Only deep can reach unto the deep. Tinubu statement is an intellectual statement understood by many people except blind minded people or people that are intelligently lazy to discern the truth.

IBOS are predominantly Catholics and traders. You don't understand Bible and Logic. Anybody engaging you on Tinubu intellectual dissection of old National Anthem to Biblical spiritual tongue which is a language of Holy Spirit universal to everybody baptised by the Holy Spirit and with the gift of Tongue as different from physical tongues (languages) which vary from tribe to tribe as being the basis of diversity of races. Diversity of Tongues (races) and Universality of Holy Spirit through gift of Tongue is not talking about Tower of Babel. He was talking about diversity and that it is only in the Bible we got a tongue that is not attached to any race or tribe.

IBOS can never understand logic and reasoning.

Lolx hahahahahaha you are back at it again. If you are as intelligent as you want to appear you will know I am not Ibo, look at my username.

Anyways I will humour you this once. WE all inherited SPEAKING IN TONGUES from the BIBLE. Kai it is well ooo, do me a favour and type speaking tongues on your Bible app and see if you will see Genesis as a reference. You are just trying to unreasonably dull in your defense of Tinubu.

His use of words are wrong, his context is also wrong. Being fair, what he meant might be what you are trying so hard to defend but just admit the two above so we can all rest. It's difficult to teach a primary school pupil matrix and calculus. Abeg

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.

I'm telling you!
Even me that's not a Christian understand that line.

What a shame to some people who claim to be Believers.

A lot of people are just here talking nonsense, the tower of babel case is different from speaking in tongues. There are no two meaning to speaking in tongues in Christendom. For you to speak in tongues, you must be under the influence of the holy spirit. So BAT used the word wrongly. So stop associating the case of tower of babel as speaking in tongues because they were never under the influence of the holy spirit. Thanks

Speaking in tongue is not a language. You cannot interpret it literarily as you did. You're giving it literary meaning just to justify the blunder committed by Tinubu. Speaking in tongue is a spiritual gift and not like normal language learn daily.
It's a gift given to those that are washed and bone by the spirit to help in the spiritual matter. Or have you seen any book that contain learning how to speak in tongue but you can see books on how to learn Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, French etc.
So, stop giving it literary meaning.
Hear what the Bible says: "Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered".

Who doesn't have understanding?

That's why I told you that speaking in tongues is speaking in a different new language. What happened at the Babel was the same as what happened at the Pentecost.

My grandmother sometimes prophesied in Hausa which she didn't understand. It was a different language.

Just like I added, she prophesied OBJ Presidency.

Oga you don dey change goal post.

First I am not annuling your mother's prophecy or her prophetic grace. Infact that was why I asked for her church before she died.

Secondly, my stating of understanding is not meant as an insult (sorry if it sounded thus) but a statement of incomplete vintage of the matter which is clear with your latest response cos I believe we had come to a compromise.

Thirdly I still maintain that contextually you can't connect tower of babel and upper room. I have given reasons before but I don't think I'm getting through.
One of the things believers must be careful of is the philosophy or ideology that the ends justified the means. God told Moses hit the rock the first time, he did water came out, he told him to speak to the rock the second time, he didn't instead he struck it twice. Did water come out, yes was that what God wanted no.
That the language of men became diversified in the tower doesn't mean is the same thing as speaking in tongues. Chapter 6 the spirit of God won't strive again with man meaning he has left him to himself, chapter 11 they had different tongues. So you remove the spirit in the tower they spoke different language (not to be mistaken with speaking in tongues) in the upper room they Holy Ghost came they spoke in tongues. Not the same thing.
Vital point the Holy spirit is the defining factor of the speaking in tongues.
Was there might rushing wind, tongues of fire, did they glorify God, did they go about preaching.
When they "spoke in tongues" what happened next, miracle, signs and wonders? The Holy spirit came upon David, Saul, Samson etc did they speak in tongues. Please the restoration of unity in diversity should not be confused with diversity from unity. God scattered their language because they were going of his will, God poured his spirit by the prophecy of Joel unto all flesh so that they would be enabled to communicate with God. You don't learn tongues, it doesn't stay same forever. It's not transferable to your generation.

