Paul says ..........................................
It would appear that there tongues of men and of angels..i know I have spoken probably about 10-12 different languages but I have no idea what is being spoken..maybe that's why Paul says He who speaks in tongues speaks not unto men but God.
.....................................
Paul also said "I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth"
Why do you only care about part of what Paul said?
As for my highlighted portion of your quote, "maybe"? You don't know? Why not? Wisdom is a more desired gift than tongues. Why did you ask for the weakest, less desirable gift?
.............................all these are gift that can and are abused yet they all happen today none of them have ceased. And God is still trusting us with them....
Let me ask you a question. Is the word of God perfect? Well, is it? Of course it is.
Tongues were a sign for unbelievers. They are no longer necessary today.
In 1 Corinithians 13 Paul is speaking about tongues. Make no mistake, that is the subject matter. What did he say? He said "But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."
The perfect word is here. Tongues are passe. Why don't you people grow up as Paul instructs you to?
Yes there is tongues today and no we do not need tongues today..............................................My Gift is the discernment of the Spirits and i do not want the Gift of tongues!
Correct. They are here, but they aren't from God. If the people that have "tongues" today had asked instead for the gift of discernment, they would be able to see that as you and I do.
How do I know I'm right? Because I believe in, follow, and study the word of God. I asked for knowledge and understanding, wisdom, and He gave it to me. Does that mean I'm right? It means the word of God is right.
"Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord" ............Let us reason together. You think that means sit down with God, maybe discuss something and have some give and take?
No, it means let us be right together. If you're doing something the word tells you not to, you're wrong. Know what Christ said about those that claimed to worship Him when it was pointed out to them the error of that effort?
He said "But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity."
Is that
really what you want to hear on that day? Well? Is it?
