the reason for this my question is as a result of a lady that i met she said she wanted to teach or train me how to be speaking in tongue, so i was disturbed on whether speaking in tongues is gift from God or they receive training as claimed by this lady.

So bible scholars, share your opinion on this because she is seriously disturbing me.
when next you meet her, tell her to teach you so you'll see the sense behind it and what informs her the language she uses. Then bombard her with questions. Don't chase her away please.

The current speaking in tongue is an occultic language which can not be understood by anybody including the speakers. Oyahkilome use it to sing sef.

Trainable.
Let's stop pretending.
Most so called speaking in tongue are repetitive Hebrew language.
Yep, very hard to believe.

run away from her run and run that's a familiar spirit..The gift of speaking in tongues is a gift of the spirit and u make utterances as led by th spirit..Listen up if u are not baptised with holyspirt u can not speak in tongues if she teaches u without telling u to get baptised she is operating with a familiar spirt.the gift of tongues is an evidence of holyspirt please and please don't get trained on it receive the holyspirt and the evidence of it would follow.. acts 2 vs 4 says when they were filled with holy ghost they began to speak in tongues not that they were trained to..u don't train for what is a gift..u can only stir it up

Yes, it is the gift of the holy spirit as seen on the day of pentecost.

But you see, brother, what is done today, the speaking of unknowledgeable words is pure nonsense and wasn't what was done then.

Unless you want to explain the meaning of rashidi yekini yamaha wa ka susuki from a preacher's mouth.

When people spoke in tongues in ancient times, they spoke one language and people from different cultural backgrounds, languages, and heritage, understood them.

Suppose Paul was in a Hebrew land (with non-Hebrew visitors from around) and spoke Hebrew, of the gift of the spirit, the Greeks, people of Corinth, people of Ephesus, Igbos, Ijaws, Yorubas, etc., understood him! They weren't speaking nonsense! The gift allowed them spread the message far and beyond language barriers...not speaking ecstatic pronouncements of gibberish.

Now I ask you, is what that was done then the same with what we hear and see today?


Have a nice century.
But when they were speaking in tongues it was only understood by the 12 of them , and no outsider understood it.
That's communication with the HOLY SPIRIT and no other man should understand it

I agree with you.


Don't forget they learn Hebrew language.
You see some repetitive stuffs pastors say?
That's Hebrew and can be as simple as you are blessed, receive it etc.

If you have been watching Hebrew movies, you will automatically know when they switch to Hebrew

They teach that in Bible school. You must learn how to speak simple Hebrew language. It's language of the spirit according to them.
A pastor opened up about this. He attended Bible school 2 yrs in Canada.

Speaking in tongues is a gift and a proof of when you're genuinely baptized with the Holy Ghost and Fire (filled with the holy spirit)

Speaking in tongues is not saying rubbish or saying gibberish, a person that is baptized with the Holy Ghost will see the signs by speaking in a new tongue of a language spoken here on earth and if there's anyone from the country around they will clearly understand what you're saying howbeit it's just for a lil while ( when the disciples where filled with the holy spirit they spoke a new tongue and the act 2:5-12 ) in this chapter different people from different tribes where present in Jerusalem then and each man heard them speaking in their own language. This phenomenon also happened in 1906 the azusa Street revival (you can Google it, it is on Wikipedia too) same thing that happend to the disciples in the upper room happened to these people in 1906 in Los Angeles. So speaking in tongues is not saying rubbish like rekereke raka lababosh mangibu Santoribo blah blah blah it is speaking in a defined language. I could remember a time like that. A woman from my church a very old woman and a stark illiterate, when she was filled with the holy spirit she spoke fluent queens English. The founder of the Apostolic faith church, Mrs Florence Crawford, she was present at that azusa Street revival in 1906 when she was filled with the holy spirit she spoke fluent Chinese. So if you're genuinely baptized you'll speak a different language that you have never learnt and you'll speak it fluently that anyone from such country will understand all you say. Thank you

Read acts 2 from Vs 5. Several people from different countries understood what the disciples where saying. They each heard them speaking in their language.

It's wrong, not biblical. Speaking in tongue is a gift from God.

Act2:38

Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit

That lady must be from Christ embassy. They are the ones going about with claims of teaching of how to speak In tongues. Far back my uni days, that's how they disturbed the life out of me.

As far as Christianity is concerned, it's a gift. That's why it suprises me when some churches claim to teach people how to speak in tongues. There are also some people that when they want to pray, they will say ijn, and the next thing they are already speaking in tongues till the end of the prayer sad And I'll be like, why not kakuma say the ijn in tongues too. It's just sad that a lot of churches and individuals have made mockery of it. Imagine attending such a church, and everyone around you is speaking in tongues, e go come be like say na you be satan. That experience can lead someone to unnecessarily question his/her faith.

Is a gift and some people mistook the gibberish you hear in gospel music or churches as speaking in tongues. Nah.

Take a Nigerian that has never been to China speaking or praying in Chinese that's what the real speaking in tongue is and not the ayacha bu Kalila humomomo you hear in gospel music or churches dis days.

It says you speak in another language does "ayacha bu Kalila humomomo" have meaning to you? Hell no. So am very correct with whatever am saying or thinking.

That is not only the case oga. Read the Bible very well to fully understand the gift of the speaking in tongues. It's not necessarily a language that people understand as it was on the day of pentecost, rather it's even the contrary. So don't be quick to condemn what people are doing now as not speaking in tongues. Read the book of 1st Corinthians 14 especially verses 1 and 2 so you can understand better. I'll quote verse 2 here for you, See the bolded:

" For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him ; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries."

Mr man, if that is the case that speaking in tongues always mean a human language like Chinese then explain what Apostle Paul means in 1 Corinthians 14:2, quoted here for you.

" For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him ; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries."

I've asked you to explain what Apostle Paul means in 1 Corinthians 14:2 but you're running away from that. I thought you're very confident with your explanation of the gift of speaking in tongues. You should pray earnestly for the Holy Spirit baptism as someone advised you instead of condemning what is a mystery to you.
