Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 9:05am On Feb 23, 2012 |
The Pentecostals are a sorry bunch I'll tell you. Why don't they ever imitate the mighty rushing wind in Acts chapter 2, or the cloven tongues of fire? Why do they only imitate speaking in tongues? And by the way, and this might surprise you--no one spoke in tongues in Acts 2 at Pentecost! http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Pentecostal/madness.htm So why the mumbo jumbo speaking in tongues when it was never recorded in the bible? why living a lie? |

The apostles spoke in tongues after Jesus ascended. Jesus said when He goes He will send the Comforter to be with us. The Comforter is the Holy Spirit and that is why we are able to speak in tongues as Christians filled with the Holy Spirit. But of course I dont expect you to understand this cos it is not giving to everybody to understand, only the children of the kingdom can understand it. Jesus said you dont give what is holy to dogs, otherwise the dogs will trample upon it and turn to attack you. You just cant help but expose your folly. You know nothing about the Bible and here you are trying to talk about the contents of our Holy Book. If you have nothing else to do and u are bored why not go to bed. |

@op What do you say about this? Acts 19:6 6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 9:25am On Feb 23, 2012 |
FXKing2012: you are a shame on Christianity i tell ya! Wow! i wonder what other learned christians will think about your hurried write up without settling down to think it through. If they spoke in an unknown tounge, why were they understood? why did the different races represented there understood what they were saying? ask yourself that and rephrase your dumb argument. |

1 Corinthians 14:2 2 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. Acts 19:5-7 5 When they heard [this], they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid [his] hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. 7 And all the men were about twelve. 1 Corinthians 14:18 18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: Pls go back to childrens church so you can be properly schooled in the things of the spirit. |

Joagbaje: did you see the title of the topic? Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 9:32am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Azibalua: You who dont even know what spirit means. It is still a mystery to you because you can't explain what you believe in. But this is reality, creating a false doctrine. It pains me to see people behaving like idiots, mumbling mad words an sounding uncouth. But focus on the tile of the topic: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! So i've shown you where people spoke in Known tongues, now show me clearly where people spoke with unknown tongues, not with tongues (without the unknown) |

1 Corinthians 14:2 2 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. 1 Corinthians 14:18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 1 Corinthians 14:14 14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by LordReed(m): 9:44am On Feb 23, 2012 |
@diluminati Read I Corinthians 14 before you expose your ignorance and venom. It is clear that there are divers types of "tongues" and it is also clear you have an agenda not to learn truth. |

@joag i like this scripture you quoted, that is why i am careful about some christian sites/blogs discussing things they have little but "theological" understanding of the scriptures. Joagbaje: |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by TeeJay6(m): 9:46am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Joagbaje:Sir, I commend you for having the patience to respond to the poster; it is obvious he/she is all out to condemn anything and everything christianity. So much so that he/she trawls the internet for any article that aligns with or supports her morbid hatred for christianity/church. This latest attempt just goes to show how uninformed and desperate she is; quoting scriptural references without any sort of understanding of the context it was made. I'll rather leave her type to keep trying to "kick against the pricks" knowing fully well that the same fate that befell Paul would one day(I pray) be hers, And just for good measures read Isa. 28:11 |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 9:46am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Carefully notice that no one in the Old Testament spoke in tongues. In Acts chapter 9 we read of Saul's conversion (later to be called, Paul, the Apostle). There is no mention of him speaking in tongues as an initial evidence of salvation. A Samaritan woman (the woman at the well) was saved in John chapter 4; but we don't see any Biblical record of her speaking in tongues. But have you ever asked yourself why Paul wrote this only to the carnal church in corinth? and secondly did paul declare it as a standard, a must for all y'all christians to follow? |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by FXKing2012(m): 9:49am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Seriously are u really this daft or you are just pretending to be in order to seek attention? Again, if you dont know the Bible, pls dont talk about it cos it makes u look very stooopid. The Bible verses below talk about speaking in unknown tongues, now pls shut it and stop exposing your folly in here. 1 Corinthians 14:14 14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 1 Corinthians 14:2 2 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 think we are giving her too much attention and she's really enjoying it. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 9:51am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Lord_Reed: Tee_Jay: dont be sentimental about it guys. dont you have your reasoning caps on? Look at the title again: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! If paul wrote that letter to the carnal church in corinth explaining some doctrines to them, does it mean there is some evidence that it was recorded people spoke in an unknown tongue? Try and get my drift here! |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by FXKing2012(m): 9:52am On Feb 23, 2012 |
diluminati: Now she's trying to derail it cos she knows her stupidity has been made public. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by TeeJay6(m): 9:53am On Feb 23, 2012 |
diluminati:The only thing i get here is that you are drifting into heresy and perdition |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by victorazy(m): 9:54am On Feb 23, 2012 |
@ Poster, u must be a Jehovah witness member. Speaking in tongue is of two types (1) Speaking in foreign languages that u have never heard or spoke before "but general languages like English, French etc" has taken care of that. (2) Speaking on unknown tongue, a language that even you don't understand. This type is used to permit God to dismantle any unknown calamity in ur way or around u. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by purefella(m): 10:00am On Feb 23, 2012 |
@poster are you sure your bible hadn't been edited?? maybe you are reading a yet to come 2020 bible version ?? |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 10:00am On Feb 23, 2012 |
FXKing2012: hmmm i never knew christians could be this violent and insultive. yay! 1 Corinthians 14:14 This is what you use to justify speaking in mumbo jumbos. hmmm. Do you know paul is just like any other pastor that can make mistakes? you know paul is not your God or Jesus Christ, so stop hammering on what he wrote to the carnal church in corinth and face reality, you numb dumb. Like i said theres is no where in the bible it is recorded that people spoke in unknown tongues. The Apostles spoke in the language, the different races of people could understand. The whole idea of me posting this is this: The Apostles spoke in tongues people could understand, so they can talk to them about salvation and righteousness. It was a gift but it wasnt the means to an end. But today its a different parade all together, Charismatc and deluded Pentecostal see it as end. They rabble useless and meaningless words which no one understands and in delusion they think they speak in mysteries. But the main purpose of speaking in tongues as rightly pointed out by Peter and the Apostles (Not Paul) was to bring people into the fold, show them righteousness and show them the light. But hey, whats the nonsense we see nowadays. still carnal as the church in corinth. No wonder Paul severed ties with Peter. But one question, have your speaking in mumbo jumbo ever brought anyone to light as the Apostles did? |