The fact that different language was generated after the tower doesn't mean its the same as the language of the upper. Upper room 120 people, Tower of babal (lower room) all living human being. If na the same, we all should recieve the holy ghost and be speaking in tongues. Muslims learn Arabic they shouldn't need to, kegite developed their language is that also speaking in tongue, binary and machine language too na speaking in tongues ba.


Honestly I didn't want to talk from the start but when I saw people bending scriptures inaccurately I couldn't but speak. Its my solemn vow. Thank you

If there's a reply from you aside from the question about your grandma, sorry I won't respond. Thank you

It's actually the same thing that happened but for different purposes. That is, they spoke different languages but it was for different purposes.

You actually thought the people at the Babel started speaking in new tongues without something touching them in the first place. Let me inform you that holy spirit have always existed before Jesus came.

Samson was filled with holy spirit for example. Elijah too. John the Baptist. All these men were before Jesus Christ. The only different was the spirit in Jesus wasn't given to him in measure like that of Elijah, Samson etc. Jesus' own was too much (oversaturated) equal to God's spirit. That's why he's called the son of God because he was a representative of God as a human.

I know IBOS are traders by nature. One thing I learned as a student in IBO land several years ago is that no objectivity and deep thinking and reasoning in the dictionary of the IBOS. They are ready to die foolishly for a foolish cause and no amount of intelligent call or voice of wisdom can awake their consciousness.

From what you wrote above, it is very clear why your foolish brothers have been making foolish submission without voice of reasons and they don't want correction.

You said Baba Adeboye has never spoken in Tongue. Is that correct? Secondly, you said no record of Apostle Paul speaking in Tongue in the Bible. Is that correct? You also said does it mean he did not study Bible religiously? Apostle Paul would not have studied Bible religiously because of Speaking in Tongue because speaking in Tongue came with New Testament through the Holy Spirit and New Testament was not written when Apostle Paul was in Ministry. His epistles formed part of what is now the New Testament. He could have read the Old Testament. There are records in the Bible that show Apostle Paul speaks in Tongue. Baba Adeboye also speaks in Tongue and many of us (his children) know. Paul says Tongue without Charity is unprofitable and he that speaks in Tongue, speaks mystery because he communes only with God. There are records that Paul speaks in Tongue.

The IBOS are predominantly Catholics and traders. You don't understand Bible and Logic. Anybody engaging you on Tinubu intellectual dissection of old National Anthem to Biblical spiritual tongue which is a language of Holy Spirit universal to everybody baptised by the Holy Spirit and with the gift of Tongue as different from physical tongues (languages) which vary from tribe to tribe as being the basis of diversity of races.

IBOS can never understand logic and reasoning.



U see why you are stupid, I'm not from IBO.
I've followed Adeboye from childhood and i repeat I've never seen or heard him speak in tongues.

Every scripture weather Old or New Testament was first in scroll, Apostle Paul teachings which start from Romans down to Thessalonians were at first in scroll before it was complied with other teachings including revelation into Bible.
You said New Testament was not written when Apostle Paul was in the ministry but how come his teachings are of the New Testament, how come he was the first prophet of the Gentiles which the Gentiles message is the New Testament.



Go and settle your problem with any IBO sharing your wife with you I'm not IBO

There is something the enlightened call slip of tongue which was confirmed by Tinubu who said he meant 50,000 soldiers which is alll sensible leader should do at the moment.
Nigeria has not up to 150,000 soldiers to 200 million people.
50,000 youths offthe labour market is hallelujah.
Even 100,000 is not much.
We need a larger force to confront the stupidity in the North,specifically.
All other serious nations the size of Nigeria,have larger armies.
Russia has more than 1 million strong army.

