You show zero due respect to God's word!"The gift of tongues" like gift of faith, words of wisdom, knowledhe etc refers specifically to the meetings-use (giving to the church) of what all all Christians already have for private use.
What a faith stealing statement! All those that do not speak in tongues are not of the church because ALL christians already have tongues for private use? If no lie is of the truth, then by what spirit are you speaking from? Sounds like the spirit of error to me, bro. Either reword that statement or explain how when one is born again, it is not received as the world sees it, but you will know Him for He dwelleth in you and shall be in you.John 3:6That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof,
but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. John 14:16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; 17Even the Spirit of truth;
whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.Signs follow believers. Believers are not to follow signs. Signs are for unbelievers. So are tongues as a sign.1 Corinthians 14:20Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. 21In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. 22Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. 23If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? 24But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: 25And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.And yet believers are calling for the Holy Spirit as if He is not in them and so what kind of a report is that? A lie and not of the faith.2 Corinthians 13: 5Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?Psalm 19: 12Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. 13Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression. 14Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.Colossians 3: 16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.2 Timothy 2: 14Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. 15Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 16But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.Matthew 6: 5And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. 7But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.So what need is there for a prayer language gained not by way of Jesus Christ?
......is a miraculous unlearned prayer language for speaking to God, not to men (1 Cor. 14:2, 4)"we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." (Romans 8:26)
Groanings which cannot be uttered means no sound, brother. Itself in referring to the Holy Spirit as being the means by which He passively or indrectly makes intercessions for us by just being in us as the Comforter thus Jesus as He searches the hearts and knows the mind of the Spirit fulfills the role of the ONLY Mediator between God and man in according to the will of God.Romans 8:27And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God....confirmed in verse 34 further down..Romans 8:34Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.1 Timothy 2: 5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;Jesus really meant what He said here...John 14:6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.John 10: 1Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.So the Holy Spirit isn't a mediator between us and Jesus or God lest Jesus described Him as a thief by His words, which the Holy Spirit isn't and thus there is no prayer language other than the one gained in the world by the rudiment of seeking another spirit to receive.John 10: 7Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. 8All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. 9I am the door: .John 10: 4And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.1 John 4:3And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 4Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. 1 John 4: 1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world....1 Timothy 4: 1Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;So are you sure you did not gain tongues of the world by going after it not by way of Jesus Christ?2 Corinthians 11: 1Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. 2For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. Time to discern the tongues and test the spirits, brother, so that your faith may stand apart from the rudiment already found in the world. Thst is a requirement to be found abiding in Hin and in keeping the faith which is the good fight.
That's wht ALL spoke in tongues when they received God's Spirit.If you have never spoken in tongues you are still "in the flesh", "in sin", unwashed etc.
Yep. Sounds like giving everyone cause to fake tongues. Not everyone spoke in tongues. even Paul said that. Another error! Heed the word of God or just what you are reading inbetween the lines?1 Corinthians 14: 5I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying. So throughout the whole chapter of seeking spiritual gifts, Paul exhorted the gift of prophesy to seek after over all spiritual gifts including tongues as he goes on to explain why as tongues by itself is not a stand alone gift. Why exhort prophesy over tongues unless all do not speak in tongues? There would be no need for contrast, brother.Please discern the words you use.. in preaching tongues as well as the babblings of tongues. Would God give a talent and bury it, thus mimicking prayer language already found in the world? No. And the necessity of praying in tongues is moot because God the Father knows even before we ask so why would the Holy Spirit in us say anything?Thus another spirit is coming inbetween believers and that is what they get for departing from the faith in Jesus Christ. The solution is to narrow the way back to the straight gate. calling on Jesus to deliever you from presumptuous sins that have taken dominion over you because you allowed it by departing from the faith of Christ.
