Christian TV Evangelists who have joined Illuminati ranks Then & Now. Look close and pay attention. there is absolutely no reason whatsoever for God to give man jibberish and glosalalia to edify or prophecy for the church. God is not a god of confusion. There is no secret divine language that makes people babble incoherently. Quoting: Salt pentacostal tongue babble is satanic and part of the deeply satanic pentacostal movement. period. nothing like engaging in borderline hysterical babbling in order to open the gates wide for demons to harass. when the disciples were given the gifts of tongues, it was the ability to speak in foreign languages for the purpose of teaching the gospels and establishing the church. tongues has passed away as there is no need for them anymore. that is not to say that God would not give the gift of the ability to speak in a foreign language suddenly and miraculously for the purpose of ministering to someone. even the scriptures describe that when the men left the room with their new gift that the people outside could hear them speak in their own languages. it was human language. period end of sentence. Thread: All you need is FAITH, HOPE and LOVE to live pleasing to God. 7 times it's repeated. Prophecy, tongues & words of knowledge have passed away I don't babble, sounds like language to me. How many languages have been spoken by mankind since the beginning? To me it sounds like an asian language. i'm telling you, that is NOT from God if God is not speaking to you in a clear human language that you can easily and quickly understand than it is NOT from God i know you've been taught to accept it and worse, that letting it go is a major sin. that is pentacostal lies from the pit of hell. i'm telling you, repent and put it behind you it is only preventing you from hearing God correctly i'm sure He would like to simply have a normal conversation with you drop the jibberish it isnt necessary and only hinders the real communication God wants to have with you deplorably republican |

Christian TV Evangelists who have joined Illuminati ranks Then & Now. Look close and pay attention. ... Quoting: Salt it is NOT an unknown language it might be an unknown piece of information about an unknown situation but it is NEVER an unknown language but you have no way of knowing that. Your relationship with God may not be similar to some other one's. Paul himself referred to tongues of angels, and there is no reason to think that Heaven is limited to the language of the earth. Totally true, my Friend, the Spirit and the Words of God/language are ALIVE and eternal and irrevocable...the language of God is working in the world and universe...we would be presumptuous to think that His language would be earthly and limited... Therefore the need for interpretation.... Peace yes, but as we see from the verse in Romans, we don't always know what or how, to pray effectively and so the HS, in us, takes over. Again, purely private, no need for any interpreters In a Church...(a small gathering of true believers is also a Church) the Holy Spirit can interpret the Tongues for the benefit of all gathered together...ultimately,it is all up to the Holy Spirit. We are told to pray for the gift of interpretation. Each circumstance is unique, but it does not negate the interpretation if one is given.... daughter in NYC |

Christian TV Evangelists who have joined Illuminati ranks Then & Now. Look close and pay attention. After reading through the thread - I am discouraged to see those who profess love for Christ - battling it out over "speaking in tongues" Goodness! Does it not strike you that these kind of arguments are (yet another) battering ram the enemy uses to divide us? I have been around the Charismatic "movement" as well as the more "fundamental" churches since the 80's - I can tell you that this battle has been dividing the body ever since. I can tell you that this is an issue that has the power to get sincere believers really angry with one another. We can't afford to be divided. We need to be united - in order to pray. Our enemy has us all in his sights - and he ain't playin - according to Revelation 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. Sobering. It is arguments such as these that WILL wear us down - as prophesied in Daniel 7:25 25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High . . . I for one, am getting worn out. I am sickened by what I see going on in the world, and sickened even more by what I see in the body. The love of many HAS INDEED grown cold . . . Those of us that are "awake" - would be wise to steer clear from such senseless arguments. We love one another - by respecting one another. We will never agree on ALL things - except that we are sinners, saved by Grace through the completed work of Christ on the cross - not a work of our own. The ONLY way will can overcome IS TO STAND TOGETHER - like Jesus taught us in John 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. |

Dear Sister, I totally understand that satan has attempted to counterfeit and marginalize the TRUE gifts of the Holy Spirit. The Word warns of the anti-Christ spirit that is already working in the world today. I agree that it is prevalent in many aspects of the modern organized Church. However, there is a remnant .....I would ask that we not look upon the Gifts as something passé or powerless. That would be denying the power of Jesus Christ. Speaking in tongues does NOT a believer make....it is one of the many gifts given. That is the discretion of the Holy Spirit. This happened to me when I prayed to be Baptized in the Holy Spirit. This was my personal experience...no gimmicks or pride...this is merely how it manifested for me. I can never deny the power of the Holy Spirit...in ANY form. However if love is absent, it all means nothing. We are ALL the Body of Christ...but, He alone is the head. There is so much more to unite than to divide. I hope this helps to explain my circumstance and my reality. Most importantly, we are urged to look at the 'fruits' of the believer....but only God can look upon our hearts. I have witnessed the awesome power of Christ and eagerly await His coming... As I know we all do, thank you for the opportunity to speak my mind..... God Bless You daughter in NYC |

Christian TV Evangelists who have joined Illuminati ranks Then & Now. Look close and pay attention. We are living in a time when the simple truth just isn't good enough for people ......... Quoting: GT500 Watch and pray , the great falling away approaches ......... The wise are in morning but the fool parties on........ the problem is, is this is what is taught in the counterfeit church. these people really believe that they need to accept this or they will burn in hell. they really can't grasp the divine simplicity of the sufficiency of God's word and of God to accomplish whatever it is He wants. they really think they have to practice these mumbo jumbo heebee jeebee things without any certainty or order to have God move in their lives. When we get back to the simplicity and the sufficiency of what was already completed, we hear from God every minute of every day and there is no question, uncertainty, or hysteria involved. Dear Sister, I totally understand that satan has attempted to counterfeit and marginalize the TRUE gifts of the Holy Spirit. The Word warns of the anti-Christ spirit that is already working in the world today. I agree that it is prevalent in many aspects of the modern organized Church. However, there is a remnant .....I would ask that we not look upon the Gifts as something passé or powerless. That would be denying the power of Jesus Christ. Speaking in tongues does NOT a believer make....it is one of the many gifts given. That is the discretion of the Holy Spirit. This happened to me when I prayed to be Baptized in the Holy Spirit. This was my personal experience...no gimmicks or pride...this is merely how it manifested for me. I can never deny the power of the Holy Spirit...in ANY form. However if love is absent, it all means nothing. We are ALL the Body of Christ...but, He alone is the head. There is so much more to unite than to divide. I hope this helps to explain my circumstance and my reality. Most importantly, we are urged to look at the 'fruits' of the believer....but only God can look upon our hearts. I have witnessed the awesome power of Christ and eagerly await His coming... As I know we all do, thank you for the opportunity to speak my mind..... God Bless You I think what some people are experiencing, like our little baned friend maybe, is religious ecstasy, quite a real phenomenon, and has to do with spiritual clarity, not hysteria or demons. Of course, spiritual ecstasy is easy to deny by those who have never experienced Him "It's a friendly friendly world" (Andy Kaufman) Calm seas do not a sailor make, Nor easy horses, a horseman. And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower and when He could be certain only drowning men could see Him- Leonard Cohen |
