You say you do not deny tongues, but the truth is, you deny tongues for YOU! (Tongues are OK for those that speak in tongues, but I don't need tongues - something like this) Note very carefully this is NOT a "denominational issue." It is a BIBLE issue! I am contending for the correct understanding of Acts 1, Acts 2, Acts 8, Acts 10, Acts 19, and 1 Cor. 14 - but mostly Paul's chapter on Tongues. I could care less what denomination one grew up in. I grew up in a church that declared that tongues (today) are of the devil. How silly could any denomination be? What you are missing: Christ is the head of the church, and it was HIS PLAN that all receive the mighty baptism in the Spirit with the evidence of praying in tongues. You may not believe this statement now, but when you meet Him, you will. I wonder - since you have never denied or confirmed: do you now believe that when someone prays in tongues they are talking to God, and not to man, because "no man understands?" Please, read that verse in every translation you can find. It is TRUTH. You are obviously not ready to receive what he has shown me, So with this, this conversation is complete. You are still lost in denominationalism, and the teachings of men. When you are done contending is when you will be ready.

They heard the Gospel in their own languages. Supernatural speaking in another language. How much of this goes on today, very little. The written Word is now in all languages.

Prophecy is equal to tongues with interpretation. However, trying to compare tongues as a prayer language with tongues to be interpreted is like comparing apples to oranges.

Tongues as a prayer language still needs to go through the Holy Spirit for interpretation with groans.... The same as any other prayers. No bypassing the Holy Spirit. No special given gift.

In Christ Montana Marv No, it is the Holy Spirit CREATING the prayer, passing that prayer through the human spirit to the mouth to be spoken (talking to God, not to man - for no man understands) and then God the Father hearing and answering. The speaker in tongues has no idea what the Holy Spirit prayed. He or she may have thought they were praying for their new Cadillac, but in reality was probably praying about sin in their life! On the other hand, prayers in our own learned language goes through our MIND and understanding: we know what we are praying when we use our learned language. A prayer in tongues is not understood. See 1 Cor. 14:2. It is supernatural speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
