[/quote] Tongues in fact, is not the evidence of the "Holy Ghost"! There are nine gifts of the Holy Spirit in which Tongues is the least of the nine. Read your scriptures for yourself. [/quote] How can you say tongues is not evidence of the Holy Ghost and then go on to say it is one of the nine gifts? What? Tongues is evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost for without said baptism there would be no speaking in tongues! [b]And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, [u]the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.[/u][/b] Please read the scriptures and digest the whole word we have been given before teaching lest you lead any astray. [/quote] No.. tongues must be learned ... by your choice.. please put your scriptures away and think. Most of the bible is NOT truth and then your lousy ministers play up the false shit. I have heard people talk in "tongues" and its garbage. [/quote]
Original Message
But i cant explain this scripture according to my Pentecostal doctrine.
1 Corinthians 14:20
20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
For what reason does the writer take pause, in this scripture? A pause to make an appeal that "these brethren"(the corinthians) conduct themselves as men and not get mad at Paul.
Its almost as if he thinks what he is about to say, will anger them...so he appeals to them to not be as chidren.
Why is Paul , afraid they will be angry?
