    How can I speak in tounges?

    Like I said before...I will try to keep this brief and to the point. In western society we have become overly analytical, as such many preachers find that those in the west struggle to “Seek for the Holy Ghost” Luk 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye...

    Tongues are a requirement

    In recent years the vast majority of religious leaders believe and teach that the “burden of proof,” lies with those who profess that ALL who receive the Holy Ghost WILL speak in tongues. In reality the burden of proof” belongs to those who say, “YOU DON’T HAVE TO speak in tongues”, to prove...

    How is this for a start? Mar 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

    Tongues are a requirement

    BEFORE WE COMMENCE ON ANY LONG DRAWN OUT DEBATE ON THE MERRITS OF THE THREAD. I.E. "TONGUES ARE A REQUIREMENT" I NOTICE THAT YOU ARE TENDING TOWARD A "THIS RESPECTED TEACHER SAID THIS AND THIS AUTHORISED ORGANISATION SAID THAT APPROACH" IF YOU WATCH THE VIDEO, IT BEGINS WITH THE STATEMENT...

    Tongues are a requirement

    Very good point Biblicist. In Australia I would be most rejected/excluded from AOG churches for promoting such a belief and doctrine. So do not hold the wider AOG community responsible for any of my views here. I am simply posing questions here that as yet are not being answered. How about...

    Tongues are a requirement

    So why do you continue to read the WORD of GOD out of context and therefore incorrectly...Is it not important enough to warrent some responsible attention to something as critical as context??? You do realise that the Bible is a Testament...As in a legal Will and Testament. You would do well...

    Tongues are a requirement

    The majority of the discussion thus far has been around the context of the verse of scripture you quote above. Perhaps it would bode well for you to take a moment of pause...actually read a few of the posts above so that your posting may be both deberate and measured. i.e Pro 18:13 He who...

    Tongues are a requirement

    Tongues are a requirement

    I agree with you Andrea411...obviously :) That said, Earlier I spoke of the concept of "BURDEN OF PROOF" I have found over the years that most people who believe that tongues are not required do approach the matter from the "FALSE" assumption that I must prove from scripture that they must...

    Tongues are a requirement

    Firstly when paul said "1Co 14:5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh, with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying. I have a few problems with your application of this text...