He later talked about Corn and Cassava as some of our staple agricultural items that can benefit the soldiers and country at the same time but unintelligent and low iq imps and miscreants began to shout agbado and cassava...lol
They would rather he says Pizzza and Hotdog instead of Corn and Cassava because of their little thinking...
One has to sit these urchins down and explain that our main power is agriculture which can make us a powerful nation if properly harnessed.

Tinubu did not commit any blunder. He spoke intelligently within the context of the old National Anthem which he quoted. Tribes and Tongues may differ is talking about unity in diversity. Different tongues vary from tribe to tribe which is the basic element of diversity. Biblical Speaking in Tongue is talking about Universality of the Holy Spirit through his gift of speaking in Tongue.

Whether you are a Samaritan, Greek, Asian, Jew, Arabs, IBO, etc, Holy Spirit Tongue is Universal understood by God. Though on the day of Pentecost, it was Universal. Diverse Languages is the opposite of Universal language which is the language of heavenly tribe. It is only in the Bible that we got speaking in Tongues. Before Christianity came to Africa, our diverse tongues and tribes have been with us.This is the Diversity.

That's the same thing I'm trying to let that babaolofin of a person to understand that tinubu is wrong by saying that we'll inherited SPEAKING IN TONGUES from the BIBLE but he started calling me IBO.
I don't know if to him anybody not in support of tinubu is ibo

Tinubu doesn't grant interviews cos he's full of shit. Nothing upstairs


"We Inherited Speaking In Tongues from the Bible" has 2 interpretations and both are blasphemous.

INTERPRETATION ONE... (Acts 2)

Using this interpretation, Tinubu is saying we "Inherited" God's gift from the Bible. Speaking in Tongues is a gift, not an inheritance. It's a gift granted by the HOLY SPIRIT to speak languages the speaker DID NOT PREVIOUSLY KNOW. It's not Inherited, but gifted by the Holy Spirit.


(WRONG) INTERPRETATION TWO.. (Tower of Babel Genesis 11:1 - 9 )

This interpretation is even more blasphemous. Tower of Babel is a symbol of disunity. The confusion and disunity God afflicted them was punishment for their act of rebellion and arrogance. In other words, the story of Babel explains how /why we had different languages leading to confusion and tribalism and eventually disunity. So saying we inherited it from the Bible would mean we inherited our current disunity from the Bible.

So those linking what Tinubu said to the Tower of Babel should have a rethink.


WHY INTERPRETATION TWO IS WRONG...

Speaking In Tongues means "Gift of Tongues". In English, there's a term called 'collocation'. Collocation, according to Wikipedia "refers to a natural (predictable) combination of words that are closely affiliated with each other."
Speaking in Tongues has no affiliation with the Tower of Babel disunity. This is why if you trace the origin of 'speaking in Tongues', you won't see the story of Babel.

So my advice is that Tinubu should learn how to speak coherently before he inadvertently blaspheme against Islam. We know what would happen next.


[b]Please let’s relax and look at things dispassionately! The first Interpretation you cited is obviously what Tinubu meant….going by the story that preceded his comment….about Kayode citing a version of the National Anthem and the need to marry that with the new version of the Anthem. He therefore meant the phrase “inheriting speaking in tongues” as a positive attribute which was inherited from the Bible.
However, most of his listeners do not think deeply enough to appreciate this reference!
As to your quibbling about his use of the word ‘inheritance’ as opposed to ‘Gift’, I would posit that every Gift of the Holy Spirit is actually our inheritance…..this is because we humans are of the Spirit. As spirit-beings we inherited all the attributes of the Spirit which include Purity, Love, and Justice among others.
At the outset from the spiritual realm where we emanated from as spirit-seeds, we all carried within us “as inheritance”, those basic attributes and qualities which we are meant to develop further in the material worlds before the “mature ones” among us can then return home to Paradise to participate usefully in the ongoing activity at that higher realm! cool cool[/b]

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.
Stop reinforcing failure. Speaking in tongues. Not speaking in languages. Stop twisting the scriptures just to support what he said. And stop quoting what happened at the tower of babel. Speaking in tongues is one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
