Aemmyjah:
Show me where the Bible says speaking in tongues means speaking in a language the devil cannot understand

what is the point of speaking in tongues

It might also mean praying out loud without people understanding what you are saying

Aemmyjah:
A special ability given through the holy spirit to some disciples in the early Christian congregation that enabled them to preach or otherwise glorify God in a LANGUAGE other than their own.

According to the Bible, tongues means language... You've seen or heard verse that mention how people from every nation, tribes and tongues.
Today too, I may say that Efik is my mother's tongue


Speaking in tongues is not speaking in unintelligible nonsense
If you read the Bible, when the disciples were filled with holy spirit and spoke in tongues, the audience UNDERSTOOD them cos they were speaking in their own language (Acts 2: 4, 8 and 11)

I never said speaking in tongues was gibberish.

I just wrote one of the most common ways people who speak in tongues sound
My mother speaking in tongues sound like hausa and not the typical bobo gaga

Speaking tongues means, speaking in a language that the devil cannot understand what you are saying

I know speaking in tongues means different to other people but this is what I know

Speaking in tongues is a gift from the Holy Spirit

quote author=Ilamina post=119777934]Europe always have
music competition despite language differences on the continent

Their musicians always tour and make their videos in other European countries. .especially British musicians
First good post you ll write that I ll read. If you are indeed depressed, hope you heal soon and not Hurst yourself.
Now, I feel like hugging you like your big sister, pure love o.


To the topic, Africa matter don tire me. Not just countries but tribe per tribe. No single cohesion or unity in things that can aid their development. It's not about musical competitions alone but other aspects. Before there was Kora Award. Now it's defunct. Learnt it's curse of Ham inside Genesis dey cause am.

I heard because Africans are hardworking and independent

We don't need unity, unity. .and be doing hug hug, pride, pride like other people

When I went to Ghana
My nigerian friends were irritated. .looks like they hate Ghana and Ghanaians

Europe always have
music competition despite language differences on the continent

Their musicians always tour and make their videos in other European countries. .especially British musicians

Looks like British unify their continent very well
Like the way Jamaicans unify their Caribbean islands

Well the British have the strongest currency, so they feel confident trying to relate with other European countries

Other Africans only co operate based on english and french
Only english speaking countries do big brother africa

Most nigerians, we never go to Ghana

I noticed the dark blue light was in countries like America, England, Australia, Canada, Bahamas, Jamaica, Barbados, st kitts and New Zealand. .these countries are considered native English speakers hence why they have dark blue light

As a nigerian, we speak english very well

we have no major African language that most people in the country speak
Like Ghana . .they speak English to each other, if they don't want too, they speak fante to each other


Maybe because in Africa, we have too much poverty, illiteracy, we don't have dark blue like the
rest

Instead, we have light blue on.the map because the western world believes we speak english as our official language and other languages come in first before english

In Nigeria, our major language of communication in schools in english

Maybe those local schools in the village, the students speak their language not english

As an ajebutter, my parents spoke english at home. .the only language I speak is english

It sucks I am not considered native English speakers like America

I know my english is not good
But i have met many ghetto white people, who cant speak English very well because they spent most of their youth in juvi or prison

Aemmyjah:
Hmm
It's not

then it's what

I know most nairaland girls, fancy tom Holland these days

But josh Henderson is just so cute. .plus being known to be cute, fit, slim . .he has two different eye colours

Heterochromia

Aemmyjah:
Do you know what it means to speak in tongues?

saying bobobo gogo guguvgagaga

jafaru196:
every believer can speak in tongues,do it for 2 hours everyday before you sleep before 4 months you will start seeing

thanks for the encouragement

Sixfeetbelle:
Found this weirdly humorous. I need to understand this.

You're half homophobic? How? How do you do half? Does this mean you hate half of them but love the other half? Which half do you love?

After watching Dallas buyers club
I find them cool and fascinating. .I began to enjoy some arts of being gay. . before I used too hate everything about them
I

But I still hate seeing two guys kissing and kinda uncomfortable around them. .but won't mind admiring them from far after watching that movie

And i found his butt thread on nairaland disturbing, but I realized he likes Tom Holland. . beginning to understand the tom Holland hype. .I am now More motivated to watch Tom Holland's Spider-Man movie

Bianca, so private with her beauty

So cool

Jeon:


ARE YOU HOMOPHOBIC?
I can be balance /unbalance just like a scale.

Are you Nigerian

I am half homophobic

Still trying to accept them more,
I have been watching many gay movies
I am about to watch broke back mountain soon

Jeon:
Africa does have juju.. The only thing is Africa use it for destructions.

you are gay

The real juju is in white people's land

Not in Africa

Africa does not even have juju sef

Sucks, they make it look like Africa is the headquarters of it. .. .

Nkita

Mr cork makes a serious post

After watching this nice gothic black American movie, eve bayou

Where many of the black women were voodoo worshippers, who saw visions for people

I was also surprised that black American and caribbeans still retained african juju practice

I became intrigued about seeing visions

You don't have to practice voodoo or phychic reading to see visions

My aunty is a pastor, and she could see vision

Christians have special gifts on earth like singing in church, seeing vision, healing, speaking tongues, preaching

But I have none of them
Having a speacial christain talent does not make you a true Christian
But I will like to have one

And vision is the one, I will like to have
And inorder to have one, you have to improve your spiritual life

I know some people get them naturally or born with it

Looks like mine, will be gotten through prayer, reading the Bible
And improving my spiritual llife

John wick

Just so cool

Aemmyjah:
Mistake
I meant to type TOAD

french people eat frog

Aemmyjah:
I have eaten snake
Dog
Pig is my sweetest
Bush rat
Rabbit

I'm not sure anything will make me eat bat, cat or road (though I ate a road as a child)

what's road

Nigerian vultures are the best

udede:
i can only say God bless you. Some Nairalanders do not really have what it takes to be human beings. Imagine such picture that always draw tears any where from around the world. Even the photojournalist that took that picture later committed suicide for doing nothing

The white photographer with all his education and western experience

Couldn't help the cute girl to the unicef food centre (she was walking towards the foreign/international ngo's serving food)

But only watched people chase the vulture away
So he wouldn't use her for suya


Nothing cool about this white people

Truvelisback:
What's ur business with Vultures? Do u eat them?

no

R

Their own is so fat, chubby, healthy, succulent and beautiful

Ours always look squashed, sad and just crying for help. .still suffering from obasanjo government

When I and my mum passed thru togo
She couldn't buying their tomatoes

Visiting other African countries is just fun

budaatum:
Why not post a Nigerian vulture for comparison?

Probably because you know they are skinnier.

Nigeria is blessed. .our land filled with milk and honey

Vultures from Northern Nigeria

See how healthy, bubbly , friendly and playful our vultures Look

Yuiiv

So funny

Looks like Lagos people like sex
