Im not trying to stand on anything....my tackle is simple and u dont have to agree, especialky when u jumped in after several exchange of comment...
.. U don't understand all languages, neither did u hear the op... u are the one that has no standing to say he spoke nonsense


"Jump in" in a public forum? Na I think not.

I don't need to understand a language to decipher gibberish when I hear one. Most of the togues in Nigerian churches are gibberish and if you think them representative of any real language anywhere in the world, you are greately mistaken.

Then u are just invalidating someone without proof just because u want to make mockery or because u don't have the experience

Like the other guy I was talking to before u rushed in after several comments.... He was trying to mock the op that if the op's tongues is just bli bli bli or ble ble be, then it's rubbish..

To buttress my point..I Googled "bli"..and it turns out the "bli" he was just using as a random example means "to become, or "to grow" in Norwegian language....so if a random word that was supposed to be gibberish turns out to have meaning..why will u assume what someone said is nonsense without auditing it?

Saying u don't need know more than English before u conclude another tongue u hear gibberish is total fallacy..
.I have watched discovery channel of discovered new territories and the language of people there ddnt even sound like humans speaking .....
Again my point is... Just because a language gibberish to u doesn't mean it is automatically eto everyone.. ....because some pple heard the disciples speak correct languages, some pple mocked them for being drunk and speaking gibberish in the same passage....

Honestly, I will never make mockery of him, the most of my life was spent in the church just like OP, I was once like OP praying, thirsting and fasting for the Holy Spirit. I was much younger and deluded with years of continued religious brainwashing.

Nope, not mocking at all, The tongue are mostly gibberish lacking any meaning and I say that absent of mockrey or malice.

What are the benefits of speaking in tongues outside feeling euphoric? Will speaking in tongues makes you as rich as Elon musk or even Dangote?

From the premise of all the people around me who spoke in tongues never amounting to anything in the long run other than the excitements. I don't do religion anymore.

Blessed are the peace keepers for they shall be called children of God!

Anyone can be a child of God! All those pastor's lies that fills your brain ehn! You better comot am!

No be only convert!


You cannot be a child of God as Muslim. Islam encourages to persecute the sons.



Surah 3:151: "We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve (all non-Muslims) …"

Surah 2:191: "And kill them (non-Muslims) wherever you find them … kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers (non-Muslims)."

Surah 9:5: "Then kill the disbelievers (non-Muslims) wherever you find them, capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush …"

Gal.4.29 - But as then he that was born after the flesh (slaves) persecuted him that was born after the Spirit,(sons) even so it is now.

John.1.12 - But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:


Your Quran tells you to ask me to teach you scriptures. You are not following your prophet.

allabig:


so the goal is to become rich here ?
If spending 3 to 4 hours everyday praying and speaking in tongues does not make you rich, then what is the purpose outside making you feel high and euphoric?

Muslims shouting "Allah akbar" at the top of his voice multiple times gives them euphora and a high.
Buddhists chanting "Om Mani Padme Hum" multiple times gives them euphoria and a high.

Cele Christians shouting holy Michael or el jah multiple times puts their mind in a state of euphoria or trance.

Same thing with pentecostals screaming Jesus or some other gibberish, it only induces euphoria and a trance. The same effect of being on hard drugs.

So the Holy spirit that came down as dove didn't stay around? He had to return and come again?
The holy spirit that came as dove, came down on Jesus at the beginning of his ministry. At that time he was yet to choose his apostles or disciples.

Will you as a master give 100,000 settlement to your apprentice who is yet to learn from you? What do you think will happen to the money?

Also, the Holy spirit had mo reason to come on them because Jesus was there with them.

The holy spirit came later to continue the work of establishing the kingdom by helping the apostles preach with power and wonders.

Re: How I Started Praying/speaking In Tongues. (my Experience) by Emic555: 12:16pm On Jul 15
I was surprised the first day I spoke in tongues though, I have prayed for the gift , but I was unable to speak. Something happened to me one midnight. I was sleeping in my room, and a Catholic church beside my building was having a vigil. And they were singing worship songs. In my dream I don't know how my spirit connected with the song they were singing in the church. In other words I was singing that same song in my sleep and I started speaking in tongues in my dream and I woke up with a loud voice. I couldn't control my tongue, I was vibrating, and the more am hearing the song from the church the more my voice keep increasing, I tried to stop but I couldn't. Speaking in tongues is real to those that have experienced it

Study tongues?


Your bible.

You defend a lot of ignorant and shallow interpretations.

You know know bigotry is not a lack of understanding but when you fully understand and apply parts of a discuss but you leave out other important aspects. It could be five percent but once it's not captured in the other areas you utilise. You often end up with a wrong interpretation of things.

Even with the Holy Spirit he still chose Judas. Does that mean the Holy Spirit isn't perfect? Even after the 12 disciples, Paul was appointed again as an emergency disciple after Jesus left! Jesus sure didn't select them well!

Will you as a master give 100,000 settlement to your apprentice who is yet to learn from you? What do you think will happen to the money?
This is subjective to many factors! Are you saying God is yet to know Jesus?

Also, the Holy spirit had mo reason to come on them because Jesus was there with them.
So you mean Jesus and the Holy Spirit are equal to one another's presence?

The holy spirit came later to continue the work of establishing the kingdom by helping the apostles preach with power and wonders.

After Jesus said it is finished then the Holy spirit came to continue what again?

Would you attribute the choice of not wearing a robe and sandals, or not marrying your cousin, to the influence of civilization? These practices are often determined by traditions unique to specific geographical regions during certain historical periods.