make una leave this girl jare, She is just doing her best to promote her belief even as her name suggest 'diluminati'. Sometyns are just not for babes (kids)!!! |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by denitro(m): 10:14am On Feb 23, 2012 |
The poster is right, Speaking in tongues is the easiest of God's gift for satan to imitate. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Skywalker5(m): 10:14am On Feb 23, 2012 |
I am a christian and the idea of speaking in tongues baffles me a lot. I use to think speaking in tongues was speaking a different language other than your mother tongue. Yet i am yet to hear people speak in tongues in other foreign languages. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 10:14am On Feb 23, 2012 |
[size=18pt]"Tongues" simply means "Languages" in the Bible[/size] |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by ayoade2: 10:15am On Feb 23, 2012 |
If you need this gift, all you need do is wait patiently in prayer and stay in faith. Looking for a good reason to convince yourself that the gift is not real because you dont have it after all efforts(and you dont really need to make any effort to have it because it is given freely), is not healthy for your spiritual progress. I have just prayed for you because I am already sensing a subtle satanic deceit leading you towards apostasy. because when you start doubting obvious spiritual truths and teaching others to do so, guess who your sponsor is? Satan of course. Do you know what the next idea he is going to sell to you will be? I am sure you dont want to know. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by karpentar: 10:17am On Feb 23, 2012 |
@Diluminati Just shut up, you've lost this uncalled-for argument. May be you should seek for other dumb internet articles and post for further debates. |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by FXKing2012(m): 10:18am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Pls people just leave @diluminati alone, it's obvious she's just an attention seeker with no real substance. It amazes me how someone could just come out talking about a subject she has absolutely no knowledge of, what better way to tell the world you shouldnt be taken seriously. Again if she doesnt believe in God what is she doing in religion section, she should go to romance or jokes where God is not discussed. It's easy to identify people that are unfulfilled and in search of something |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by Nobody: 10:19am On Feb 23, 2012 |
Delluminati, You have just succeeded in making a fool of yourself judging from the responses a couple of people have quoted from the bible about understanding tongues. Serves you right !!! |
Re: Stop It! No One Spoke In Unknown Tongues In The Bible! by unphilaz(m): 10:21am On Feb 23, 2012 |
@ tongue talkers While talking in tongues, i have taking the time to make my research and this was what i discovered on tongues. Scientific perspectives http://www.associatepublisher.com/e/g/gl/glossolalia.htm You can also check this links also http://www.religioustolerance.org/tongues5.htm http://www.bible411.com/glossolalia/chapter4.htm |

1 Corinthians 14:5 I would like every one of you to speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may be edified |
