Toungs are for a sign unto the jew and even unto the gentile .It is the
interpretation of other languges of diferant tribes so that they can
hear the gospel of christ . It's not a gift so that one can edify
themselves! The bible also says that these signs and gifts will cease ,
but will come back used by the false trinity in the book of revelations?
The antichrist will have many signs and gifts !

moon, I agree with you except to say that these Penticostal types and
others who practice this modern version are not satanic, rather they are
somne of the most devout, if misguided, people you will ever meet.
There is a lot of true faith in this Church I can gurantee that.

i once asked a older woman at church about speaking in tongue cause i
thought it was unique well she told me you have to be a saved person to
know how to speak it. i just want to know is there class for this cause
i dont know what they are saying and sometimes it sounds like they say
the same thing, so is it just a hoax. "oh yea the lady died shortley
after probably cause she questioned my beliefs.??????

Actually speaking in tongues should mean that, under the inspiration of
the holy ghost, anyone listening to your teachings would understand you
in their own language. just think about it, if you're trying to spread
the word of god and everyone listening speaks a diferent language, how
can you reach them all if you speak in a language no one else
understands or only very few can translate? so it got turned the other
way round to create the dependence on the translator. so now you have
one person who holds all the "power". and whatever he or she says is
being spoken will become the word of god. why would god need
translators? prophets maybe, but prophets plus translators?
There are many phenomena experienced in religious cerimonies and acts of
faith. People will often feel overwhelmed, ecstatic, experience
convulsions, a sense of fulfillment, they'll feel like laughing
hysterically, they'll start crying profusely, they will feel love
towards those around them, they'll experience hallucinations, they will
even start talking gibberish. It's mostly a group effect mixed with
certain chemical temporary or more permanent imbalances in the body, and
it has similar causes to those experienced by otherwise calm individuals
when acting as part of a mob. Of course the consequences are totally
different. But the interpretation should be careful.
Speaking in tongues is something completely different and it seems to
happen way to frequently these days...
I'm not a religious person anyway and I totally respect all your faiths
and beliefs.

first of all Tongues is a prayer language.
I have to wonder, r these comments written by christians or what? does
anyone read the bible?? read 1st Corinthians 14 over and over and over.
I could break it down here but that would be too long. just dont
misinterpret when he is talking about the church(public setting) or on a
personal level. thats why we need tongues b/c we wont believe the junk
that other people say esp. pastors(sad to say). thats why in John it
says no one will teach us when we have the Holy Spirit b/c he teaches us
all things. also read through the book of Acts, notice what happens
after the encounter in the upper room. Tongues enables us to stop living
powerless lives b/c christians are not to be powerless. tongues enables
us to be edified above weaknesses and deception read Jude v20. when he
says in 1st Cor. about speaking without an interpretor, he meant in a
public setting(church)the people who get up and speak in tongues without
interpreting are not to do that (then they say "oh the Holy Ghost was on
me I couldnt control it" thats a lie)the churches that dont believe in
tongues tend to be powerless. does any one ever wonder why tongues is at
the bottom of the gifts of the spirit thats b/c it is the foundation for
all the others. there r different type of tongues
1. Edification Jude verse 20, 2. Interpretation 3. intercession Romans
8:26 4. sign to the unbeliever acts 2(day of pentecost
so lets not mix them up.
think about it Paul said in verse 18 of 1 Cor. that he pray/speak in
tongues more than us all and he wrote 2/3rds of the new testament and
did more stuff than the disciples who walked next to Jesus, Paul wasnt
on the scene with them. so tongues is a prayer language that you allow
the Holy Spirit to pray through you to build you up(strenghten you) the
Bible says THEY PRAY as the spirit gives utterance Acts 2:4 he form the
words, you pray it out. now the holy spirit wants to pray the perfect
prayer for your life which was in God's plan from day 1. its the purging
of the things that we dont need - those things that prevents us from
hearing God(yes hearing God)if any one prays in tougues then you know
what I am talking about. its a good thing we dont understand it, think
about when you r praying and you realize that you r praying against the
appetites that you like wouldn't you stop? I would
1 Cor 14:2, v 4.
he say your understanding is unfruitful b/c its directly from your
spirit and your understanding is inthe realm of your soul thats why we
dont understand it
but we can pray forthe interpretation(sometimes he gives us the
interpretation)
he bypasses our mind where we can mess it up and change words and go
directly to our spirit from our spirit to His
Yongues can change ANY situation in your life, I dont care how bad it
seems you can pray your way out of it
I got this book after I started praying in tongues and It really broke
it down for me heres the link you could download the entire book for
free http://www.daveroberson.org
theres alot more to say but I'll leave it at that
I would encourage every christian to pray in tongues just as you would
pray in english
thats why the body of christ is so weak and powerless b/c we are
complacent and dont read the bible for ourselves believe the Bible and
not just the words of someone behind a pulpit.
any questions

