Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, hewill guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come ( John 16:13).
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth, and He knows all the deep things of God. Jesus said, He( the Holy Spirit) would take of that which belongs to Him (Jesus) and unveil them to you(John 16:15).
He'll guide you into ALL truth, and teach you ALLthings, for He's your in dwelling teacher.
Sadly, many haven't taken advantage of this awesome ministry of the Holy Spirit, because, perhaps, they've never been adequately taught. The Holy Spirit can enlighten you about your business, science, chemistry, mathematics,metallurgy, etc.! He can teach you everyday life, as well as heavenly things. He loves us and is interested in our success.
It's not in the nature or character of a Christian to fail in life; because having received the Holy Spirit, you have an in dwelling teacher, who knows how to make you a success and cause the work of your hands to prosper. In Isaiah 48:17, He said "....Iam the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go. " O, how wonderful this is!The Holy Spirit can teach you how to live in righteousness and prosperity, and guide you in the path of God's destiny and perfect will for your life!
Welcome and encourage the ministry of the HolySpirit in your life! You can ask and receive guidance in any situation as you require. That He lives in you means you have access to all the wisdom of God, for He is the Spirit of wisdom. This means you can function in His wisdom when you face challenging situations or seem to be at a crossroads. One of the surest ways to activate His power and wisdom in you is through speaking in tongues. As you speak in tongues, your Spirit is sensitized to receive the wisdom you require to handle different issues and deal excellently in all your affairs.
PRAYER:
Dear Father, I thank you for granting me wisdom by the Spirit and through the Word. I deal excellently in all my affairs today, walking inyour perfect will and guided in the path of righteousness, in Jesus' Name. Amen.

1 Corinthians 14 :2(KJV)
2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
(CEV)
2 If you speak languages that others don't know, God will understand what you are saying, though no one else will know what you mean. You will be talking about mysteries that only the Spirit understands.
(AMP)
2 For one who speaks in an [unknown] tongue speaks not to men but to God, for no one understands or catches his meaning, because in the [Holy] Spirit he utters secret truths and hidden things [not obvious to the understanding].
1 Corinthians 2:12(KJV)
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to usof God.
(CEV)
12 But God has given us his Spirit. This is why we don't think the same way that the people of this world think. This is also why we can recognize the blessings God has given us.
(AMP)
12 Now we have not received the spirit [that belongs to] the world, but the [Holy] Spirit Who is from God, [given to us] that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts [of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly] bestowed on us by God.

What you are talking about is the practice of voodoo. Chanting to invoke the spirits.

The gift of tongues is no longer present and was given to the first Christians, to preach the gospel in the world and the gift of tongues gave them the ability to preach the gospel in foreign languages.

How can you speak of the spirit of truth, then encourage christians to adopt pagan practices as a gift of the Holy Spirit.

What you don't know the Bible enough to perceive the difference between biblical gift of tongues and pagan voodoo chanting?

The Pentecostal movement is a pseudo Christian cult that has incorporated pagan practices as the gifts and work of the Holy Spirit.

That could only be abhorrent to God and a sinister work of Satan.

By the way that's what a perfect understanding of scripture if for, not chanting gibberish.

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

Acts 2:7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? 2:8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? 2:9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, 2:10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 2:11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.


There is the gift of tongues at work, how on earth can you confuse that with the joke they pass off as the gift and also say that chanting that gibberish will make Christians wise to deal with all lifes affairs?

That is a perfect example of moronic tradions entering the church, and superceeding scriptural truth, and also taking certain scriptures out of context to justify a pagan practice in church.

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly

above all that we ask or think,

according to the power that worketh in us,

Unto him be glory in the church

by Christ Jesus throughout all ages,

world without end. Amen."



Blasphemy.
[The Unforgivable Sin!] The blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, Mat_12:32; Mar_3:28, consisted in attributing to the power of Satan, those unquestionable miracles which Jesus performed by "the finger of God," and the power of the Holy Spirit. It is plainly such a state of wilful, determined opposition to God and the Holy Spirit, that no efforts will avail to lead to repentance.

So are you accusing me of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit because I point out from scripture that this worthless gibbering crap Pentecostals call tongues, is not the gift of tongues?

You Pentecostals have no special claim to the Holy Spirit or power or gifts.

It's just voodoo that you do

@ William8; The truth is that this same God that we serve, has not become so WEAK that He can no longer fight His battles. Don't you think if anyone has misinterpreted or translated the scripture to discredit Him in anyway, as you seemed to have believed in your heart, He's able to deal with the situation? I believe this is a place where we can all share our ideas together & with each other to advance the gospel, rather than try to be a hater! People are watching, here too! People who wants to see the good in the gospel thru us so they too can change.

I believe the OP quoted several verses that say that the holy Ghost does in fact live in people and that those people do speak in tongues.

I've done it myself.

You sound like those people I knew as a kid. They said, "You can't lose your salvation" and "Miracles and tongues does not happen anymore it died with the original disciples" Then why put the scriptures the OP mentioned in the book? Something to read when your bored?

Did not Jesus himself say that to enter the kingdom of heaven you must be "Born again"? Was he saying you have to be reincarnated? No you must be filled with the holy ghost.

"First Corinthians 3:16"

Every branch of every bank has a vault otherwise called a strong room where money and other valuables such as certificates, wills, and jewelries are kept. Every vault has vault custodians who make sure that movement to and from the vault is restricted. It will be absurd to keep biscuits and groundnuts in the vault.
Everybody created by God has a vault otherwise called the heart where issues of life, indeed, valuable intangible principles such as faith, love, salvation, righteousness, etc are kept. Every heart has its owner as its vault (heart) custodian who restricts what goes in andout of the heart. It will be absurd for a Christian to keep filthy memories, canal pleasures, hatred, malice, envy, pride, etc in the heart (vault).
The reason is simple, out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. Our thoughts (which come from our hearts) control the things we say. Our speech controls our actions. Our actions control our life and ultimately, our destinies! Can you see why you must guide yourheart jealous

AMEN.....
