It is a must. You just need to fumble like a mad man, roll on the floor, smash things to please god. He enjoys it... God can't afford clowns for now so he need his"Children" to take the job. |

One of those Pentecostal abracadabra. Salvation is by grace through faith in Lord Jesus. As you move from the state of a babe into a higher class, your strength in spirit will improve. This twisting and culturalization of religion has made a lot move out of the religion, people who have been written for destruction from old, just like the papacy. May God bless us all. Try reading the book of Romans. |

Many moons ago i visited a pentecostal church to see what they were about, their speaking in tongues sounded like mumbo jumbo. On about my secong visit, the pastor invited people who needed healing to go forward. One man who looked normal complained of pain in the leg and the pastor said your problem is that one leg is longer than the other, so he sat him down and said holy spirit make this leg as long as the other, and then he said no stop Lord you have gone to far (apparently God didn't know when to stop). The pastor said back up lord, that's it stop. And the person stood up bouncing around, he was healed, (yeah sure). Another man among the people that came forward, really had one leg shorter than the other, he was wearing a boot with a built up sole. The pastor avoided him and dealt with the others. When this man was the only one left, He didn't sit him down and ask god to make his leg the same length as the other, he just said that the man didn't have the faith to be healed and prayed over him. Of course I didn't go back there again, just like I don't invite jw's into my home anymore, just like I don't go to rc mass etc. Study the Bible for yourself, and there are plenty of good Christians that you can find to study with. Some of the Churches may be good also, look around. |

ammyluv2002: ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm sorry for responding very late, I was hardly online yesterday ![]() Dearie, you're very right. Speaking in other tongues is just as one of the other gifts. Unfortunately, most Christians have come to believe that it is a must for one to exhibit this gift as a sign of being baptized in the Holy Ghost. Of course, their yard stick is Acts 2:2-4. Surprisingly, the best gift to covet is the gift of prophecy! I Cor 14:1 says 'Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the GIFTS OF PROPHECY.' With this in mind, Apostle Paul listed the 9 Gifts in I Cor 12:7-10. There was no mention that one is greater than the other but the yardstick of Acts has piled pressure on believers to 'learn' the act of speaking in tongues. That one does not speak in tongues does not mean one does not possess other gifts. And if people still go on with the excuse that this exact gift is the mark of the baptism of the Holy Spirit then they're wrong. The true mark of the Holy Spirit are described in Gal 5:22-23 'But the FRUIT of the Spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS and SELF CONTROL.' As a Christian (Tree), one is not yet baptized in the Holy Ghost if these FRUITS are missing. 1 Like 1 Share |
