filling, 2nd filling, 234th filling, ... is all the concept of the pentecostal movement, and is not scriptural. Some, many, are born again, and never receive a prayer language. You can go right now to Acts 8, and read the case of the Eunuch, who was born again, and he never spoke in any...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    The Apostles had already received the Holy Spirit in John 20:22 when Jesus gave it to them. That was before Pentecost. What they received at Pentecost was the anointing or the empowering for the ministry. Specifically what the Apostles received were the "signs of an Apostle", 2 Corinthians...

    Tongues ( 'sign' gifts ) did/did not cease?

    That is a prayer language. That is not the "gift of Tongues" The "Gift" is described in Acts 2, when the Jews say..>>"we hear Peter speaking in OUR Language" and there were many different dialect there, that day. There is your "gift of TONGUES"... = foreign language.

    "through the power of the Holy Spirit" is how God empowers the believer. Or as Paul teaches...... 1.) "I can do all things THROUGH Christ". 2.) "Christ always gives me the Victory". See those? That is the Power of the Holy Spirit, doing that through Paul, and through all believers, as long...

    What is : imputed Righteousness

    Hell and the Lake of Fire were created before Adam was Created. They were created for the"" Devil and His angels" They, "hell and the Lake of Fire" are a part of the wrath that awaits a human, that is shown in this verse. John 3:36 and that wrath, has no end.

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    Being born again, is not human reasoning. Its a divine act that is caused by the Holy Spirit., and can't be undone by your behavior. There is also the fact that a Christian can't become an "Ex" Christian. You can't stop being born again, and being born again is the only real proof that a...

    God the Holy Spirit. See, to be born again.. .is to be born again Spiritually, not physically, or mentally. "God is A Spirit"... The HOLY Spirit, and the Holy Spirit births our spirit into God, who is "A Spirit". See that? That is to be 'Born again" Spiritually. Water Baptism can't do that...

    Paul isn't wrong. He gave you the Doctrine for the Church. Its Paul's epistles that show you how to choose deacons, bishops, pastors, ect. So, He gave us the rule book on how to choose these offices, and regarding the office of a PASTOR, .. one of the qualifications is : HUSBAND....... of one...

    So, the HS told you that all men are full of hatred and are unfair? That's interesting. And, He told you that all women are pure, and only love the good , the true, and the holy,???? or was He silent regarding the nature of a "woman". If so, you should ask Him to update you. Here is what...

    A woman can't be the Husband of one wife, although in this twisted world of "crazy rights" and insane political correctness, im sure there are so called christians who would argue that "well if 2 women are married, then one is the husband". So, sure, all the flakes are not in the cereal box and...

    They are damned already. John 3:36. Unbelievers (never born again) dont realize that they are damned already. This is one of the reasons that Jesus says that "you must be born again" as if we are not, then we remained DAMNED, and then we die and face it for eternity. Hell begins it and there...
