Maybe you've missed the last 5 posts that I've quoted extensive Scripture. Go read up on those. I'm done quoting Scripture to people who simply ignore them.
"If no one understands then by extension only God would understand"
Yes, exactly.
"Only by impressing a false narrative can you conclude that only God understands makes the tongues an unknowable language."
False narrative seriously?
1. Paul doesn't understand his own tongues.
2. Paul says if you speak in tongues use an interpreter.
Why do you need an interpreter if tongues are the interpreter, Roger?
If tongues are a "knowable language" why does Paul say he would rather prophesy than speak in tongues when he's around people? The issue with "your narrative" is that you forget that Paul is comparing tongues with prophesy. And because your answers don't contain the understanding or desire of prophesy, they can not be completely correct.
Instead of addressing the actual chapter, you bounce around to OT and whatever else to prove your points. But let's get back to the actual chapter at hand...
"Paul said do not forbid tongues. So no church should say English only or Spanish only but all are welcome in the assembly."
No church should say English or Spanish only? What? What kind of multi-language churches do you go to? Are you really suggesting that Paul is saying that we need to have an interpreter of every known language at hand? You think that's why Paul wrote this?
Here's another question for you Roger.
If Paul was talking about known languages, why does Paul say I wish you all would speak in known languages, but especially you would prophesy?
What is the difference between known languages and prophesy Rog? Why does Paul continually compare the two?
Since you say I don't understand 1 Corinthians 14 as well as you do. Please help me out here.
And here's another one for you buddy. Why does Paul say that speaking in tongues (or known languages as you call it) builds themselves up, but NOT other people? That kinda sounds like Paul is saying that tongues is
unknowable.
Can you help me interpret this Scripture with your understanding that tongues is knowable?
1 Co 14:4The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but the one who prophesies builds up the church.
