Did Jesus speak in tongues?
I have concluded that Jesus did not speak in tongues.
Tongues is the one uniquely distinctive New Testament gift (Isa 28.11; 1 Cor 14.21) not available (I don't think) to those under the Old Covenant (correct?). Since Jesus was born under the law and died prior to the coming of the Spirit at Pentecost, He, therefore, did not speak in tongues.
This is a question that has come my way, and I was interested in your opinion. (Try to keep the answer to 25 pages or less.
What do you say?
If I am right, what are the implications? Does this mean that Christians have a gift that was unavailable to the Lord Himself and, if so, why?
Hmmmm?
