Why do you want to start a blind argument? Its first Corinthians 13:8-11 instead of you to acknowledge your mistake, instead you want to start up an argument...

This answers your doubt

chikason22:
Some christians don't know how to read the BIBLE With full understanding. I CORINTHIANS 13:8-10 Made us to understand that speaking in tongues of known languages not those mumu meaningless abrabrabra has ceased. It was necessary when christianity was at it infancy in order to win gentiles or unbelivers to GOD. Or to preach to people in the language they will understand. But now that the gospel has moved to different parts of the earth and the bible written in different languages, speaking in tongues has ceased. Not necessary again. If u lack wisdom to understand this, pls pray to JEHOVAH to give u one. JAMES 1VS5

Believe this or not.. But if he speaks in tongues, he is a fake pastor.... Also if you speak in tongues, you are only deceiving yourself..

That's just the absolute fact..
If you believe otherwise then you are lost..

In Nigeria People only speak in tongues for one reason only... So people see them as "highly spiritual"... Which here is all you need to scam gullible church goers.

If you think I'm lying monitor your pastors tongues. You go see pattern

Offpoint:
I remember that year I went to a Program and the invited guest speaker after preaching gave prayer points titled "Operation you must speak in tongues"

Those who can speak were asked to step backwards and those who can't forward.
That's when the whole church started prayers that lasted almost 3 hours, preacher said everyone must speaks in tongue.

After 2hrs everyone has spoken in tongues, whom I knew some fake it o...
I was the only one left o, that was how the entired church gathered around and starts bombarding me with prayers o.

30 minutes, no signs... preacher touch me, anoint me, push me, blow me breeze... no signs.
For my mind: God which can wahala be this? pity me now, even na just 5 seconds make I speak am... abi na so demons plenty for my body reach wey entire church gather for my head for over an hour and nothing show?
God abeg pity My life.

After over an hour the preacher man was like: The devil is liar, he must release you, I can see the spirit of tongues in you.
Me in my mind "You're right sir, I speak 7 languages"

After another 20 Minutes, preacher was like: See me after service.

Another questioning and prayers sessions after service o.


Tongues are mostly what Nigerians use to cover up when they ran out prayer points.

I've always question the logic of speaking a language nobody understands in church, a language not even you the speaker understands.... then what are you telling God when even you yourself don't understand?

I think the tongue of the Pentecostal Day was the only thing I found reasonable, what Nigerians are speaking is not tongues

I stopped taking them serious when I realized those who speaks in tongues, all of them individually all have one pattern they speak... you can't be telling God sake things since time immemorial.

Prayer for healing: oshe prapra robototo Mali kakobuyaya Toire

Prayer for protection: oshe prapra robototo Mali lukakukakabuyaya Toire

Prayer for Devine blessings: oshe prapra robototo Mali lukakukakabuyaya Toire

All prayer points:
oshe prapra robototo Mali lukakukakabuyaya Toire

seriously?

Funny part some said they speak in tongues to confuse the devil
Devil who was once an heavenly citizen told them he doesn't understand heavenly tongues

Shibaraba:
Ever wondered where my name came from? My own be say when you speak Interpret.else na jargons and I'll just walk out

Batam:

You are spiritually naive.
What is baptism of Holy Spirit?
I guess you are one of those wannabe that like to discredit anything that has to do with Christianity.
Repent now

AQUAMAN247:
Speaking in tongues is simply speaking in a language one has not learned. With the gift of the Holy Spirit, you can speak in an unknown tongue(language). How ever, if there’s no one there who can understand the language spoken, it’s like you are speaking into the air.
That’s why the apostles, having been commissioned to go preach the gospel to the ends of the earth, though were originally Jews and could speak just one language, could speak other tongues (earthly human language) of other tribes of the different ethnic groups who had gone to attend the festival in Jerusalem at the time. Hence the people heard the apostles speaking in their own respective native languages. This is evidenced here in (acts 2:5-12)
5 Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 6 When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. 7 Utterly amazed, they asked: “Aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans? 8 Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? 9 Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,[b] 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome 11 (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” 12 Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”
Review this and compare to our so called modern day speaking in tongues.

DropsMic:


Continue deceiving yourself then. Continue sinning against the holy spirit.. It's your life, Not mine.

DropsMic:


Has anyone ever interpreted your 'tongues'?
If your answer is no then you are a fake minister

10. Undoubtedly there are all sorts of languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.

11. If then I do not grasp the meaning of what someone is saying, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and he is a foreigner to me.

12. So it is with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, try to excel in gifts that build up the church.

13. For this reason anyone who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret what he says.

Tobechuckwu:


Now, we Christian speak in tongues, the Bible says we speak to God.

pressplay411:


May be if you stayed within context, your points will be well received.
True, the problem of most believers is lack of personal time with God, His Word and a relationship with the Holy spirit rather than just swallowing hook line and sinker every thing their pastors preach to them, even when it has been tainted with the pastor's personal motives.
The Bereans are a typical example in the scriptures. Even the Apostle Paul's teachings were verified before they accepted them.

I was just wondering what you were driving at.

DAVE5:


I learnt one very important thing from your message which is

Even apostle Paul's teaching were berries before they accepted them

Very salient point

These days; one man stands on a pulpit, says anything he likes and the congregation accept like he's all knowing cos he's a pastor

I think there's a Bible verse that says something like we should test spirit that manifest so we are sure its actually of God, can't remember exactly how it was written though but it's interpretation is something like I wrote

pressplay411:


Yes. The Bereans Acts 17:10-11
And as you pointed out, we are warned to test spirits to avoid following false doctrines. John 4:1-3
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,
3 and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

20 Points We Can Glean from 1Corinthians 14 About Speaking in Tongues in the Church are listed below:
Point #19 (Verse 30-33, 40) Orderliness should be maintained in Christian meetings.

heywhya:
I can see the ignorance of the masses about tongue and Prophecy.
Can you all do an in depth study of the book of 1Cor 14 and ask Holy Spirit to explain to you.
If you are a believer and you don't pray in Spirit, you are short changing yourself.

Professorcplus:
What is the difference between the incantations of babalawo and speaking in tongues of Christian all in the name of talking to gods. Same ni. The difference is just packaging.

Modified
There is this particular church I won't mention name but if by chance you came across them, they don't pray in men's language. The prayers must be in tongues. No prayer point o. 2hours speaking in tongue stretch. I was invited to their meeting some years back and after the sermon I was asked if I could speak in the Spirit. I replied once in a while. The guys was furious saying its meant to be always. So he said by the time he's done with me I would speak.

Okay, let watch and see. He held my hands firmly and he began. I just kept quite and he continue with some gibberish. At a point I start giving the sound some funny meaning like Bobo sote Mafo wobe comin. Before I knew it, my breath increases, my lip wanted to patted ways; a sound is about to be realised. He told me it is now speak it. I couldn't hold myself again. Finally, I released the sound full of laughter . I laugh sote eye dey push me.

Bro You are not in the right position to judge anyone.
In Act 2:1-7 expounds that Speaking in tongues comes only when you are filled with the Holy Spirit.
Forget about those people who forges theirs because God is in position to judge not you.

RemarkableMind:
Incantations are deep words. If you listen, you will understand it. I am a Yoruba man, no incantation is meaningless in in Babalawo's dairy; they have have book of incantations you can learn from, because it's legible.
Now, God is not the author of confusion! His way is plain and understanding. God bless you all!
