I have seen nothing but deception, confusion and false prophecy come out of the speaking in tongues movement. holy laughter, drunk in the spirit, slain in the spirit.
In a word: foolishness
I so dislike the term slain in the Spirit. The Spirit raised Christ from the dead and does not slay anyone.
I have been overcome by the power of God to the point I was on my knees and ended up completely prostrate.
I think what we must understand is that just because we see foolishness and goofy things and we discern them correctly not to be part of a true move of the Spirit, does not mean we cannot simply disregard it all as false.
There are countless examples in the Bible of people, priests and worshipers who were unable to stand before the presence of the Spirit of God [2 Chron 5.13-14]
My opinion is that for Christians to dismiss everything they see is dangerous. I also believe to outright dismiss the Gifts found in Romans 12, 1 Cor 12, Ephesians 4 & 1 Peter 4, and the power and authority the Spirit gives us for Christian living is just as or foolish as holy laughter, rolling the floors, barking like dogs, producing gold dust and all the other foolishness that is not of God.
The Bible says God is the same and does not change. It also Says that he will give the Holy Spirit to those that obey him, that We are to baptized with the Holy Ghost and power.
Over the top Spirit filled antics is just as damaging as complete disbelief in the Gifts or that they are not needed for today and the cessation doctrine.
TO be honest, cessation doctrine started from former Spirit filled Pastors and Evangelists, and many who were affiliated with the Assembly of God denomination or Pentecostal Holiness movements, that saw foolishness and because of it, they got confused and divided and then emotionally scared they were dishonoring God. This was not the fear of the Lord, but natural fear. SO instead of sticking to God's word, regarding the operation of Gifts, etc, they let fear and disbelief overcome them and rule them. They decided to simply SHUT DOWN any operation of the gifts and 5 fold ministry offices operating in their churches.
When their denominations told them they would not cater to their new doctrine, many left and went into other Protestant denominations and mostly the Baptist denomination.
I aslo really dislike the fact that the only thing people attack and talk about are Tongues.
