Waw! You were there? Buddy? Well seeing as you were there when Jesus groaned in the Spirit, did you video it for us buddy?
You were there too?Just like when you were with Paul and understood his 'Speaking in tongues' old buddy!!
To be fair, the translation “groaned in his spirit” is not all that good a choice as the Greek word is better translated as anger, admonish or agitation. I suppose we should ask why would the Son of God need to speak in tongues when he already had a level of communication open to his Father that no one else has ever had.Some argue Jesus spoke in tongues in John 11:33
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he groaned in his spirit, and was troubled
At the very least, tongues is similar to this "groaning in spirit".

Yes, I think that many people would imagine Jesus quietly sitting or standing before his Father while he was here on earth praying in a meek and mild manner. Even though I am always reticent to put words into the mouth of any member of the Trinity, I would envision the prayer times of Jesus as often being very emotional events.Yah, that's why I started with "I've heard it argued" or something similar. I don't think it's a strong case, but I do like that Jesus wasn't a stoic monotone temperament, but strongly felt emotion and expressed it. I can imagine Him saying something like "oooAAAAGH!", almost like frustration but directed with intent towards death and the work of Satan.

(NASB) And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, ethe redemption of our body.

You assume where Paul spoke in tongues more than them all. There is no evidence for 'preaching in tongues' in the Bible.
If God has not forbid something, you should not. Especially in this case, since the passage says 'forbid not to speak with tongues.' You presume to assume that this speaks of tongues in the assembly, and are brazen enough to forbid speaking in tongues where the Bible has not.
I never said Paul preached in tongues. I said the other legitimate scenario for speaking in tongues, apart from in church, was in public places where foreigners were present as at Pentecost.
This is what the Bible says about spiritual gifts:
1 Peter 4:10 "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms."
1 Cor 12:7 "Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good."
The gifts are to be exercised in love (1 Cor 13:1-3) and love is not self serving (v5).
In 1 Cor 12:12-27 Paul goes to great pains to point out that the gifts are for the benefit of the body of Christ, just as our members (eyes, ears, hands etc) are for the benefit of our human bodies.
Hahahaha you are a funny dude, I'll give you that.I see that the 'speaking in tongues' brigade have taken what they see in scripture, put it through a mangle to get it to fit their own beliefs and then try and persuade everyone that what they are doing is scripturaly correct for them!
I dont see it. They claim this and that and quote Paul etc but for me, speaking in tongues was for the Apostles. Everything you hear these days is relatively 'new'. And of course, gibberish.
To deem any literary unit as being based on hyperbole we must be convinced that what the author has stated is something that either cannot be achieved or that it is so unlikely to occur that logic and reason would dictate that the author is employing hyperbole.
B. Hypothesis (what is hypothetical)
1 Corinthians: A Shorter Exegetical & Pastoral Commentary, Anthony C. Thiselton (2000) p.218
If I were to speak in human or in angelic tongues (v. 1) is an indefinite hypothesis. The NIV and NRSV miss this by treating it as an open or contingent hypothesis, “if I speak . . . ,” just as AV/KJV and NJB miss this with “though I speak.” Paul paints a hypothetical scenario without praise or blame: suppose it were the case that I spoke with... angelic tongues but had not love, I would have become — like what? Paul uses for his analogy a piece of bronze that was constructed not to produce a musical note with a definite tone and pitch but only to amplify sound or noise. Without love I would merely be an ancient megaphone, an acoustic resonator or a resonating, reverberating acoustic jar. The Greek word involved (echon) denotes not a pitched note, but what transmits sound, usually through resonating. Coupled with the Greek alalazon, it denotes endlessly reverberating noise that produces no melody. (See Harris, “‘Sounding Brass’”; and Klein, “Noisy Gong or Acoustic Vase?”)
Tongues of men - Latin, Greek, Aramaic & Hebrew
Tongues of angels – Paul regularly prayed to the Father through the Holy Spirit (14:15)
- Knows all mysteries – He knew all ‘knowable’ and ‘revealed’ mysteries (1Cor 4:1)
Gives all his possessions to the poor – Paul was often destitute (1Cor 4:11-12)
Surrendered his body to be burned (or maybe to boast) – Paul knew that he would one day have to give his life for Christ
Anthony C. Thiselton has addresses how the 'to remove mountains of verse 2 is not hyperbole but in fact a proverbial saying.
Hahahaha you are a funny dude, I'll give you that.
But tell me, have you read 1 Corinthians 14 over and over to check if your understanding of tongues actually makes sense? Because for me, when I read it, it just doesn't make sense any other way!

See! You need interpretation of your gibberish for it to come from God!!!!! What those hundreds or thousands of people utter cannot be interpreted and is just gibberish!
Some argue Jesus spoke in tongues in John 11:33
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he groaned in his spirit, and was troubled
At the very least, tongues is similar to this "groaning in spirit".
And you offer no scriptural argument that supports your case, just assertions and opinions.
You did quote some scripture, but your conclusion isn't accurate. Paul is talking about genuine speaking in tongues in the chapter. It is implied in the passage that it is possible to speak in genuine tongues without interpreting properly. That is why verse 28 is in there.
5 Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.
6 Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how shall I benefit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?
7 If even lifeless instruments, such as the flute or the harp, do not give distinct notes, how will any one know what is played?
9 So with yourselves; if you in a tongue utter speech that is not intelligible, how will any one know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air
See! You need interpretation of your gibberish for it to come from God!!!!! What those hundreds or thousands of people utter cannot be interpreted and is just gibberish!
The verses you quote disprove the conclusion you make. The reason Paul told these people-- with the genuine ability to speak in tongues--about interpreting tongues is because it is possible to speak in tongues without interpreting it to edify the congregation.
I notice this is a common theme of yours on this topic. Your assertions and opinions do not tend to match up with what the passages of scripture actually say.
Also, I notice you seem to have some stereotype in your mind. You mentioned people screeching in tongues. You may have seen some video clip. You can probably find churches in the mountains where preachers sound like they are hyperventilating, and people yell and holler in tongues.
It also seems like you may be unaware of interpretation of tongues. My experience with speaking in tongues in church growing up is that an individual would give a message in tongues and someone else would interpret the tongue. From time to time, I've been in churches where they encouraged everyone to speak in tongues at the same time. But that is certainly not the case with all churches that have people who speak in tongues. I grew up in churches that believed in tongues being interpreted.