I will have 2 come back to this as my time is up. I have to get ready 4
work. In short the translation should be (from Greek word: Glossam)is
not 'speaking in tongues. It is "speaking in other langusges' the
message the Almighty gave U educate the assembly, like what happened in
the day of pentecost when everyone heard the message in their language
so a couple thousand understood and was baptized. If U speak in a real
tongue, how come when U go to another language speaking Country u have
to get an interpreter who cannot translate your tongue-utterances which
u limit or now U can control? Just how the gift of healing is to heal
people, and the gift of teaching is to teach peoople, so the gift of
speaking in Glossa (real languages)is to inform and educate. so U can
hear in your language, if that's the message, "Do not go by the grocery
cause there's a bomb in the dustbin." Paul cannot be clearer on what he
said about that in Corinthians 14 and also 12. In case U do not know.
One of the things Psychiatrists use, (I read) to do confirm and indicate
demon possesion or craziness is 'speaking in an unknown and
indistinguishable gibberish. By the way I can do that by just opening my
mouth to let anything come out (carefully avoiding cusswords.) For
example the 'F' is not a bad word in Africa (I'm told) so how come the
'unknown tongue speakers do not utter that 'F-- word' sometimes? They
may utter some cuss words in another language and not know. I proove
that to people many times. If I am close to U at any time I will show U
how I can speak that 'no-language' more than u. Sorry to be so straight.

Tell them piffs. However, in spite of what ever some people are told,
they will STILL hold on tenaciously to what their parents and persons
they are 'devotees' to, told them. Just say it and leave them alone.

The Greek root word is 'glossa' not glossam. the 'M' is a typed error.

That 'H O L Y' Spirit, flames, is promised to 'those who obey him'
(Acts: 5: 32) That is his commandments. For example the Almighty says he
will destroy all those (with flames) who eat vultures including pig when
Jesus comes (Isaiah: 66: 15-17; 65: 1-7;) When one refuses to keep The
Creator's commandments, then chooses to obey traditions taught as
doctrine, instead, the devil is waiting right there to give them a
conterfeit. So let's say that 'unknown tongues' (and it really is
unknown)is the real thing. Then what is the conterfeit? The speaking of
known understandable languages in a new language speaking Country the
Evengelist goes to? There must be a conterfeit. Which is it? The text
is: "If you love me keep my commandments,AND I WILL ASK THE FATHER TO
SEND THE COMFORTER (HOLY SPIRIT. John: 14. U tell the difference, who is
a Christian or not,by who keep the commandments; and not who just say so
and shouts: "Watch me??!! "Anna rrram kne ke dah,...... ah dig nag nig
neebow. Beil bow bahr lah barrrr bah hiembo! sha la mar lah hak bah ok
bak la tee bah bimbo soolow thank yhooo goon go mow ahreebow.....eeeeek

THIS is what I mean when I address topics. There is no sence of
continuity among the Christian community. Brainwashing is what is
happening in Christian families all around the world - not meant to
encompass every single family, just the majority. A child is told, it's
reinforced, it's expected and that child grows and NEVER looks beyond
the telling. Never seeks to find truth for themselves. Is there any
wonder the word Agnostic is so prevailent in this society. It's a
safety net to "question" a belief "what if what I've been told is true"?
While up there walking that thin line of a fence LEARN, actually
question, don't be apathetic about it and then think that you can teach
or uphold that which you question? In the end, it's all about learning
- living a life filled with questions that one never seeks the answer to
is my idea of the greatest of sins. Leave those who are simple of mind
through no fault of their own to have blind faith. For others more
capable it is better to find your own answers, and not depend of the
questionable thoughts of others. There are severl here who offer,
back-up for their beliefs, follow thier lead, read, reseach, reason and
come to your own conclusions and by the power that your truth has, be
brave enough to stand behind your truth with facts you have personnally
gained. Defending your stand with your truth is the ultimate use of
the knowledger you all gain in life.

Plenty people say they are speaking in tongues now. Yeah! U want to hear
people speak in a deeper version and with differrent voices? Listen to
voodoo people when they go in their trance. In Trinidad it is 'Shango'
or Africa it is Orisha. One day I working taxi and drop some people by a
Shango man. I sat down waiting. He came up to me amidst mumblings and
told me that my wife has a next man. I did not believe him. But later I
found out it was true. so even they sometimes does have a message. One
Shango woman gone in a trance and amidst mumblings and voice
changing,etc announced that the child she is making is not her husbands
who is in the audience.
