Owopariola001:
Was he wrong?

Is there any other historical book with a history that has an earlier timeline of speaking in different tongues other than the Bible?

And by the way, his statement is about the story of "The Tower of Babel."

I wonder how y'all claimed to be "Christians" but ignorance, hatred, and bias made you forget your Book of Genesis 11:1–9

It is also a shame that many people don't even know that "Tongue" can be used synonymously as "Language."

If you can't use your brain, the joke is on you.
then why did he not say we inherited "different tongues" instead.

Bro, why are you dodging my challenge? I dare you to trace Tinubu's gaffe to any source.

You use Speaking in Tongues of acts, I have dismantled it and told you why it's blasphemous using it to defend Tinubu.

You use Tower of Babel, I told you why it's not even related with proof. And even if we agree for the sake of argument that it's related, then it'll be blasphemous as the symbol of Babel is confusion and disunity. That's why it's "Confusion of Tongues". But it isn't even related as linking Speaking in Tongues with Confusion of Tongues is in itself blasphemous because the Holy Spirit is the one responsible for gifting it. He doesn’t gift 'disunity'

So whichever way you look at it, Tinubu goofed. Most are now avoiding Babel after they read my point and tried to justify Speaking in Tongues of the New Testament. But even that, they can't defend as it's gifted, not Inherited. And the speakers speak in the language they don't understand. The language can be Heavenly understood only by God or human language, understood only by God and the owners of the language. However, the speakers themselves by definition would not understand what they're speaking.

This is a simple matter. You can also verify it. Have you seen anyone disprove my points citing any reputable source?

No. They're only insulting me and making wild claims that have no basis in scripture.


Was the man not talking about unity and brotherhood with his biblical references?

See how confused you are with your driveby ITK?

This rubbish doesn't even make sense, it has nothing to do with what the man said, you are just trolling and making up your own argument just to make yourself relevant or hear yourself talk.

The man's assertions remain about unity and brotherhood, we understand what he said and the context so your endless rants have nothing to do with anything, you obviously did not watch the video.

It matters not what rejoinders or rebuttals others are giving to your know-all postings. That’s not our concern here!
Point is….you forget that The Tower of Babel (like most biblical narratives in the mould of Adam & Eve depiction) was only an allegory and not necessarily an actual event! What the story is meant to depict is what you fail to comprehend!
Think about it….before insisting on the semantics linked with “humanity speaking in different tongues”….yet having one goal of ascending into the spiritual realm, which is their Paradise!

Going about in circles and dodging my challenge. You're now attacking biblical stories, the entire Bible has been dismissed as fairytale. In fact, going by this, languages, according to various scientific and linguistic sources predated the Bible. That's a topic for another day.

The subject matter is Tinubu and his "Speaking in Tongues" gaffe. Show me any reputable source that linked it to the Babel story. That's the challenge. The etymology is online. Collocation and contexts are online. I don’t enjoy regurgitating same thing over and over again.

Please show me any source linking them or pick your "L" and move on like others.

What do you want me to disprove? That there's no connection between Speaking in tongues and the Babel?

Is it not the Babel they use in the bible reflects the dangerous effects of speaking in tongues so how are they not related?

I have repeated this over and over again. What happened in Babel is "Confusion of Tongues". I have been hammering on the linguistic terms "collocation" and "context" and there are reasons why.

I have been practical too. "Speaking in Tongues" in biblical context is a phrase. It's not just a random combination of words. But a collocation of words to convey a specific meaning.

There's a reason no one links the phrase to Tower of Babel. There's a reason when you mention it in a Christian gathering, no one would think about Tower of Babel. I even challenged you all, if you doubt, prove me wrong. Nothing.

You just make wild claims without any proof whatsoever. Tower of Babel symbolises confusion and disunity. It's called "Confusion of Tongues".

Speaking in Tongues is also Gifts of Tongues in biblical context. The phrase was abused and there's NO amount of rantings can change that.

I am still challenging you to prove me wrong citing relevant authorities.

This is not a debate sir. You're being lectured, that's the honest truth. I have dismantled your points, posed a challenge. You haven't dismantled mine neither have you provided answers to my question. So what's the debate here?

You are talking about scripture, yet no single proof either from the scripture or scriptural vaults.

You just make baseless, wild claims and expect me to accept when there are biblical points and references on ground? Your colleague is even saying speaking in Tongues disunites people. Just imagine the kind of people I am conversing with

There you go bro you do not actually have understanding about where peter Obi is coming from.
I tell you for free if Peter Obi climbs any Podium and release his planned solution to a better governance and his preferred economic policies bro you and I will love him even more to want to vote nothing but Obi cos those are the things that would release the country from the shackles of this old greedy politicians hence the political elites would fight dirty on him not to become.

These crooks don't care to list all manner of palatable solutions just to turn your heads only to get the power and do whatever they like because they have no integrity. just like they promised 1USD to 1Naira,….You see am naa you see what it is today abi? bro make una no deh make person vex.

This na why una deh complain of Obidients say dem unruly why wont they be? see bro you can support your APC candidate but trying to defend or promote APC is so provoking hence the unruly attack on you straight up.

No most so called obidients are actually very unruly and unreasonable. Take this forum for Instance, they always try to guilt trip the mods by accusing them of supporting Tinubu and atiku once the topics do not make front page but keep quiet if their topics are able to make it to the FP. There's so so much more that it will be ridiculous to start listing but I will never généralisé them as there's actually some reasonable folks in the mix.

I keep repeating that there was nothing so special about PO as governor that makes him above average.

Where exactly is PO coming from? Someone that preaches what he doesn't do?

When is he going to release the plans. It's clear that he has none because he was asked several times and couldn't come up with anything coherent.

I said that because you blasphemed by saying Speaking In Tongues means disunity. I prayed He forgive you and have mercy on you (maybe I shouldn't have used soul). It's not an insult, but an honest prayer.
