what is Speaking in tongues

[HealthAndHappiness]

I have a thread no many dtepped out yo answer. Did jesus make you clean and how do you know? .this thread is about speaking in
cloven New tongues

This is the most famous use of glossolalia that I know of. Charismatic
Lisa Gerrard is the singer.
She has a lovely voice and contributed greatly to the famous movie . She says that she is speaking in tongues.
I spent a day doing a deep dive on the topic looking for the translation. I couldn't find a linguist who could identify the language or the translation.
However, if the voice is considered a musical instrument, she certainly played it well.

 

[GWH]

im a bit confused on this

SIT was a miraculous ability to speak unlearned earthly languages that manifested the giving of the HS in fulfillment of prophecy on the day of Pentecost following Christ’s ascension, but it morphed into mere babbling by the time the church in Corinth was established, although Paul only regulated it rather than forbidding the practice.

I am getting a clearer picture now, and thank you for that. With regard to the "cloven" part of the new tongues. What does cloven mean?

It means “divided”. He is not using the term correctly. The tongues of fire that appeared in Acts 2 were “cloven” (KJV). The tongues in which people spoke by the Holy Spirit were not.

Example of Speaking in an Unknown Tongue with Interpreters

From the comments:

Half of the British audience: "Why does he need a translator?"

It would require a philologist.

Where does she say she spoke in tongues ? She says she spoke in a made up language she had spoken since she was 12

Paul is NOT saying that he prays in an unknown tongue. In 1 Corinthians 14 Paul uses a third‑class conditional clause—ἐὰν + subjunctive—to speak hypothetically about himself: “If I should pray in a tongue…” (ἐὰν προσεύχωμαι). This construction belongs to the subjunctive mood, the Greek way of expressing a situation that is possible but not asserted as fact. By choosing this form, Paul is not claiming that he personally prays in a tongue; he is creating a first‑person hypothetical to expose the logic of the situation. His point is that even if he himself were to pray in a tongue, the act would be unfruitful without interpretation, because the mind would remain unengaged. The grammar signals that Paul is reasoning from a hypothetical scenario, not describing his own practice, in order to show that intelligibility—not ecstatic speech—is what builds up the church.
If you want, I can also craft a shorter version or one that highlights the contrast with 1 Corinthians 13’s “If I speak with the tongues of men and angels…” using the same hypothetical self‑reference device.


Exactly! Paul doesn't suggest that we ask someone else to interpret, he commands that the person speaking interpret.

You are trying to explain the miraculous from a natural perspective.

I leave you with this to consider, it is the Spirit who brings forth both the gift of tongues and interpretation from whomever he chooses. The experiences are miraculous, they have nothing to do with one's natural abilities. You would understand this if you accepted what's revealed in God's Word. Those who believe God will be used by Him to fulfill His purposes in whatever way He sees fit. I know this firsthand. I believed what's recorded in scripture; however, I never pursued spiritual gifts. Yet, one day, completely out of the blue, God used me to bring forth His message in tongues and afterward another believer interpreted. I did not cause it to happen God did. And what's so sad is those who refuse to believe God's Word will never be used by God to present His messages that have the ability to edify others.

You may want to ask God to give you revelation knowledge and wisdom.

If you accept what GW says you will have the same understanding as pope W.

No. You have learned an incorrect interpretation of what Paul said. I am helping you by correcting your view.

The point I’m making is simply about the purpose of each gift. Tongues is given as a Spirit‑empowered expression of praise that surpasses ordinary speech, and interpretation is given to convey the meaning of what was spoken so the church is built up. Interpretation isn’t a second miracle designed to translate a supernatural language; it’s a distinct gift with its own role—making the message intelligible, not decoding a foreign tongue. Keeping those purposes clear helps us understand how the gifts function together without collapsing them into the same activity.

God used me to bring forth His message in tongues and afterward another believer interpreted. I did not cause it to happen God did. And what's so sad is those who refuse to believe God's Word will never be used by God to present His messages that have the ability to edify others.

Did you know what you said before it was interpreted?

I don't need to ask God. He does what he wants.

Lisa Gerrard has an amazing voice/vocal instrument. I did not know that she had co-composed numerous
film scores with notable composers and artists, most famously earning a Golden Globe alongside Hans
Zimmer for Gladiator! She is also famous for singing in an invented, personal language. Often referred
to as "idioglossia" or the "language of the heart," she has been using this unique form of expression
since she was roughly 12 years old, says my search result

Where does she say she spoke in tongues ? She says she spoke in a made up language she had spoken since she was 12

It's been a long time since I read all of those articles and listened to interviews, so going from memory that was a question that I recall trying to determine. From articles presumed that she was raised in a Charismatic church and with fame distanced herself from religious stigma: However with the benefit of advanced search tech it looks like she had an affiliation with one ministry in the 1990s. That would have been past childhood so here's the only source doc that I have found now.

So this says she was baptised and filled with the holy spirit and given another language in 1996, but her singing for the Gladiator score was according to her in a language she made up when she was 12, which would be in 1973, since she was born in 1961

Thank you. She has a special niche that I haven't heard before.
I see that some have assigned her a different linguistic term.
When I look at the TV preachers from yesteryear, I never had reason to believe that they were doing anything different. The difference was that she had the ability to train her voice in a way that made it sound good. It seems that she doesn't claim that her glossalalia or idioglossia was a foreign language or spiritual gift like the others.

When I did the deep dive before AI, I recall that discrepancy.
My best Sherlock Holmes was that she became famous and it conflicted with the secularism of the entertainment world.
It seems like there's a little more information available while the old articles won't come up now.

I just finished reading the Bible and again reminded of this doctrine and that God's Word is not to be added to or changed.

Language Translations ,varies in meanings, so it helps to try get to the best word,in your language meaning . take the word GRoW . This is Not a great translation in English. Orig scripture in Hebrew or greek Aramaic chk out Grow is Parah and Parah = can bring life from the Dead and Parah is continuing liFe.. im just pointing > kjv is the best but still one needs to do homework
