wait.....so you're saying Parham's notion that tongues were known languages was wrong?
(Not at all, he thought they were unknown languages of peoples, ethnicities and nations)
in reality, tongues was always unknown sounds?
(How can languages be unknown sounds?)
it was never real languages?
(How did you arrive at that? Have you ever heard languages that seemed foreign but yet were coherent?)
and what do you mean he "was wrong about the meaning of the revival"?
(He thought it was for reaching the nations for the gospel by speaking the gospel in their native language)
revival of what? you said the gifts never ceased - so
revival of what?
(Are you dead yet Zone? So you don't ever need a revival, be honest.)
so you mean Parham was wrong about the real gift - which was always the unknown noises tongues (ecstatic utterings) that nobody understands thing?
( Not at all, you add to the report as a vulture swoops down onto roadkill)
(Nice additions to the train of thought B.T.W. - a true birdlike quality)
where did he get the idea tongues in The Acts of The Apostles was actual languages in the nations where we were born?
(In the nations where we were born? Who said 'WE'? Have you read Acts chapters 2&3?)
did anyone else hold that erroneous idea through church history (tongues in The Acts of The Apostles was actual languages)?
(Well, the mixed multitude that had came for the feast wondered why some crazy people prophesied in their own language)
so why was the early movement confused
at all, about any of it...if....uh.....um.....
