Please,can anyone help me interprete my dream
In my dream I was pulling out an object like an iron nail from the sole of my right foot,it really pained me but after pulling it out I woke up.

Please what does this mean?

Brethren in the house, I need serious clarification about this and its about the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
Based on my knowledge and my experience also on the journey God took me before I was being baptised by the Holy Ghost and could speak in tongues. The bible says when you receive Christ Jesus as you Lord and saviour, you receive the Holy Spirit which is right but from my own knowledge and understanding, baptism of the Holy Ghost and power with the evidence of speaking in tongues does not come until the heart is fully sanctified. I understand that when you are born again, your spirit is but not the soul which means your thoughts and mind is still the same as there is still the old adamic nature in us but after salvation comes sanctification which is when you renew your mind with the word of God then after the heart is fully sanctified, then baptism of the Holy Spirit. Reason for all this is because the Holy Spirit does not dwell in an unsanctified heart so until there is sanctification, there is no baptism of the Holy Ghost. This is how I understand it and this was exactly how it happened in my own case.
Now there is this other church I went to, and what they teaches is that a sinner as soon as he receive Jesus can be baptised immediately and also speak in tongues, which they also practise backing it with scriptures like

acts 2:37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”

38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptised, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

And some other scriptures and this they practise in that church, once you receive Jesus, they help you to speak in tongues

I understand that satan has he's own counterfeit of speaking in tongues.

Now my question is, can a sinner who just receives salvation and hasn't gone through sanctification of the heart be baptised with the Holy Ghost and can speak in tongues?

This is really bordering me and confusing and they use lots of scriptures in the bible, 1cor 12,13,14 and some others to back it up.

On the day of pentecost, when about 120 of them were baptised, they already believed and received Jesus, they were already followers of Christ so it was easy for them to be baptised but a sinner who just receive Jesus to be baptised in the Holy Ghost and can speak in tongues just immediately is what baffles me.

tete7000:
You are slow to understand. He is saying Buhari negative body language caused it just like it still putting us into problem now. No one wants to go into serious business with a negative person without a fool-proof guarantee. Ask yourself: how many times did you experience scarcity under GEJ and in a space of less than one year under Buhari, how many times have you experienced it? Your truthful answer will clear your doubt on his assertion.

Stop being clever by half. You will forever be judged for selling an archaic military dictator with zero modern-day knowledge and no problem solving skill to Nigerians.

There was no fuel scarcity in 5 years of Jonathan's administration.

Fear of uncertainty caused by APC denial of existence of subsidy and sponsored protest against total deregulation leading to the only nationwide scarcity can't dent Jonathan"s record.

Jobs, jobs... well goodluck to all searchers. I live on fiverr, feeds and pays my bills. Maybe it's time some of us considered that route

Are you a christian ?

Jessicha:
clueless , been a christian or not has nothing to do with the question asked . I believe you only want to derail from the topic , stick to the topic and address the question posed to you ... if u can't answer , just say I DONT KNOW .

Peritus:
Does it mean it is right to acknowledge being a sinner while praying?

argent:
This thread is super quiet. Where is everybody. I always look forward to reading something new and fresh from this thread. God bless all the contributors. I wish everyone a week full of testimonies.

adren:
It is no mere gainsaying that endtime is here.. We are now in a world and a society where immorality and vain acts are condoned..

Dear NLders, how do you practically wade off immoral acts and remain deep rooted in faith??

My church used to teach me to "close my eyes and run away" but it doesn't really work..

For instance, I see a girl with really good assets displaying them with pride and sense of lust, and then, getting into her pants occupies my church mind..

Thank you all for your positive answers. God bless.

ElrayKhalifah:
Try to listen well....am not sending and posting this in audio though....
The critical truth is you can hear spiritual voices when you reach up to a point but it can never be God's voice.... It's surely the voices of the genes... So stop deceiving yourself..... God can never speak with a normal human being like us...the only people that are chanced to hear the voices of God are those prophets of the past... After those, all other silly voices been heard by any sane human being is from gene or rather still your normal dream

Where are the Oga's mentioned here? I should wait for them to comment first.

GoodMuyis:
Deliverance and Self Deliverance

I will to share what God has done in my life as testimony here, But am still waiting for 100.

In the mean can the Brethren lecture us in The Chemistry of Fasting and Prayer, what happen when we fast, what compel God to answer our prayer when we fast.
