Evercurious:Have you ever heard anyone interprets it? NO Why does everyone wants to speak, but no one has asked for the spirit of interpretation? Why are there more speakers than interpreter? 2 Likes |

Offpoint: YES Oga.I have. Are you a baby Christian? So sorry I had to ask. Desire it and you ll have it and not have no need to doubt it It's so wonderful and sweet to be in gatherings where the gifts of the spirits are all at work. People speak in tongues but do not have an idea that they COULD be passing a message to someone in need of it. Someone with the gift of interpretation of tongues ,interpretes the tongues and the message is understood. If you have nt been or are nt in such gatherings pls find one and you ll enjoy the Holy Spirit and His gifts at work.. |

I SPEAK IN TONGUES AND I LIKE IT. IT MAKES ME TO BE CONNECTED TO GOD AND BE MORE SPIRITUAL WHEN I'M PRAYING IN TONGUES. I DIDN'T LEARN IT, IT JUST HAPPENED WHEN I GOT BORN AGAIN NEWLY, I WAS SINGING AND PRAISING GOD ONE DAY AND IMMEDIATELY MY VOICED CHANGED AND I BEGAN TO SPEAK IN AN UNKNOWN TONGUE. |

Evercurious:Did anyone confirmed the interpretation was correct? I have a lot gifts I can ask God for, speaking in today's tongue is not one of them. Cause anything aside from the pentecostal tongues of preaching the gospel to others in their own tongue is of no use to me. 1 Like |

Evercurious: So what will you say concerning 1 Cor 14:27-28 If it edifies you, please speak it in your privacy. The church should edify each other, that's why if there is no one to interpret, they should keep quiet. They is a place in the Bible where Jesus himself admonished the disciples to pray to God quietly and not as show offs the way the pharasies behave. To me, speaking abi shouting in tongues is just show off 2 Likes |

Emax911:The big problem you have is the you leave your spiritual aspects in the of so called pastor rather you pick up your Bible and from cover to cover. They will be telling you holy spirit before you understand a book acclaimed to be Book of God |

Buliwyf: I really feel sorry for you. How can you be explaining a spiritual exercise using a physical approach. Abeg study these scriptures in-depth? 1 Corinthians 1:27 Rom 8:26-30 1corintians 14 : 2-5 You are simply wise in your own eyes which is dangerous. Feel free to insult me but you can’t hide the truth about the power of speaking in tongues. |

Youngzedd: I believe speaking in tongues has been misinterpreted and badly contextualized in the Christian fold and such the seeming resistance and unacceptance. My submissions are these 1. Speaking in tongues is but one of the gifts of the Holy Spirits. Unfortunately people attribute it to the (only) evidence of the holy spirit in a person. 2. Speaking in tongues is not the absolute, neither is it the most important gifts of the spirit according to Paul's exposition to the Corinthian Church. In fact in Chapter 12:31; 14:1-5, Paul equated the gift of prophesy as more valuable to the church than speaking in tongues; and encourage them to prophesy more than speaking in tongues 3. The Holy Spirit enables these gifts and manifestation of it according to his own will and purposes. The Holy Spirit MAY NOT ENABLE YOU TO SPEAK IN TONGUES. This does not mean you do not have the Holy Spirit in you 4. The argument of self edification as an advantage of speaking in tongues holds true but Paul used it in a comparative context with the edification of the Church which Prophesy provides the benefit of. Of all these argues, these gifts would be USELESS if we do not allow it to work out in us the FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT - Galatians 5:22-23 3 Likes 1 Share |

Evercurious:We are just going back and forth. You've provided no counter argument to my assertion's. Perhaps you have not given the matter much thought. Just think and ask yourself this question 'Does my speaking in tongues edify me and others?' I'll leave you with your opinion. Cheers 1 Like |
